From Nature's Roast

100% Roasted Ground Chicory, Sustainably Grown
and Naturally Caffeine-free.

Raise a Cup to History and Health.
The chicory plant is a beautiful, blue-flowered perennial that’s been cultivated as far back as ancient Egypt. Originally used in tea and medicinal remedies, roasted chicory eventually became a warm drink enjoyed on its own and added to coffee across countries and cultures.

Historical Roots
Chicory root has been roasted, ground and mixed with coffee for more than 200 years. This combination — likely originating in Holland — was introduced to France around 1801. Sixty years later, the country was exporting more than 16 million pounds of chicory annually.

A New Orleans Ritual
By 1840, New Orleans was the second-largest importer of coffee in the United States. During wartime, this prized bean was much harder to find, so chicory root was used to stretch drinkers’ precious coffee a little further. Today, savoring a steaming cup of coffee with chicory, as well as brewed chicory in its pure form, are treasured local traditions in this iconic city.

Easy to Make and Good for You
To prepare Nature’s Roast 100% Roasted Ground Chicory, simply brew like coffee using your French press, coffee machine, pour-over or other favorite coffee brewing method. Add your favorite milk and sweetener, if you like, and it’s ready to enjoy!

Fresh-brewed chicory is not only delicious, but it also fits perfectly within a healthy, all-natural lifestyle:
- 100% plant based
- A caffeine-free alternative that delivers a rich, coffee-like experience
- Naturally gluten-free
For traditional New Orleans style coffee with chicory, try mixing one part Nature’s Roast 100% Roasted Ground Chicory to two parts ground coffee. Experiment with the proportions to suit your taste, or add aromatic spices like cinnamon or nutmeg for more flavor.

I’m really missing New Orleans for some reason as Mardi Gras nears, so I’m indulging in assorted on-theme treats. I couldn’t leave tea (or in this case, a tisane) out of the equation! This ground roasted chicory root from a New Orleans-based company perfectly hits the spot. It’s nutty, with a bit of an almost chocolatey note. It has just a bit of sharpness or acidity, just enough to be reminiscent of coffee. While I liked it just fine straight, I ended up adding oat milk for a creamier take. All that’s missing now are the beignets…
