Chicory Coffee
Chicory coffee (or chicory root beverage) is a caffeine-free coffee alternative that's safe while breastfeeding. It has a rich, slightly bitter flavor similar to coffee. Pure chicory contains no caffeine, while New Orleans-style coffee blends chicory with regular coffee (and will contain some caffeine). Chicory root is a natural prebiotic fiber (inulin) and is well-tolerated by most people.
