Why doesn’t this exist?
Take dried beans, roast 'em, grind 'em, and brew some bean juice?
I have no idea if it would taste good or not, but we don’t know if we don’t try.
Edit: I need to see what dried beans I have and maybe go shopping. I will give this a try with a couple different types of beans and report back if I fart or not.

I didn’t know it is also used in Poland, here in Germany it’s mostly unheard of; other than by a few weirdos like myself.
It was common in France until my dad’s childhood, in the 60s. There were commercials for Ricoré (half coffee, half chickory) in the 80s. AFAIK, you can still buy it in all supermarkets.
Chicory coffee is still available in US, it has a history in New Orleans as well.
In Poland it was popular as a breakfast drink for children in the 1980/1990s when I was a kiddo
No it isn’t. Especially Caro Kaffee is a quite well known brand you can buy in every random supermarket.
I guess many GenZ kids wouldn’t know it, but everyone who had a grandparent that lived through the food sparse years after the war would.
I’m 34 and the only one I’d say, that would know much about it
