Basic Mushroom Latte Recipe
With a whole lot of kicking and screaming, I nixed caffeine and replaced it with an earthy alternative: mushroom coffee. Let’s dive into why fungus has made a comeback.

- 1 individual mushroom coffee packet (or 1 tablespoon of a mushroom blend)
- 6 fluid ounces hot water
- 1-2 fluid ounces milk hot or cold
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup
Optional
- Dash cinnamon
- 1 shot espresso
Add mushroom mix, hot water, and maple syrup to a mug and froth or stir.
In a separate cup, froth the milk until foamy.
Top the mushroom latte with the frothed milk, and enjoy!
- Blend well – I like to give any of these mixes a really good blend… I mean a really good blend! I highly recommend using a frother or an extra-strength stir. MUDWTR comes with a hand blender or you can use an immersion blender or frother to make sure you don’t have sediment at the bottom of your cup.
- Add some extras – for extra taste or a nutritional kick, you can add anything you like. I personally prefer to add some maple syrup or honey as a sweetener as most brands don’t have added sugar. You can add coconut oil to kick up the thermogenic properties, a small spoonful of nut butter for a creamy twist, a scoop of protein powder, 1/2 tsp of maca for hormonal support or extra spices like cardamom.
