Go organic with these 25 homemade coffee creamer recipes

(NaturalNews) To enhance your coffee drinking pleasure and avoid the toxic flavored creamers on the market, here are 25 ways to do that. First the basic instructions.

Choose the milk and cream or half-and-half that's as healthy as possible, usually organic grass-fed cows will give you that. If you prefer non-dairy milks, make sure you check out the ingredients closely. Avoid soy alternatives.

Next, choose a sweetener that's non-GMO and is minimally processed. Raw honey, turbinado, sucanat, muscovado, brown sugar, pure maple syrup all molasses are all possible choices. White sugar can be used in place of turbinado if it isn't available, but you should always avoid processed food items when possible.

When you have your flavoring choice and sweetener together, warm up 3 cups of half-and-half or 1.5 cups of milk and 1.5 cups of cream sufficiently to dissolve the flavored powders and sweeteners of choice. Here's the list of 25 flavors mixtures, courtesy of The Organic Prepper.
