Equipment
- 1 Small saucepan
- 1 Whisk
Ingredients
For the Drink
- 1 cup coconut milk or any milk
- 1 tbsp raw cacao powder
- 1/2 tsp lion's mane powder
- 1/2 tsp reishi powder
- 1 tsp maple syrup to taste
- 1/8 tsp cinnamon optional
Instructions
Make the Paste
- In a mug, whisk the lion's mane and reishi powder with a small splash of warm milk to form a smooth paste.
Warm and Combine
- Heat the remaining milk in a small saucepan until steaming, not boiling.
- Whisk in the cacao powder and cinnamon until fully dissolved.
- Pour the warm milk mixture into the mug with the mushroom paste, whisking as you pour.
- Stir in maple syrup to taste.
- Serve immediately while hot.
Notes
Whisk the mushroom powder into a small amount of liquid first to avoid a gritty texture. Fruiting-body extracts taste less bitter than cheaper mycelium-based powders.
