<p>Hey any suggestions as I am new to Paleo, I love my tea and coffee with milk. I use coconut milk but find it thin? Any suggestions would be so appreciated! </p>

Or I confess I just use half and half, don't like the extreme thickness and calorie load of heavy cream except as an occasional treat.</p>

Ghee (clarified butter) is technically "dairy" but the compounds that are considered to be potentially problematic (casein and lactose) are almost completely eliminated. It would be the same procedure as the coconut oil; toss a chunk of grass fed ghee into your coffee and blend it up to emulsify.</p>

<p>I stopped the coffee because I found my carb cravings wouldn't stop unless I wasn't drinking it - my understanding is that the caffeine forces the liver to give up its glycogen stores by converting them quickly to glucose. For me this made enough of an insulin spike that I would be crazy for carbs a few hours later. </p>
<p>Since I gave up coffee/caffeine the compulsive level carb cravings are gone. Had to go thru days of painful withdrawal though! That alone keeps me from being eager to go back, even if I miss it sometimes.</p>

When I have time, I blend ghee in my coffee (in Magic Bullet) which is better. My favourite, though, is 18% dairy cream, but I found it too binding.</p>

I found a recipe for "primal cream" (not original to me) which is one small egg blended in a can's worth of coconut milk. I think the protein in the egg helps give it some body and that mouthfeel I like from dairy cream. You can add some vanilla for flavoring if you wish. </p>
<p>I use it along with some coconut oil, and froth everything for a nice texture with my $3 Ikea battery operated frother. Yummy!</p>
