How to Make Mushroom Tea at Home
Mushroom tea has become an acclaimed beverage with numerous health benefits, making it a beloved drink among celebrities such as Gwyneth Paltrow and Mischa Barton. But what exactly is mushroom tea, and how can I make my own cup at home? In this article we’ll go over all aspects of mushroom tea as well as give tips for creating the ultimate mushroom tea experience!
There are various methods of creating mushroom tea, but loose-leaf is the most popular approach. All you need for this method are your desired mushrooms and a pot. First, wash and prepare your mushrooms by brushing off any dirt or debris present on their surfaces, before grinding into powder to aid in extraction process. When all this has been completed, place them into boiling water in a pot, leaving to steep for 10-15 minutes and strain your tea before enjoying!
Pre-made sachets offer another convenient method for creating mushroom tea, and are easily available online or at some stores. Each one contains both tea and mushrooms with a predetermined dosage you can follow – perfect if you’re short on time, or want to skip the cleanup process altogether!
Mushroom extracts offer an efficient and straightforward way to enjoy the therapeutic effects of psilocybin mushrooms without needing to cook them yourself. Available as liquid form, mushroom extracts can easily be mixed with hot or cold teas for maximum effectiveness. For the best results, we advise choosing high-grade mushroom extracts which have been lab tested and verified as pure.
Making mushroom tea using an extract requires adding the desired amount to hot or iced tea, stirring well to evenly disperse it throughout. You may also wish to include other ingredients, such as lemon peels, honey or spices for an enhanced experience.
Once you’ve perfected your mushroom tea recipe, experiment with different blends. With so many varieties of mushrooms that each have different effects and benefits to offer, finding your ideal mix should be relatively straightforward. Try creating tea blends that combine multiple benefits at once–such as Reishi and Ashwagandha tea to calm nerves before bed or Lion’s Mane Tea to improve brain power–to get started brewing the ideal cup every time – put on your mushroom tea-brewing robe and get to work – your mind and body will thank you!
