Coffee Substitutes and Adjuncts

Coffee substitutes, or surrogates, are the parts of roasted plants and other sources which are made into a product which, with hot water, provides a coffee-like brew and serves as a coffee substitute or as a coffee blend. 

Coffee substitutes have been known for a long time, as exemplified by the coffee brew made of chicory roots Cichoricum intybus var. sativum) or by clear drinks prepared from roasted cereals.
