coffee, tea or.....

 ..........a coffee alternative 😃

My cousin introduced me to Barlico, a coffee substitute from Egypt. It taste so good like a real coffee but it uses roasted barley and chicory roots. Barley is high in fiber, folate, potassium and vitamin B6. It is also an anti oxidant drink and may help in lowering blood pressure, cholesterol and high sugar spike.

I have tried the plain black one with no added creamer and sugar. 

At first I was quite hesitant to try it but after seeing my cousin take it like water 😄 I gave in. Surprisingly, it taste like real coffee and could not believe that it was really not coffee 😀

I also tried the 3-in-1 variant, and it also taste good...very much like a coffee with creamer.

I plan to hoard some and bring it home to San Francisco as a "gift" for my family and friends😃

Coffee? With me? If you are in Dubai, I would love to have a cup of Barlico with you 😊
