A great way to ensure a better tasting mushroom tea is to boil all of its ingredients together in a saucepan or pot before steeping for 10-12 minutes in an infuser and straining with a tea strainer – especially when creating Reishi mushroom tea, as its earthy taste can be further enhanced with spices or sweeteners.

Though there are multiple methods of mushroom tea preparation, selecting top-quality ingredients will ensure you’re making the most of each cup of tea. Look for brands using organic mushrooms with multiple benefits; then you’ll know your cup is made with quality ingredients and is safe for daily consumption.
