How to Make Reishi Mushroom Coffee
Mushrooms can provide your body with powerful immunity-enhancing tools, helping it fight disease and remain at peak health. Reishi mushrooms in particular contain beta-glucans that may inhibit or even stop cancer cell growth and stimulate natural killer cells to target cancerous cells*. Furthermore, Reishi may help alleviate chronic fatigue caused by stress or immune deficiencies or imbalances.
Reishi mushroom coffee has quickly become an emerging trend, mixing functional mushroom extract powders into instant coffee for an adaptogenic morning boost. Popular blends contain cordyceps, turkey tail, chaga and lion’s mane mushrooms for optimal energy, focus or relaxation effects.
While many opt to purchase mushroom coffee from commercial brands, making your own is an easy and cost-effective alternative. Plus, you can customize it exactly how you’d like and control quality ingredients!
To create Reishi mushroom coffee, simply combine equal parts cold-brew coffee with mushroom extracts and your preferred milk or nondairy alternative, stirring well to incorporate. Sip and enjoy as normal!
Add an extra special touch to your reishi mushroom coffee by topping it off with maple syrup or coconut sugar, cinnamon or ginger for extra flavor enhancement and mixing everything in a blender for a frothy reishi mushroom latte – it will surely start your day right!
