Barleycup facts for kids

Barleycup is a popular instant drink made from roasted grains. It's a great choice for people who want a warm, tasty drink but don't want caffeine, which is found in coffee and tea. You can find Barleycup in many countries, including the United Kingdom, Ireland, Norway, Sweden, Denmark, Malta, and Hong Kong.

Barleycup was first made by a British company called Ridpath Pek Ltd. Later, in 2004, an American company named Smithfield Foods Inc. bought Ridpath Pek Ltd. and combined it with another company to form Smithfield Foods Ltd. UK. In 2013, the Barleycup brand was bought by “Grana” Sp. z o.o., a company that had already been making these drinks. When Grana took over, they updated the packaging and labels.

In 2014, a new version of the drink was released: Barleycup with Dandelion. Today, you can find several types of Barleycup products in stores, such as:

• Barleycup powder (in 100g and 200g sizes)
• Barleycup granules (200g)
• Barleycup Organic (100g)
• Barleycup with Dandelion (100g)

What is Barleycup Made Of?

Barleycup is made from simple, natural ingredients. The main ingredients are roasted barley, rye, and chicory. The special Barleycup with Dandelion also includes dandelion root and sugar beet. These drinks are good for you because they don't have any artificial additives, lactose (a sugar found in milk), or dextrose (another type of sugar). Because it tastes and looks a lot like coffee, Barleycup is a popular choice for those looking for a drink without caffeine.
