Mushrooms contain two chemical compounds known as psilocin and psilocybin that produce hallucinations and altered perception when consumed, known as magic mushrooms. While raw consumption can produce such effects, some people find tea making easier on the stomach while providing dosing control. Refrigeration is the best way to preserve magical mushroom tea as its storage will last about one week before any degrading takes place; there are other strategies available as well to keep its potency as long as possible.

One of the easiest and most reliable ways to preserve magic mushroom tea is by placing it in an airtight glass container with an airtight seal. This will prevent moisture and other contaminants from entering, while plastic bags don’t provide this feature – opting for vacuum sealed bags or mason jars will increase shelf life by eliminating extra moisture while keeping temperatures at an optimum level.

Mushrooms require special care in order to preserve both taste and quality, as well as protect their psilocybin content. Mushrooms are vulnerable to light and heat exposure which degrade the psilocybin levels; to preserve its contents effectively it’s crucial that mushrooms be stored in dark and cool locations with little light exposure; drying will help further decrease heat exposure risk.

Ginger can add an antiemetic effect that helps ease nausea from taking magic mushroom psilocybin. Psilocin can interact with serotonergic 5-HT3 receptors in the brain and cause nausea; however, gingerol and shogaol found in ginger root block these receptors and mitigate effects of psilocybin, thus decreasing nausea [2].

For an easier way to enjoy magical mushroom tea, it may be beneficial to use a coffee filter or gauze strainer to filter the liquid before drinking it. This will remove any unneeded bits of mushroom, while also helping the tea cool more quickly in the fridge. Furthermore, for optimal results it should be taken gradually over several hours rather than one large dose all at once in order to allow psilocybin time to metabolize and reduce nausea.

Finalizing mushroom tea preparation requires checking regularly for signs of spoilage. Moldy smell, sliminess, or excessive softness can indicate degraded mushrooms which should be discarded immediately. By following these simple steps, magic mushroom tea can easily last over one week in storage containers without losing its potency or flavor. These methods may come especially handy when travelling long distances, or transporting it between locations – you can quickly pour the contents of one container to another to continue enjoying your beverage without loss of potency!
