Tips for taking minocycline with food or drink? (Trouble swallowing pills)

Hi everyone, I'm having trouble taking my minocycline pills. I tried with just water but got esophagitis. Then I tried applesauce, but read that vitamin C can affect absorption. Next I tried non-dairy yogurt, but saw calcium can bind to it. The yogurt only had 2% calcium, so maybe that's okay? Any other ideas for what I can mix it with? I can't have dairy. I'm halfway through my 2-week course and really want to make sure it's absorbed properly to clear up this infection. Thanks in advance for any suggestions!
