Spiced Reishi Cacao Mylk Recipe

Reishi Mushroom is highly regarded as the most important mushroom in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). At the end of Reishi mushrooms growth cycle, it produces spores which are tiny seeds that serve as the reproduction of the fungi. Reishi spores are prized for their medicinal benefits, and work really well anything chocolatey, which is why we’ve added them to this spiced Reishi cacao mylk.

Reishi spores contain 300% more triterpenes than the fruiting body as well as being rich in polysaccharides. Triterpenes support organ health and have strong anti-histamine and anti-inflammatory properties. Reishi spores are a great choice for allergy and hayfever sufferers at this time of year due to their combination of high immune-modulatory and anti-histamine activity.

We have opened the capsules of our Reishi spores product to add to this recipe- all our mushroom powders in capsule form can be opened and used as a powder if you prefer, they are great stirred into coffee, hot chocolate or during the summer months chilled drinks like this Reishi cacao elixir…
