Hi,
i am currently in the process of joining the LDS church. My only struggle is giving up black tea. In the morning I usually have a cup of unsweetened black tea with a dash of milk in it. I just enjoy having a warm drink in the morning and am looking for an alternative. It's not the caffeine I am missing, it's just drinking something warm that isn't sweet or fattening.
i tried switching to hot cocoa, but it is way to sweet and makes me nauseous in the morning. Hot milk won't work either because I'm sensitive to lactose when I drink more than just a bit.
Maybe this is so hard for me because I grew up drinking tea with my family and it's kind of a tradition and comfort. Water and tea are the only 2 things I drink.
I really feel a connection to the church and have been reading the scriptures. I just don't want to get baptized and not live the full Word of Wisdom.
Does anyone have any advice?
