☕✨ My “Magical Mushroom Coffee” That’s Changing My Mornings (and Maybe Yours Too!)

in #health • 9 days ago

Happy Friday dear #hivecommunity 🎉

Have you seen the commercials about magic coffees that keep you awake, focused, and energized all day? I have!

I have nothing against it, but I think we can make the same kind of coffee ourselves.

Lately, my mornings have turned into something I actually look forward to — all thanks to my magical mushroom coffee. It’s creamy, cozy, energizing, and packed with functional mushrooms that give my routine a gentle wellness boost without overwhelming my system.

I usually make it with Turkish coffee, a bit of lactose-free milk, and sometimes cinnamon or honey depending on my mood. But the real superpower comes from my 7-mushroom blend:

🍄 My Mushroom Blend (7 functional favorites)

Reishi – calming, grounding, and perfect for slow mornings.

Chaga – antioxidant-rich and naturally supportive.

Shiitake – nutrient-dense with valuable polysaccharides.

Maitake – packed with beta-glucans and a soft earthy depth.

Lion’s Mane – the wellness world’s favorite for focus and clarity.

Cordyceps – traditionally linked to vitality and smooth energy.

Tremella – the “beauty mushroom” known for hydration and skin-friendly polysaccharides.

(And yes… sometimes I add extra Lion’s Mane, because why not give your brain a little morning hug?)

The preparation is very simple.

Here I used Turkish coffee that I had brewed, I put one teaspoon of mushroom mixture and 1/2 teaspoon of lion's mane in the cup.

I strained a very small amount of brewed coffee into a cup (I don't want to mix in the coffee grounds) and blended it with an electric cappuccino blender.

Add-ins that make it even better:

Cinnamon

Honey

In the original, these healthy coffees contain cocoa, but I'm still getting used to this version. I drink coffee with milk, but I try to avoid lactose by using lactose-free milk.

This cup feels like a tiny ritual — a warm moment of focus, nourishment, and good energy before the day begins.
If you’ve never tried mushroom coffee before… this might be your sign. ✨☕

I tried this but need to get used to it too.
Well written post, you also explained benefits of mushrooms.
I am wondering if some of them have same benefits cooked, like shiitake mushrooms

Shiitake mushrooms do.

That's cool. I hope you will post us some recipe

I've never heard of mushroom blend coffee before, but then I'm not much of a coffee drinker. The only reason I have a coffee machine in my kitchen is because it looks cool 😎

Are you aware there's a coffee community on hive? Next time you write coffee related content you can post there

Hey @livinguktaiwan 👋🏽 thanks for letting me know about coffee community 😊

Yeah, usually what you can buy as "mushroom coffee" is made of cocoa and that mushroom mix, I will try to switch to that but it will take time. Once I tried to wake myself up with tea and lemon juice but it didn't work (I wasn't persistent - I admit!)

You've managed to make me imagine the aroma of your coffee... I can only say that I sighed at your post... Sending you a hug of light!

So from now on you are only making this type of coffee? I would love to hear how it works in few days or weeks. Will you try cocoa version?

Persistence is the key! 😊 Well, it's almost 6 pm and I am still running on that one cup but we will see. Version with cocoa is possible.
