Is Maca Coffee an Alternative to Caffeine?

If you’re like many men and women around the world, you started the new year with a set of new goals, and you put your best foot forward. But are you keeping up with those healthy changes that seemed so easy to promise yourself just a few weeks ago? 

 Maca and Your Morning

Everybody knows that breakfast is the most important meal of the day. Whether or not you’ve managed to make yourself a healthy, delicious smoothie every day like you promised, there’s one part of your routine that you swore you would take care of - that caffeine problem. Did you promise to cut down to just three cups a day, or did you find that perfect coffee substitute you were on the lookout for? If your goal for 2023 was to find a coffee or energy drink substitute, we’re happy to let you know that your search is at its end. We call our maca coffee the morning motivator, and there are lots of reasons why introducing it into your daily routine could signal good news for your personal health. 

There isn’t a single coffee alternative that won’t promise it’s the right fresh new take for you. The Maca Team can make its case for taking advantage of the new year to take those steps towards adding maca to your coffee, or adopting it as a tasty coffee replacement entirely.

  

Adding Maca to Your Coffee

If you’re not ready to give up on your morning order from the drive-through cold turkey, consider adding maca powder or maca liquid drops to your cup of brew. Stir in some of our raw powdered tricolor maca to your usual drink, remembering that the best dose for you will be dependent on the type of maca you’re incorporating into your regimen as well as your height, weight, and other factors. As always, the best place to start is with a meeting with your certified medical health professional. Starting low, browse our selection of organic maca powders for a teaspoon or two of support towards a healthy libido, increased stamina and endurance, and a clean energy boost that won’t leave you feeling jittery afterwards. 

What about liquid maca? Take a look at this overview on our maca root liquid extracts. They contain the exact same nutrients and compounds of traditional powdered certified organic maca, at a dosage that’s more easily measured and absorbed in liquid form. If you’d like to try our different liquid maca formulations, you can even purchase a liquid maca extract sampler so you can test them out for yourself at home. Add a dropper of organic maca essence to your mug with your usual creamer and sweetener and feel the difference.

Maca Coffee

Unlike the kinds of energy drinks you’ll find at the convenience store, our morning maca energy blend is naturally rich in necessary vitamins, amino acids, antioxidants, and more. It’s available sweetened and unsweetened, and it’s made from a handful of simple organic ingredients including our tri-color gelatinized maca powder and raw cacao in a flavorful blend that’s just as good as anything you could get from a donut shop; and it’s better for you besides.
