I quit coffee three months ago for my anxiety, but my mornings feel completely empty without a warm drink. Herbal tea feels like hot flavored water, and decaf coffee still triggers my acid reflux if I drink it on an empty stomach.

A coworker suggested swapping acidic drinks for a starchy vegetable base to coat the stomach. I tried mixing a spoonful of ube superfood powder into hot oat milk. Since it's just pure purple yam, the acidity is zero, it's incredibly gentle on my stomach, and it has a rich, nutty vanilla profile. For people who use clean alternatives, what does ube taste like compared to matcha or taro?
