Hot drinks without caffeine?

[Boltoncasey24]

6 +4 feeling so sick! Can't stomach anymore cordial and my one coffee a day makes me sick now too! any suggestions for a nice hot drink with no caffeine and not a lot of sugar, I have tried horlicks and way too much sugar for my liking! Thanks in advance x

Most herbal/fruit teas apart from green tea (although the caffiene content is low in green tea) Hot water and a slice of lemon is good and ginger is good for nausea so you could get some fresh ginger and grate that into a mug

Have you tried cocoa without sugar?

I drink peppermint tea or red bush! I've gone off tea a bit atm!

Have you tried just boiled water? It's got the comfort of a hot drink but nothing in it to make you feel poorly.

It took me two cups and now I'm hooked! I used to drink a lot of coffee to get me through the day and a few cups of tea. I had a day or two with a headache but fine now.

Pukka Three Ginger tea was about all I could stomach. Although be aware that drinking it will probably get you some knowing looks from colleagues!

Thanks for your suggestions guys! I will try them all, the ginger tea sounds great!

Red bush tea with milk is pretty much like "normal" tea. I drink it all the time. Best is Tick Tock or Teapigs (more expensive and naturally sweeter as blended with honeybush). Yum.

I could only stomach ginger tea fresh ginger with some honey or brown sugar 😂

I like hot squash - orange, blackcurrant etc. Make them weak if you can't stomach strong flavours.

I like warm apple high juice, or Red bush tea/ Rooibos just like a sweeter version of normal tea!

Decaf tea with no sugar x

Barleycup is nice. You can get it from health food shops. It’s sort of like coffee but not, you drink it with milk.

Or decaf earl grey tea with no milk, I lived off that in my first trimester

I just switched to decaf :)

Decaf tea

All the Pukka teas got me through my pregnancy.

The three mint is also good and the chamomile and Manuka honey.

There are two turmeric ones that are surprisingly delicious - the majestic one has a small amount of caffeine and turmeric active is caffeine free.

I've heard you're not supposed to overdo it with liquorice tea in pregnancy as it lowers blood pressure.

Gareth Gates coconut tea Cuppanut is delicious - really pricey but I just think of all the money I’m saving on wine 😉

Yorkshire decaf tea is pretty nice, I can't tell the difference. Decaf azera instant coffee not bad either when you fancy it again. Not a big fan of herbal teas but there are tons out there to try.

T2 have a nice selection of fruit, herbal and, floral teas. Roobois or Redbush is also caffeine free.

Bovril

Bovril?

Another vote for redbush. I drink it by the bucketload. I'm sure it tastes pretty much like regular tea but I haven't had that for so long that I've forgotten what it tastes like.

Also another vote for plain boiled water from time to time.

Decaf coffee (not instant). Half a teaspoon of marmite dissolved in hot water.

If they're not too sweet, then hot Ribena a x hot chocolate.

Xpost dontall!

Im6+4 too and living on honey and lemon, it doesn’t smell so I can tolerate it!
