Description
This Adaptogenic 5-Minute Vegan Mushroom Latte is a cozy, immune-supporting drink made with functional mushroom powder, espresso, plant-based milk, and natural sweetener. It’s creamy, earthy, and comforting—perfect for any time of day.
Ingredients
1–2 servings espresso or strong coffee
1 cup plant-based milk (e.g., coconut-almond blend)
1 teaspoon mushroom powder
1–2 teaspoons maple syrup (or sweetener of choice)
¼ teaspoon vanilla extract
Optional: cinnamon for sprinkling
Instructions
- Heat the plant-based milk in a small saucepan over medium heat until steaming but not boiling. Remove from heat.
- Add the espresso (or coffee), mushroom powder, maple syrup, and vanilla extract to the milk. Whisk until well combined.
- Froth the mixture using a whisk or electric frother until foamy.
- Pour into a mug and top with a pinch of cinnamon if desired.
Notes
- Use any functional mushroom powder blend (e.g., reishi, lion’s mane, chaga).
- For a caffeine-free version, replace espresso with decaf or herbal coffee alternatives.
- Add nut butter or MCT oil for a richer latte experience.
- Make it iced by pouring over ice and using cold milk instead of heating.
- Try different plant-based milks to match your desired flavor and creaminess.
