I attended a paleo conference last year and was SO bummed when I went to grab my morning coffee at the breakfast and there was no cream to put in it. There was coconut oil, coconut butter and ghee. I thought that was the most disgusting sounding thing but I had no choice but to try it because it was all that was there and I can’t stand my coffee black.
I put some coconut oil in it and thought it was okay..not my favorite.
Then my husband came home one day revved up about a new thing his colleagues were doing at work called bullet proof coffee. He put 1 tbsp. of coconut oil and 3 tbsp. of organic, grassfed butter into his coffee and stirred it. Still sounded disgusting.
However, something made me want to try it a few weeks ago and now I can’t live without it. If you don’t want to drink coffee, you can make it with dandy blend instead (an herbal coffee replacement that really does taste like coffee). I make mine in a minute in the morning by just heating up the butter and the coconut oil in a small pan and then throwing it all into my vitamix. It doesn’t take long at all (trust me I have no patience with anything that takes time in the morning) and it keeps me going for HOURS!
