Mushroom tea is an increasingly popular way to satisfy your mushroom needs. These herbal infusions often include adaptogen herbs like reishi and ashwagandha that support relaxation and immunity as well as functional mushrooms (like cordyceps) proven to improve exercise performance or decrease stress. But it is important to be wary of potential side effects of certain kinds of mushrooms; always consult your physician or dietitian first if consuming any mushrooms.

An exciting aspect of making your own mushroom tea is being able to select your own ingredients. There are even ready-to-drink varieties. Some require steeping while others can be added directly into hot water for instantaneous enjoyment.

Make your tea from psilocybin-containing mushrooms most suitable to your health goals; for instance, lion’s mane has been proven to improve cognitive and memory; turkey tail can bolster immunity; and chaga acts as an anti-inflammatory. These mushrooms come in both dried whole form or chopped into formula.

Step one involves chopping mushrooms and submerging them in hot water for around 15 minutes, until their mushrooms have become completely immersed. Step two entails straining this magical potion through a fine mesh strainer just as you would for any tea, and enjoying your magic elixir in a cup!

As for how fast mushroom tea works, it typically kicks in faster than eating them whole or powdered form. You could feel its effects within 30 minutes depending on your metabolic status and environmental influences; otherwise it could take up to one hour.

Notably, when making your own psilocybin mushroom tea it is essential that you be aware of how much you consume at one sitting as this could result in an overwhelming experience that is neither pleasant or beneficial.

Sometimes the amount of psilocybin infused into your tea will be clearly indicated on its packaging, enabling you to easily monitor how much is in each serving. If unsure, start off with one teaspoon and increase as necessary; once finished brewing your tea store it in the fridge within one or two weeks to preserve shelf life – this is particularly crucial if using extract powders.
