Reishi’s taste often needs some time to get used to. It is generally quite bitter and is therefore best to mix with a few sweet ingredients. The following recipe is great when you need something to calm you and regain your inner balance.
Ingredients:
(adjust depending on your bitter-threshold)
1 glass plant milk (we used hazelnut milk)
1/2 teaspoon Reishi powder
1 teaspoon raw cacao powder
2 dates (add more if you still need to cover Reishi’s taste)
1-2 teaspoon Coconut sugar, raw honey or agave syrup.
Optional: sprinkle of cinnamon
Blend the milk and dates. Add Reishi and cacao powder.
Keep blending and add sweetener.
Pour liquid through a strainer if you don’t like small date pieces in your tonic. Add a dash of cinnamon on top.
