• 1-2 grams of dried mushrooms, finely ground
• 1 cup of water
• Honey or agave syrup (optional, for sweetness)
• Lemon slice (optional, for flavour enhancement)

• Bring the water to a boil in a small saucepan.
• Once boiling, reduce the heat and add the ground mushrooms. Simmer gently for 10-15 minutes. This process ensures that the active compounds are fully extracted.
• Use a fine mesh strainer to pour the tea into a cup, removing the mushroom grounds.

• Add honey or agave syrup to taste, and a slice of lemon if desired. The lemon not only adds flavour but may also aid in the extraction of active compounds.
• Sip the tea slowly, savouring the unique flavours and awaiting the gentle effects to manifest.

Always ensure that mushrooms have been correctly identified and sourced from reliable suppliers. Incorrect identification can lead to the consumption of potentially harmful species.

Mushrooms intended for consumption must be thoroughly dried before use. The drying process helps to mitigate potential risks associated with raw mushroom consumption, including the presence of harmful bacteria and the reduction of unwanted compounds.

Be acutely aware of the dosage of dried mushrooms used in any recipe. Start with a low dosage, especially if you are unfamiliar with their effects, and never exceed the recommended amount. The potency of mushrooms can vary significantly between species and even between batches.

Ensure that the cultivation, possession, and consumption of mushrooms comply with local laws and regulations. The legal status of certain mushrooms varies by country and region, with some species being classified as controlled substances.

Individuals with a history of mental health issues, pregnant women, and those on medication should avoid consuming psychedelic or medicinal mushrooms due to potential adverse effects or interactions. Consultation with a healthcare professional is recommended before consumption.

Especially for those new to consuming mushrooms with potent effects, it is advised to do so in a safe environment and ideally under the supervision of someone experienced in their use.

Be aware of the potential for allergic reactions. If you or your guests have a history of allergies, especially to fungi, proceed with caution and consider a medical consultation prior to consumption.

Do not drive or operate heavy machinery after consuming mushrooms with psychoactive properties. Their effects can significantly impair your ability to perform tasks requiring concentration and coordination.

Mushrooms with psychoactive properties should be used responsibly and respectfully, recognizing their potential for both beneficial and adverse effects. Misuse can lead to significant health risks and legal consequences.

Store dried mushrooms in a cool, dark place, out of reach of children and pets. Proper storage is essential to maintain their potency and prevent accidental ingestion.
