It’s that time of year. The dandelions are out in full force. If you’re wanting a super healthy drink that tastes like coffee without the acid. Then this is for you. INGREDIENTS Dandelion Roots INSTRUCTIONS Scrub roots, drain, and place on a baking sheet. Roast at 200 °F (93.33 degree Celsius) until roots are dark and dry (about 4 hours).
Cool and grind roots with a coffee grinder. Store in covered jar until used.
Add 1 heaping teaspoon of roasted roots to 1 cup of water. Steep for 3 minutes. Strain and serve. Add cream and/or sugar to taste. Pretty tasty let me tell you.
Waking up to sunshine is sure a treat. Today though we will see increasing clouds with some showers entering into the picture. Much the same tomorrow as today. If we do get rain tomorrow it will happen in the morning. Temperatures this morning were sitting at 6.4 C | 43.52 F Highway 522 is good other than being a bit rough here and there. Travelling should be good. The lakes are all clear of ice these days with more cottages are being opened every day. Population of Port Loring is growing as each day passes us by. Just until Fall then it gets back to normal. Today I will do a some mowing if the rain holds off. I did have my firewood delivered yesterday, so we have heat for winter. We now have to pile it and with these black flies it might be a chore, if they are too bad I will just wait. With that I am off for my morning cup of coffee and a bite to eat, then will see what the day has in store. One just never knows. GW
