Four SigmaticCalm Mushroom Cacao Mix | Organic Instant Cacao with Organic Reishi Mushroom Powder | Supports Calm & Relaxation | Drink it or Bake with it | Vegan, Gluten-Free, Dairy-Free | 10 CountUSDA Organic

I just love all products from four sigmatic. Specifically the calm and think ones. Flavor is always on point. Tasty flavor I personally prefer to add about 2 tbps of ovaltine or regular hot chocolate to it to make it even more chocolatey and a little bit of heavy whipping cream, and with whipcream ontop. Now I want to go make some after writing this review 😆 it doesn't make me sleepy. I've even had a cup during a work day when I just wanted to calm a bit during stressful times.

I love drinking this at night to help me wind down. It tastes great, I use hot water and add some almond milk and sometimes a splash of creamer to make it sweeter. It doesn't usually mix in 100% and it can get a little chalky towards the end. Otherwise love it!

This product isn't necessarily for sleep. In fact, I use reishi and cacao for making energizing, calming, brain-boosting supplements because they both have those qualities. But they also have relaxing, stress-relieving adaptogenic qualities as well. So I personally don't take this right before bed, but anyone can choose to if they want. The taste is sweet and pleasant because sweeteners are added. The packets are very small, and when I try to fill my large glass mug, it tastes too watery. So in reality, this product is overpriced and I believe the slick packaging cost them more than anything else. However, on Sephora they sell this for several dollars more. I just enjoy the convenience of the sealed packets.The powder mixes easily into hot liquids. You can mix other ingredients like manuka honey in here. Overall I like this product, its natural organic ingredients and the satisfying taste. It's definitely worth trying!

The first thing to keep in mind with these is that it is a small packet designed for a small cup, like an espresso cup, or a Turkish coffee cup. When made it this way it has a rich delicious flavor. I have made it with water and with oat milk, both were very good. I do not detect the mushroom taste at all, which is good and the chocolate is rich and dark so if you like milk chocolate, definitely make it with milk not water. Has a nice warm cinnamon, and something else. Spices added. It is quite delicious. However, if you make it in a regular size mug, it will be severely diluted almost no flavor at all. I did make it for my son in a regular mug using chocolate almond milk and he said it was good that way. I mainly bought them for him because I thought they would help him concentrate in school. I do not actually know if they helped or not but I hope that they did. as for me, I have ADHD, and do not take any medication for it. They did have a bit of a calming effect on me.

Still waiting for calmness. Tastes oh though.

i love this cocoa very tasty, it does have a calming effect at times for me. i use a little creamer and stevia and good to drink. enjoy it every afternoon.

Huge rip off. You’re waaaaay better off just buying organic cacao and reishi and missing your own. You can get 4X the servings for the same price and higher quality. Plus you get to control the sugar content. I was hugely disappointed.

I am a night owl and have always found it difficult to go to bed before 1:00 am. My best friend made me a cup of the Four Sigmatic Mushroom Hot Cacao mix when I was visiting, and I couldn’t BELIEVE how well it worked. I was skeptical when she handed me the mug, but I started yawning about 10 minutes later, and we called it a night. I had the stuff again the next two nights and, for the first time in months, fell asleep before midnight.It has an earthy, slightly bitter flavor, hardly sweet — but it’s not unpleasant at all. I find it pretty comforting. Each packet makes enough for 100 ml/3.5 oz/6.5 Tbsp of water (or your beverage of choice). If you want a full 8 oz mug of the stuff, you’ll need to use two packets. I use one packet for a small cup, and that’s enough to start making my eyes and forehead feel heavy. It is now part of my nightly routine at home. Definitely recommended!Update, July 2018:The price of this item has fluctuated drastically in the past few weeks and has gone much higher than what I feel 10 packets are worth, so I decided this past week to buy reishi powder in bulk and try making my own version of this mix with cocoa powder, cinnamon, and agave nectar. I figured out the proper ratios to mimic this blend, and it works great. To save on money, I'll be sticking with my homemade mix as my nightly drink, but I will keep a few Four Sigmatic packets on hand for when I'm traveling.
