Dubbed the “mushroom of immortality” due to its impressive supportive properties, reishi mushrooms have been giving us powerful health benefits for about 2,500 years.‡ In fact, reishi mushrooms were once held in so much esteem that they were reserved exclusively for royalty in China. Who would have thought that fungus could be so regal?
Sometimes referred to as “king mushrooms,” reishi mushrooms are found in Asian countries such as China, Japan and Korea. They’re most commonly consumed in powdered form in soups, teas, hot beverages and herbal remedies.
Due to its natural bitterness, one of the best ways to enjoy reishi mushrooms is to make tea. This can be achieved through a cutting and drying process or by simply purchasing it in powdered form. According to Dr. Axe, reishi mushrooms typically contain little to no calories and only a small amount of dietary fiber and protein.‡
You’ll be glad to hear that making a fresh cup of reishi tea is an easy process and even easier if you decide to go the powdered reishi route.
If you’re using whole reishi mushrooms to make your tea, the process will take a little longer as steeping takes some time.
First, you’ll want to make sure each reishi mushroom has dried completely, then go ahead and cut the mushroom into long slices. Next, boil the water on low heat and simply add the mushrooms into the pot, allowing it to simmer for 2-2.5 hours. Pour the tea into your favorite mug and allow it to cool before sipping.
Not really keen on the taste? Reishi can have a bitter taste, so a teaspoon of honey, lemon or your favorite sweetener will go a long way.
If you’d rather skip the long steeping process, a reishi mushroom powder tea recipe may be the best option for you. Simply add about half a teaspoon of our delicious Reishi Relax powder or one of our single-serve sticks to 6-8 ounces of hot water. Sit back and enjoy the hint of cacao and cinnamon in your reishi tea.
