Japanese Man Invented Caffeine-Free Coffee Made from Garlic

After saying 'Adios' to his professional career, the Japanese man spent lots of time in conducting researches for making coffee with garlic.

Coffee has become a part of our everyday life, from cappuccinos to espressos. We start our day by sipping a strong cup of coffee and it has become our favourite beverage when we meet our friends or go on a date.

However, the caffeine present in our favourite morning drink has its own disadvantages. It can be really harmful to our health. A 74-year-old Japanese man, Yokitomo Shimotai, has created a drink that tastes like coffee, but is caffeine-free and made entirely of garlic.

Drinking Coffee may Not Treat Parkinson's Disease
Busting the myth, a study has recently revealed that drinking coffee may not reduce symptoms of Parkinson's disease.

‘Yokitomo Shimotai, a Japanese man, has invented a caffeine-free version of coffee made from garlic. Loaded with health benefits, this drink can be used as an alternative for coffee-bean coffee which contains caffeine, an unhealthy component.’

The invention was, however, by accident. It happened after a cooking blunder that happened 30 years ago. A man named Yokitomo Shimotai burned a steak and garlic while waiting tables at his coffee house in Aomori Prefecture.

After Shimotai retired, he began researching more on the drink. After trying a number of times, he finally found a recipe that he was satisfied with.

To make the unusual drink, he used an electric furnace to roast the garlic, after cooling it, he mashed up the garlic for dripping.

Coffee Mugs In Office May Contain Fecal Bacteria
Cloth or sponge used to wipe the coffee cups contain E.coli which is found in the feces and can cause digestive problems.

The beverage was discovered 30 years ago, but it took the man over two decades to develop the recipe he would eventually be satisfied with. Nowadays, the coffee shop owner is using his own patented technology to produce the coffee-like drink.

Shimotai believes that the beverage can be a good alternative to coffee for pregnant women and elderly people as it contains no caffeine and thus doesn't cause insomnia or high-blood pressure.
