to each their own, but i enjoy the time spent outdoors and the process of making my own tasty and healthy beverages from scratch

it isn't really that much work, either! dig up some roots, wash them and chuck 'em in a food processor until they're in tiny chunks, then roast them and use them as you would normally use coffee grounds. getting dandelions by the taproot is also a good way to make sure that dandelion will be gone for good if you don't want them in your yard

for people who like decaf, or who want a coffee before bed, or people who yada yada, whatever. it's just a nice drink. it's also supposed to be really good for your digestive health, among other things. i make this every spring from dandelions in my yard and it kicks ass. tastes and looks just like coffee and i can drink it anytime i want without worry
