Mushroom tea offers an easy and delectable way to microdose psychedelic mushrooms, boost immunity or cognitive performance and add this ancient plant into your wellness regime. Perfect for sensitive stomachs who prefer milder experiences or simply wanting to add them as part of everyday wellness practices!

Mushroom tea is a drink prepared by steeping whole or powdered mushrooms in hot water for several minutes before infusing with herbs, spices and supplements to add additional flavors and health benefits. Mushrooms of all sorts – such as psychedelics, reishi, chaga or cordyceps can all be included for optimal mushroom tea results.

A mushroom brew can be enjoyed either alone, as a base for other beverages like herbal blends, coffee and cacao; or sweetened with honey or lemon juice to balance its earthy taste and make for an easier drink experience. Cinnamon, ginger star anise pepper are also good additions for adding depth of flavor – or perhaps try spicing things up by adding chili pepper for some heat and added spice!

Making mushroom tea requires any type of whole or powdered mushroom; however, Reishi mushrooms are particularly well known for their anti-aging and immunity-enhancing effects. Used since ancient medicine practices began using them, Reishi is recognized for reducing stress while improving immunity function and even sleep quality. Chaga mushrooms also offer many health benefits that range from increasing physical performance to improved sleep quality.

How long the effects of mushroom tea last depend on various factors, including your metabolism rate and consumption rate. Your metabolism speed determines how quickly you process and excrete psilocybin, which gets broken down by liver into psilocin upon ingestion – this substance appears in drug tests; so only consume the amount that fits within your limits.

If you are using mushrooms as part of an addiction treatment plan, it’s essential that you monitor their duration so as not to overdose. On average, most psilocybin-containing mushrooms last only 12 hours in your system when taken as whole mushrooms or capsules. Drinking mushroom tea takes significantly longer to be absorbed and produce results compared to taking a whole mushroom or capsule, so more than one serving may be required to see desired effects. Refrigerating your brewed mushrooms is also advised in order to prevent spoilage, which could have unpleasant or potentially dangerous side effects. Look out for signs such as mold growth, fuzzy surfaces and tears in packaging as indicators that your product has gone bad; such indicators should never be eaten or consumed.
