I quit caffeine 20ish years ago, after many years' sporadic tries. I'm undoubtedly better off and happier without it, and the only thing I really miss from time to time is coffee ice cream.
I've made excellent decaf coffee ice cream, but that requires effort aforethought and ingredients and a frozen cylinder.
I just figured out this Polish stuff, dusted onto vanilla ice cream and mixed in, makes an extremely damn credible facsimile of good coffee ice cream. I bet it'll work great on chocolate ice cream, too.
It's roasted chicory, barley, and rye. Caf-Lib tastes the same, but its granules are coarser so it might take more mixing and softer ice cream.
