Coffee is more a ritual than anything for us so I am not sure I am ready to give up on this small pleasure. But we did reduce our consumption significantly to one cup per day, from several during our working years. Our only cup of the day is for breakfast, one cappuccino with almonds and a piece of dark chocolate. In the afternoon, we replaced coffee with Capomo also known as Mayan coffee, a coffee substitute from a tree nut native to Mexico that tastes like a mix of coffee and chocolate that we discovered when we toured the little coffee plantation where we buy our beans. Capomo has been used for centuries by the Maya and other Indigenous groups and is still used to this day in many parts of Mexico and Central America. It does not contain caffeine but it does give you an energy boost and contains a good dose of anti-oxidants, Amino acids, potassium, fiber, calcium, tryptophan, iron, zinc, and vitamins A, B, C, and E. We get both our roasted coffee beans and capomo from a small producer a few kilometers from our place. The owner told us they eat the leaves, much like spinach, the seeds can be eaten boiled like potatoes, and they are delicious with honey. The juice is also very sweet. We only get the ground roasted nut and drink it like coffee but we plan to experiment with the rest of the plant.
