What’s your opinion about adding chicory to coffee? I know there’s a few places, like Café du Monde in New Orleans that offers coffee with chicory. It’s also sold as a mix in grocery stores in France.
I started trying it recently by adding a small teaspoon to my coffee in my French press and it gives a really smooth brew.
What do you think? Are you a purist? Have you tried it? What’s your opinion?
Chicory in coffee? Probably not. Brewed chicory though? Not bad but it’s just another drink imo. Blue Bottle also does a chicory drink that’s pretty good.
I do drink it by itself in the afternoon. Coffee will keep me awake and anxious all night otherwise.
Blue bottle does the NOLA style, or New Orleans and it’s delicious, one of my favorite treats.
