Medicinal mushrooms are an incredible superfood with multiple health benefits that span from anti-ageing properties, immune support, brain health benefits and weight management to weight control, fiber, vitamins minerals antioxidants. Tea is the ideal way to harness their potency; in this article we’ll demonstrate how you can make mushroom tea dried to produce a healthy and tasty beverage!

At the core of mushroom tea creation is cutting your desired amount of dried mushrooms into small pieces – the smaller they are, the greater their surface area will be and thus how much psilocybin they’ll absorb when immersed in hot water. Place these pieces into a tea infuser, place in hot water cup for 15 minutes then remove infuser and strain into another cup; repeat step 1-3 whenever necessary until desired concentration has been achieved.

Decocting medicinal mushrooms such as chaga, birch polypore or lion’s mane can make an exceptional mushroom tea infusion experience; simply simmer them in hot water for up to 30 minutes in order to create decoctions which provide more intense flavors and nutrition than simple infusions. When making decoctions be sure that heat levels don’t go beyond 30 degrees so as not to burn the fungi!

Mushroom tea can be an ideal alternative to caffeinated coffee for morning routines. Easy and inexpensive to make, mushroom tea will give your energy levels a healthy boost while simultaneously supporting the body’s natural immune response and taste much better than any regular cup of coffee!

Start your day right with a warm cup of chaga mushroom tea to boost iron, vitamin C, potassium, and zinc consumption as well as provide antioxidant protection from damage. Or if you’re feeling anxious, having some reishi mushroom tea might also help ease nerves while decreasing stress levels; just be careful that too much of this tea may lead to sleepiness for some people.
