Elena, Moscow. I like this drink. I suffer from hypertension, so I do not drink coffee. But a drink from acorns helps me out. Together with milk and sugar, really little is distinguished from coffee.
Olga, Ufa. I tried this drink not so long ago. She did not cook herself, but bought. I did not like it. A little resembles real coffee, to taste worse than chicory. I don't drink anymore.
Veronica, Krasnoyarsk. I purchased a ready -made drink. Very pleased. Not completely replaced them with coffee. But even in part, now I drink coffee less often. I like the taste of the ventricular drink. Of course, not real coffee, but decent to taste.
