Dandy Blend & Reishi Frothy Warm Drink

Add to hot, not boiling, water:

- 1 level Teaspoon Reishi powder

- 1 Heaping Tablespoon Dandy Blend Powder (Dandy Blend is a very fortifying Dandelion powder blend that tastes great and is a good coffee/tea substitute. You can order it online, or find it at Natural Grocers. Or ask you local health food store to stock it if they don't have it.)

- 1 teaspoon coconut oil (if desired.)

- 1 glug of Coconut Milk, Almond Milk, Hazelnut Milk, or Hemp Milk (unsweetened) You can omit the water and add all of the ingredients to the hot milk of your choice if you want it extra rich.

- 1 Teaspoon or more of Maple Syrup or Honey (or Stevia if you have a taste for it.)

Kids love it, too, and it helps sustain their immune systems through the winter.
