Had a sleepless night of tossing and turning, a big meeting coming up and onto that fourth cup of coffee for the day? Substitute that last cup for a hot caffeine-free beverage. Your body will thank you later!
So when the weather gets cold, you can rely on these three caffeine-free beverages to have you feeling warm and fuzzy in no time!
Golden Milk
They don’t call this beverage ‘golden milk’ for no reason, as the rich colour of turmeric offers a glistening effect. According to healthline, this warm beverage also incorporates invigorating spices such as ginger, cinnamon and black pepper. Other common additions include cardamom, vanilla and honey.
Make sure to heat the milk, add your ingredients, and you’re sorted with an amazing drink that’s packed with anti-inflammatory properties.
Rooibos Tea
This proudly South African caffeine-free beverage is a great replacement for coffee, especially when you need something to heat yourself up from the inside. This entirely herbal blend bursts with flavour, and is packed with antioxidants that’s ready to keep you energised throughout the day.
Broth or soup
A comforting snack that provides double the pleasure when you’re hungry and cold. Instant packets of vegetable broth is convenient for that on-the-go remedy to beat the winter chills. Make sure to check the salt content as some broths can be quite high in sodium. Choose a no-salt-added or low-sodium version instead.
