Does Mushroom Coffee Taste Like Mushrooms?
Does mushroom coffee taste like mushrooms?
Short answer: no, not really. A well-made mushroom coffee tastes like coffee. Rise & Shine has a smooth coffee flavor with subtle nutty, earthy undertones - not a strong mushroom flavor. The functional mushrooms (organic lion's mane and chaga) are blended in as fine extracts, so the cup still drinks like your usual morning coffee.
Why people worry about the taste
Most people expect a mushroom drink to taste savory or earthy. Because Rise & Shine is built on coffee bean extract, the coffee flavor leads and the mushrooms sit quietly in the background.
How to make it taste its best
Mix one tablespoon (7 g) into 8 oz of hot water, then add a splash of your favorite milk, creamer, or sweetener and stir or froth. Many people drink it just like a regular coffee or latte, or stir it into a protein shake.
What is in every cup
Coffee bean extract, a 2,639 mg Nootropic + Mushroom Blend (organic chaga and lion's mane fruiting body, L-theanine, rhodiola, ginseng), and 4,855 mg of grass-fed collagen. No added sweeteners or artificial flavors. Contains bovine collagen (not vegan or vegetarian).
