Certain types of mushroom tea can be created by a process known as ‘steeping’, when the raw mushrooms themselves or mushroom powder are soaked in hot water. Different types of mushroom tea can be made using a variety of mushrooms, for varying purposes. It’s also common for the mushrooms to be soaked with other tea and natural flavourings. Such as lemon, honey, cinnamon, ginger, chamomile and mint leaves. Superfood mushrooms (reishi, chaga, lion’s mane, shiitake, cordyceps, for example) have adaptogenic properties, meaning they can assist your body to manage balancing stress levels, help to maintain a healthy digestive system and promote an overall sense of ease and wellbeing.‡

Lion’s mane tea can be used to maintain healthy cognitive functioning; in areas such as memory and focus.‡ The research on lion’s mane mushroom brain benefits is fascinating.The most unique element of lion’s mane mushroom is its nerve growth factor (NGF), which has a number of benefits for maintaining brain function.‡ NGF is a type of protein which contributes to a healthy functioning nervous system.‡
Drinking different types of mushroom tea can have multiple benefits. Just like anything containing superfood mushrooms, mushroom tea acts as an adaptogen. Adaptogens are herbs or foods that help your body adapt to stress. These mushrooms are so rich in nutritional density, no matter which type of mushroom tea you decide to sample first, you can be sure you will be treating your mind and body with care - as each mushroom promotes an overall healthy functioning body and sense of calm.‡
What your mushroom tea tastes like will greatly depend on which mushroom you decide to try first - each coming with its own unique set of flavorings. Some are also much stronger than others. Lion’s mane, for example, has a much more delicate, sweeter taste than Chaga mushrooms - which can be quite bitter and earthy in comparison. Some mushrooms, such as Maitake and Resishi, have a slightly woody, spicy taste. At Rritual, there are no added flavors or sweeteners added to our products, allowing you to personalize your experience. Reishi is blended with cacao, cinnamon and ashwagandha. Offering protective antioxidants which also satisfy the senses.‡ Chaga is blended with schisandra berry, astragalus root, and eleuthero root. Lion’s mane is the least flavorful of the three, mixed in with rhodiola root and bacopa monnieri.
Luckily, making tea with mushrooms is relatively quick, easy and simple. If you’re opting for a Mushroom Powder Mix, rather than steeping the whole mushrooms themselves, simply add a chunky scoop into your favorite mug, and mix with 6 oz of hot water. You can add a herbal tea bag, or additional flavorful ingredients to suit your liking.
