As more consumers search for products that deliver wellness benefits quickly and conveniently, functional beverages like Space Tea Mushroom offer food companies an opportunity to deliver innovative drink options. As the first adaptogenic mushroom iced tea and lemonade beverage on the market, Space Tea offers delicious Organic Golden Mango, Summer Watermelons, Lemon Zero Hibiscus Zero Matcha Zero flavors featuring Reishi and Lion’s Mane mushrooms – offering consumers convenient health solutions.

Benefits

Adaptogenic mushrooms have grown increasingly popular as people search for natural ways to enhance their health. These fungi may assist the body with dealing with stressors by supporting and balancing its physiological functions, including immunity. These results could include reduced stress hormone production or encouraging antioxidant production; in addition, drinks containing adaptogenic mushrooms may contain polyphenols and bioactive compounds with anti-inflammatory properties that provide additional support.

Space Tea’s products contain non-psychoactive, adaptogenic Reishi and Lion’s Mane mushrooms for “uplifting energy, calm focus, mood-boosting, and mental clarity,” as per Heymman. Sempera Organics supplies them, as they have proven beneficial properties like helping reduce inflammation, protect nervous systems, support healthy blood pressure levels, increase cardiovascular health benefits, cognitive function enhancement and decreased stress. Furthermore, Reishi contains beta 1,3/1,6 glucans which have been linked with reduced stress levels, improved immune functions as well as providing improved immune functions as well as metabolic profiles.

These mushrooms can be extracted using either water or alcohol to produce a concentrate that can be added to beverages. Water extraction breaks down tough mushroom cell walls, releasing immune-enhancing components like beta-glucans. Alcohol extraction uses low temperatures and long simmering times in order to preserve delicate compounds while still extracting beneficial compounds.

Both methods use similar processes to maximize concentration of beneficial molecules, though each extract offers its own distinct advantages. Water extraction yields higher quantities of water-soluble compounds while alcohol extraction yields greater concentrations of alcohol-soluble polyphenols and bioactive molecules.

Heymman explained that as the functional drink market expands, Space Tea has focused on building its brand authentically while creating a wellness community in order to stand out from competitors, hosting music festivals to promote its beverages, tapping into its founders’ love of both music and space exploration which echoes throughout its branding, logo and packaging.

Space Tea plans to continue its national expansion by making its beverage available at more than 390 Sprouts Farmers Market locations – one of the fastest-growing retailers nationwide. Furthermore, Blueberry BOOST will soon be introduced containing 108 mg of caffeine as well as all its adaptogenic benefits from its original line.
