How to eat chicory

The advantage of Leroux Chicory drinks is that they can be enjoyed with milk, soy milk or water. In this way, chicory retains its sweet, gourmet taste and adapts to your every whim, as a hot or cold milk drink, prepared with water or as an infusion.

Leroux products, just as good with milk or water

It’s not always easy to enjoy a delicious hot drink without milk or stimulants. But Leroux Chicory makes it possible! Chicorée Soluble Nature, Caramel, Cacao and even Chicorée Liquide can be prepared with milk or water. All you have to do is choose the format: cup, mug, tumbler, glass, bowl – just adjust the doses! The base dose is 2.5 grams of chicory, the equivalent of one stick of Chicorée Soluble Nature, for 125ml of liquid.

Chicory infusion

Granulated chicory can also be taken as an infusion. Simply add 1 to 2 teaspoons of seeded chicory to 250ml of hot water for 5 minutes (in a tea ball, for example). Or decoction, with the same dosage, boil for 5 minutes, then filter through a coffee or tea filter. The seeds will diffuse into your beverage, giving it a sweet, caramelized taste, making it an ideal all-day drink. This is a common practice in Africa, where Chicory Grains are diluted in 20L pots of hot water, then sold by the cup.
