Tea

Soothing mushroom tea for a gentle, fast-acting experience

Mushroom tea is made by steeping dried mushrooms in hot water, then straining and drinking the liquid. This method is prized for its faster onset, reduced nausea, and the ability to customize flavor with added herbs or honey.

Onset: 15-30 min
Duration: 3-5 hours

How It Works

Hot water extracts psilocybin from the mushroom material. Since the psilocybin is already dissolved in water, your body can absorb it more quickly than digesting whole mushrooms. Straining out the mushroom material reduces chitin intake, which often causes nausea.

Pros & Cons

Pros

  • Fastest onset of any oral method
  • Significantly reduced nausea
  • Shorter overall duration (good for time constraints)
  • Can add honey, ginger, or other flavors
  • Gentler come-up and come-down

Cons

  • Requires preparation time and equipment
  • Slightly shorter duration than other methods
  • Some potency may be lost if water is too hot
  • Not discreet to prepare or consume
  • Harder to dose precisely

Tea Dosage Guide

Recommended dosing for tea consumption.

Microdose

0.1g - 0.3g dried mushrooms

Low Dose

0.5g - 1g dried mushrooms

Standard

1.5g - 2.5g dried mushrooms

High Dose

3g - 5g dried mushrooms

Note: Steep time affects potency. Longer steep = stronger tea. Some potency remains in strained material.

Tips for Tea

  • Use water around 160-180°F — boiling can degrade psilocybin
  • Steep for 15-20 minutes for full extraction
  • Add ginger during steeping to further reduce nausea
  • Chop or grind mushrooms finely for better extraction
  • You can eat the strained mushrooms for extended effects
