Lion’s Mane Tea

This simple Lion’s Mane tea highlights the mushroom’s natural earthiness while delivering a calming, functional brew. Dried Lion’s Mane is gently simmered to extract its flavor, beneficial compounds, and cognitive-supporting properties, optionally paired with ginger or cinnamon for added warmth. After a short infusion, the tea is strained and lightly sweetened to taste. It’s an easy, approachable way to enjoy Lion’s Mane as a daily ritual or soothing afternoon drink.
