Right now I’m testing out a new coffee. It’s close, not quite coffee, but it’s close. Chocolate Yerba Mate (my favorite tea), Honey, and Coconut Milk. But yeah, I’m gonna try and give up coffee as a new change I’m ushering in, starting the Paleo diet.

A big part of the diet is giving up sugars (yes honey is sweet), and I just can’t have normal coffee with honey or black, and so I’m trying out my favorite caffeinated tea with a coffee twist.

Honey is “Paleo,” but it is sugar. I’ve read it’s recommended to stay away from it, in other places that it’s health benefits outweigh the sweets it provides. But, the way I see it, it’s going to help me out artificial sweeteners. I usually pile on Splenda and creamer two or three times a day and I’m starting to feel like it’s actually making things worse.
