Portuguese term

cevada pronta

Portuguese to English Medical Food & Drink
The book on nutrition suggests people give up coffee and replace this with "cevada pronta". Ready-to-drink barley? Does anyone know hat we call this in English? I cannot imagine drinking it!

It's really a drink. It's "cevada em pó torrada solúvel"/"soluble roasted barley powder)" A few years ago it was a very common drink in Portugal. It is mainly used by those who want to avoid coffee. It can also be mixed with milk (has a similar flavor to "coffee with milk").

Are you sure it's for drinking? Maybe that's the quick barley, which cooks faster. Check these links:

But if you're sure it's for drinking, I've found this: " Torrado e em pó, pode ser preparado como café, porém sem cafeína. Por isso, desistir de café não significa que você fica com nada para beber de manhã, e esse hábito pode ser um pouco mais fácil quando um delicioso substituto quente está disponível."
In this case, maybe it's barley powder, but I don't know.
