Pro Tips

  • Dissolve powder in hot water first—cold water won't fully mix it
  • Use large ice cubes (they melt slower and won't water down your coffee)
  • Make double batch of concentrate and store in fridge for quick iced coffee anytime
  • Add a pinch of salt to enhance the coffee flavor and reduce bitterness

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes! Make a concentrated batch (4-5 scoops with 8-10 oz hot water), let it cool, and store in the fridge for up to 3 days. When ready, pour 2 oz concentrate over ice with cold water or milk.

Mushroom coffee powder dissolves much better in hot water. If you mix directly with cold, you'll get clumps and gritty texture. The hot water method ensures smooth, consistent flavor.

Absolutely! The functional mushroom benefits (focus, energy, immunity) are the same whether hot or cold. Temperature doesn't affect the active compounds in Lion's Mane, Chaga, or Cordyceps.

Oat milk is fantastic—naturally sweet and creamy. Almond milk is lighter and lower calorie. Regular dairy milk works great too. Avoid watery plant milks that dilute the flavor.
