How do I prepare SEVE Instant Chicory, and can I customize the strength?

Preparing SEVE chicory is straightforward. Because it is an instant powder, it dissolves quickly and completely in hot water. There's no need to brew or steep it like loose-leaf tea or coffee grounds.

You have full control over the strength of your drink. Start with the amount suggested on the packaging (typically one teaspoon per cup). If you prefer a milder, more subtle flavour, use less powder. For a more intense, robust cup with deeper roasted notes, simply add more powder. Stir well until fully dissolved.

Many people enjoy it plain, but it also pairs well. You can add a splash of milk, cream, or a plant-based alternative like oat or almond milk. A small amount of sweetener or a dash of cinnamon can also complement its natural bitterness. Since it's a dry powder, store the tin in a cool, dry place after opening to maintain its quality.
