Dr Jockers Comments:
The Dandy Blend instant herbal beverage is made up of the water soluble extracts of roasted barley, rye, chicory root, dandelion root and sugar beetroot. This is completely gluten-free as the gluten protein is not part of the water-soluble extracts. So if you have gluten sensitivity, you should have no problems with this at all…in fact, it was made for those who struggle with food sensitivities as coffee can be a common one.
This tastes really good and although I rarely ever drink coffee, this does taste very similar and is very enjoyable. Organic dark roast coffee has health benefits but some individuals are unable to metabolize it effectively due to a food sensitivity or adrenal fatigue. In these cases, it is much better to go with the Dandy Tea.
You can make this with a thinner carton variety coconut milk or you can make it into a meal replacement with thick organic coconut milk in the can. Using the thick coconut milk makes it virtually a breakfast or snack depending upon when you consume it.
You can also try adding different flavors of liquid stevia. I LOVE chocolate flavored, but you can find grape, vanilla, cinnamon and others. Enjoy!
This looks amazing Dr Jockers! Going to brew some up for Thanksgiving tomorrow! Thank you for sharing.

Recently I was in a health food store looking for a coffee substitute and the choices were a bit perplexing. I will get the Dandy Blend and try mixing it in my blender with hot water, coconut oil and stevia. Would like the health benefits of dandelion root so its all good. Thanks
Hey Dianne, yes Dandelion is so good for you and the Dandy Tea tastes wonderful! Let us know how you liked it!
This sounds wonderful. I love anything coconut. I see you said it is for anyone sensitive to coffee. I thought I was the only one. I was food allergy tested and coffee is my highest food allergy. I was always repulsed by the smell and they told me that was my body’s way of telling me it was not good for me. I read many places that coffee enemas are good to do but wouldnt dare, wondering what my body would tell me then. I only did the food allergy testing because parmesan cheese makes things in my sight disappear and then my face and arm goes numb so I wanted to find out what other foods to avoid.
Yes Carol many people go on eating foods they have no idea are causing them problems. Glad you found out which ones do not work for you! Enjoy the dandelion coffee!
Looks like Amazon does have an organic option 🙂
I love your site, and well researched content. Thank you!!
This is not gluten-free, correct? It sounds yummy.
Yes this is gluten free!
Yes! I have been drinking this with half T. butter, scoop of collagen, heaping T. of Dandy to 1 1/4c. of water. I froth it vigorously and then put the collagen in and froth for a few seconds. I love this and have been drinking for years.
Wonderful!!
Hi Dr Jockers, could we replace the Dandy blend herbal tea with carob powder? – with caffeine.
Thanks !
