Does dandelion coffee taste like coffee?

With subtle floral notes and a hint of sweetness, its flavor is vaguely similar to coffee, without the acidity and bitterness. When dandelion roots are mixed with ingredients like chicory, as seen in popular brands like “Dandy Blend,” it edges even closer to coffee territory in terms of taste.
