mushroom coffee has quickly become an alternative to regular coffee due to its unique blend of medicinal mushrooms like chaga, lion’s mane and reishi with traditional coffee beans, offering potential health benefits like immunity support, cognitive enhancement and stress reduction.

This functional beverage offers a balanced combination of organic, freeze-dried fair-trade coffee with extracts from lion’s mane, chaga and cordyceps mushrooms to provide a gentle energy boost that some users report also helps support cognitive function and focus.

MUDWTR

Wellness trendsters likely know of MUDWTR, the new coffee alternative using functional mushrooms instead of beans. Created by Shane Heath and featuring organic ingredients including functional mushrooms, Ayurvedic spices, cacao and less caffeine than a regular cup of coffee; adaptogens may help with managing stress and improving mental clarity while focus-boosting properties can be found in Lion’s Mane while Chaga contains high amounts of antioxidants to strengthen immunity systems.

Vegan and gluten-free mud water beverage comes in an elegant 30-serving tin for one-time or subscription purchases. Additionally, the company makes a creamer to add for a smoother taste – made with MCT oil and coconut milk, making it vegan friendly so those avoiding dairy can easily add their favorite creamer.

MUDWTR boasts a subtle flavor reminiscent of both chai and hot chocolate, featuring earthy tones with slight spices, as well as cacao notes. Perfectly suitable for mixing with milk, dairy-free creamer, honey or bulletproof coffee or lattes!

On MUDWTR’s website, one serving of MUDWTR costs $60; this may seem more costly than traditional coffee, but it’s an effective and delicious way to reduce caffeine intake. Also available at select health food stores. MUDWTR may help break your caffeine addiction!

Atlas+ Latter Superblend

Atlas+ Coffee Superblend is an all-in-one supplement, combining premium coffee with probiotics, collagen, adaptogens, nootropics and essential vitamins to promote wellness. Instead of juggling multiple supplements individually and complicated morning routines separately, the Superblend provides purposeful simplicity; promising improved health results after just one use and further growth over time.

The Superblend contains lion’s mane, cordyceps and chaga mushrooms for energy, clarity and focus, along with bovine collagen known to promote skin health. Reishi is also added for gut health benefits and immune support – Arabica beans provide a light yet smooth taste when used as the coffee source itself.

These single-serve pouches of mushroom coffee blends come with instructions on how to quickly mix water or milk for a cup of mushroom coffee within 60 seconds. Most mixes include instant coffee; however, others such as Everyday Dose mix and Joe’y don’t contain instant. Of those that do contain instant, each serving provides about 45-50 milligrams of caffeine – about half as much as in traditional cups of coffee.

Adaptogens such as Reishi can reduce stress while Turkey Tail and Cordyceps boost immunity. Chaga is known to promote calmness while also offering antioxidant benefits – no surprise these mushrooms can be found in numerous health supplements; however, reaping maximum benefit by pairing with high quality coffee.
