Coffee/Tea Sugar Cane as a Substitute for Coffee

From Wytheville Dispatch, of Wytheville, Virginia, November 18, 1863

My wife's father was a U of Ga Ag School grad & worked for the FmHA after WWII. He grew cane, among other things, in both his home garden and on a larger plot of land at the "home place" (which was and still is worked by his sister's children).

He knew about this "recipe" and fixed it for us--once...

Not my cup of tea--or coffee.
