Reishi mushroom is an adaptogen and immune booster. It assists the body’s natural ability to reduce stress, balance hormone levels and strengthen immunity against infections. Reishi is known as the “mushroom of immortality” for its longevity-increasing effects such as relieving fatigue, encouraging restful sleep and soothing frayed nerves.

Though reishi mushrooms may seem inedible in their natural state, they can be easily ground into a powder and combined with coffee beans to produce reishi coffee – a caffeine-free drink with lower acidity than standard coffee that’s suitable for many who wish to cut back or avoid caffeine completely.

At home, creating Reishi Mushroom Coffee couldn’t be simpler! Simply boil your preferred type of coffee before stirring in some ground Reishi mushroom powder with cinnamon, ginger and sea salt. If you don’t have Reishi mushroom powder on hand, lion’s mane or coral tooth powder works just as well to boost energy and support a healthy immune system.

If you don’t own a blender, simply mix all the ingredients in a saucepan on low-medium heat until a thick paste forms, strain, and enjoy as a latte. Reishi coffee can also be enjoyed without spoons during pregnancy and breastfeeding to give a balanced boost without caffeine’s potential side effects – just look out for local health food stores or online!
