Mushroom Coffee (Adaptogen Coffee)
This creamy mushroom coffee combines your favorite brew with finely blended mushroom powder for a smooth, rich drink without the mushroom taste.
Servings: 1
Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 cup oat milk or other milk
- 2 Tbsp ground coffee for drip coffee, through a filter. You can also use espresso
- 1/4 cup hot water for drip coffee
- 2 tsp maple syrup or sweetener of your choice
- 1 tsp mushroom powder reishi, cordyceps, lion's mane, chaga, turkeys tail, shiitake, etc.
- 1/4 tsp ground cinnamon powder
- 1/4 tsp vanilla extract or paste
Instructions
- Heat your water to around 195ºF/90ºC (it’s best to use this temperature, NOT boiling water, for coffee). Add the coffee and cinnamon to a coffee filter and pour in the water, allowing it to drip into a jar/your cup.
- Add the remaining ingredients (except the milk) to the glass and stir well.
- Add the milk - I like to froth it first using one of the milk frothing methods mentioned here.
Notes
- Using mushroom coffee blends: You can use mushroom coffee in multiple ways, including making black coffee, lattes, and even mochas.
- For caffeine-free coffee: You can use a coffee alternative like this date seed coffee or another option like dandelion root coffee.
- Experiment with mushrooms: Read the list of potential mushroom powders above and choose and experiment accordingly, to find your perfect blend!
