How to Make Shroom Tea

How to Make Shroom Tea

Are you looking for a new way to enjoy shrooms — or maybe for a tea-drinking experience that’s completely out of the ordinary? We’ve got you covered! From important things to remember to ingredients and how to prepare your shrooms, we’re here to help you brew the perfect cup of shroom tea. 

What is Shroom Tea?

Shroom tea is exactly what it sounds like: an infusion of magic mushrooms brewed in water. Magic mushrooms are fungi that can produce hallucinogenic effects through the psychedelic compounds that they contain, namely psilocybin and psilocin. 

There are hundreds of species of magic mushrooms that have been in use for thousands of years, so the substance has a long and complex history.

In shroom tea, the mushrooms are dried and ground into a fine powder. The color and taste of the tea will vary based on what you add or don’t add to the mixture, but you can expect an earthy flavor. 

Prepping Your Shroom Tea

Before you start making your tea, there are a few things to keep in mind to make sure that you are preparing correctly:

Location (Set and Setting) 

Even if you’ve taken shrooms or other hallucinogenic drugs before and feel confident, it’s always important to make sure that you’re in a safe space. This means that you should be in a secure location, and if someone else is going to be with you (whether they’re also partaking or not), they should be someone you trust. 

Why You Should Get Your Medical Marijuana Card

Veriheal has satisfied millions of patients nationwide by giving them access to these benefits

  • Larger purchase limits
  • Peace of mind
  • Enhanced legal protection
  • Access to higher potency strains
  • Save up to 25% on cannabis purchases
  • Skip the line at the dispensary

This will help you be more relaxed and put you in the headspace for a good experience! 

Know Yourself (And Start Small)

When making your tea, start with a dose that you feel comfortable with. If you’re not sure, try it with a smaller amount first. The amount you choose will also likely depend on the type of shrooms you’re using, as different strains can have different potencies or strengths. You can always experiment and work your way up in the future. 

Ingredients and Tools

Ready to start making your tea? Get all of your ingredients and tools together first! Fortunately, it’s a pretty short list.

Ingredients

  • Mushrooms of your choice
  • Water
  • Your favorite decaffeinated tea (optional)
  • Sweetener, ginger, or lemon (optional)

Tools

  • Teapot, kettle, or pot for boiling water
  • Knife and/or grinder 
  • Coffee strainer or filter
  • Bowl (optional)

Instructions

Once you’re in the right place and you’ve gathered everything that you need, it’s time to start making your tea! 

  1. Measure your shrooms. Again, make sure that you go for an amount that you know you can comfortably handle, or start small. 
  2. Ensure that you completely dry your shrooms if they are not dry already. 
  3. If your shrooms are in large pieces, cut them up, or more ideally, grind them with a coffee grinder. Grinding your shrooms helps to ensure a smoother, more potent infusion. 
  4. Boil water. You can do this with a teapot or tea kettle if you have one, or you can just boil it in a small pot or saucepan. 
  5. If you boil your water with a teapot or tea kettle, you can now pour it into a bowl. If you use a small pot or saucepan, you can remove it from the heat and make the tea in it, or pour it into a bowl. 
  6. Add your shrooms and optional tea to the water. Steep for approximately 10-15 minutes. If you want to use ginger slices, you can add them now
  7. Strain the shrooms and tea out using a strainer or coffee filter. 
  8. Add any other ingredients you like, such as sweetener or lemon. 
  9. Enjoy!

Key Takeaways

Shroom tea can be a super fun way to savor and enjoy shrooms, and with only a couple of ingredients and tools, the prep is easy and quick. Plus, by trying out different types and amounts of mushrooms, as well as combining your shrooms with different teas, you can experiment with flavor and potency. 

Taking shrooms is a rich and unique journey for each person who tries them, and taking them in the form of tea can enhance the experience. If you don’t love it or get it perfect the first time, you can always practice and adjust your recipe and technique over time. Have fun!
