15 Delicious & Functional Mushroom Coffees, Chocolates, Powders & Tinctures To Try

The bundle of two tins of mushroom mints includes “creativity,” a proprietary blend of organic cordyceps, organic reishi mushrooms, and “flow,” which gets its oomph from organic lion’s mane mushrooms and organic reishi.

Tastes like: Cinna-minty, with an herbal element. An Altoid this is not.

Alice Mushrooms are relatively new on the scene, but they’ve been exploding in popularity. Made only with the “fruiting body” of the mushrooms they use — meaning the part of the fungi that grows above ground — they’re high-quality and delicious functional mushroom product. The “Nightcap” has quickly become part of my evening wind down routine.

Tastes like: A little square of chocolate, but more fudgy than snappy.

“Like a happy tree, this blend of herbs will help you energetically move upward and outward,” says Mount Sunny of this mushroom supplement that’s meant to boost your mood. Made with reishi and lion’s mane, it’s packaged in little capsules that you can swallow with your other vitamins and supplements, so it certainly goes down easy.

Tastes like: Nada. You just swallow these like a vitamin.

Fortified with lion’s mane, cordyceps and reishi, this canned mushroom coffee also contains actual coffee, for the caffeine boost that so many of us rely on to kickstart the day. Creamy and lightly sweet, it quite possibly the most low-effort, ready-to-drink mushroom coffee we’ve come across.

Tastes like: Creamy, slightly sweet — pretty much like an oat milk latte should taste.

On one hand, I’m all the functional beverage marketplace has really gotten out of control. But then, I am also like, OK, sold when I read Kin’s claim that Lightwave is “like naked forest bathing at midnight.” What’s a girl to do but click? Made with lavender, vanilla, passionflower, and smoked sea salt, this (currently sold out) drink is a whole vibe.

Tastes like: A little floral, a little sweet, Kin suggests swapping Lightwave for your nightly glass of red.

This adaptogenic blend of “reishi, cordyceps and raw organic cacao may nourish the immune system, soothe the respiratory system, and enhance well-being,” says Moodbeli. Designed to taste like a creamy cocoa when blended with a milk of your choosing, this one definitely is intended to make you feel good, regardless of functionality.

Tastes like: Cocoa. Moodbeli explicity promises “no mushroom taste” when this powder is combined with a plant milk, like oat or hemp.

Lightly carbonated and beautifully packaged for the sober (and sober-curious) among us, this wind-down alcohol alternative is “made with a dreamy duo of reishi mushroom and passion flower to ease you into the evening.”

Tastes like: A bit bittersweet, fizzy with notes of strawberry and grapefruit. You can use it as a mocktail base if you’d like to mix it with a little fruit juice or sparkling water, or just sip as-is over ice.

This functional mushroom extract is like a one-stop shop for mushrooms that are believed to have health-related superpowers. It includes reishi, chaga, lion’s mane, cordyceps, turkey tail, oyster, mesima, agarikon,shiitake, royal sun, and maitake. According to Rainbo, “mushrooms work in synergy with each other to protect and support the body and mind, supporting your immune system and resilience.”

Tastes like: You probably won’t really taste this one, because you’re meant to mix it into smoothies or other flavorful beverages. If you do take it as-is in a glass of water, it’ll just taste medicinal.

This powdered blend of eight functional mushrooms cuts right to the chase. You can add it to coffee, tea, or just about anything you’d like to give a little boost to.

Tastes like: Another one you aren’t really meant to taste, this mushroom powder will simply blend into whatever you add it to — smoothies or your morning latte.

Anima Mundi’s website does not shy away from making some of the most powerful supplement claims I’ve encountered, all (of course) with the caveat that the FDA does not evaluate the claims. That said, if this “nootropic” lion’s mane powder can actually “protect against stomach ulcers, reduce anxiety and depression, aid cognitive function, and has anti-fatigue and anti-aging properties,” I’m on board for sure.

Tastes like: Medicine. But you’ll mask that by blending it into your morning coffee or smoothie.

You can’t round up adaptogens and functional mushroom powders without talking about Moon Juice, can you? Mushrooms have been used for healing for thousands of years, so Moon Juice is hardly the “OG”, but they were definitely an early adapter of the modern, Western “wellness” movement and their powders and “dusts” have a serious following.

Tastes like: Mushrooms. The only ingredient in this powder is reishi mushrooms, so you’ll really want to blend it into something else.

Renude’s Chagaccino is meant to go into your morning cup of coffee, clearly. “Spiked with an effective dose of the planet’s greatest adaptogens to support immunity, promote anti-aging, boost your energy without the jitters, and protect your chill.” Clinically proven? Perhaps not. But chaga mushrooms have been used in folk medicine for a long time and may have supportive or beneficial qualities.

Tastes like: The Chagaccino is a powder sweetened with monkfruit, and flavored with cacao and cinnamon. You’re meant to combine it with espresso and add it to milk of your choice to sip as a mushroom-empowered morning boost.

Offering “support for those seeking more mindfulness, energy & focus,” this adaptogen-loaded tinture from Cleban & Daughters exists to “invite clarity to a foggy mind & lightness to a weary body,” or so they say. Sounds great to me.

Tastes like: Another one that tastes like medicine, because that’s how you’re meant to ingest it. “Take sublingually or add one full squeeze of the dropper bulb (1 ml) to still or sparkling water,” Cleban & Daughters recommends.

Sun Potion sells a wide range of adaptogenic tinctures and powders, but their cordyceps powder stood out (I blame The Last of Us, obviously). Of the mushroom supplement powder, Sun Potion says: “This Yang tonic may also support increased oxygenation throughout the body, as well as boosting the immune system and improving muscle tone and exercise performance. It’s also believed that cordyceps may have anti-aging properties and may fight inflammation in the body.”

Tastes like: Mushroom powder. But you can make it taste however you want by mixing it into your smoothie or coffee.

I’ve started noticing these little packets of turkey tail mushroom-and-turmeric powder at the grocery store check out, so this one wins points for sheer availability, at least. Just add hot water and stir for a cozy drink that just might offer some health benefits, too.

Tastes like: Creamy — thanks to the addition of powdered coconut milk — with warm spices. It doesn’t taste “mushroom-y” at all.
