Morning Magic Mushroom Coffee (180g) | Decaf Arabica with Lions Mane, Cordyceps, Ashwagandha & Maca Root | 15:1 Extract Blend, 30% Beta Glucans | 100% Natural Coffee Alternative

I’ve been on the hunt for a good caffeine-free coffee alternative, and I finally decided to give Ancient Extracts Decaf Mushroom Coffee Alternative a try. I’ll be honest—I was skeptical at first. Could a blend of mushrooms and root extracts really satisfy my coffee cravings? Here’s what I found out after drinking it for a while. Taste & First Impressions The first sip took me by surprise. It has an earthy, slightly bitter taste—not quite coffee, but also not unpleasant. The Lion’s Mane, Chaga, and Cordyceps give it a deep, roasted flavor, while the Maca Root and Ashwagandha add a slightly nutty and malty undertone. I found that adding a splash of coconut milk and a drizzle of honey makes a huge difference. It balances out the earthiness and makes the drink feel a little more indulgent. Energy & Focus Without the Jitters One of the biggest reasons I wanted to try this was to cut down on caffeine without losing the energy boost I get from coffee. After drinking this for a few days, I noticed I felt more focused and alert without the usual caffeine crash or jittery feeling. Lion’s Mane is known for supporting brain function, and I can honestly say I felt mentally clearer after drinking this. Calming but Still Energizing? This is where the Ashwagandha kicks in. It’s an adaptogen that helps with stress, and I did feel a sense of calm alertness instead of the anxious buzz that regular coffee sometimes gives me. It’s hard to describe, but it’s like feeling naturally awake rather than artificially stimulated. Would Love a Chai Latte Version! The earthy and slightly spicy notes of this drink made me think—this would be amazing as a chai latte version! If Ancient Extracts ever came out with a blend that includes cinnamon, ginger, cardamom, and cloves, I’d be first in line to buy it. Until then, I’ll be experimenting by adding my own spices to give it that cozy chai feel. When I Need a Caffeine Boost... I love that this is caffeine-free, but some days I still want a little extra kick. When I need that boost, I’ll add a small scoop of instant coffee to this mix. It actually blends really well and gives me the best of both worlds—the focus and clarity from the mushrooms, plus a bit of caffeine to power through the day. Value for Money This 240g bag provides around 30 servings and costs £31.99, which works out to about £1.07 per cup. Compared to a daily takeaway coffee, it’s definitely a cost-effective option, especially considering the high-quality ingredients and health benefits. While it’s not the cheapest coffee alternative out there, I think the benefits make it worth the price—especially for those who want to invest in their well-being. Convenience & Ease of Use Since this is an instant powder, it’s super easy to prepare—just mix it with hot water, stir, and you’re good to go. No brewing, no mess. Perfect for busy mornings or when I just want a warm drink without the hassle. Final Thoughts – Will I Keep Drinking It? Yes, but with some tweaks. I love the health benefits and the steady energy it gives me, but I do still miss the strong, bold taste of regular coffee. That said, I’ll definitely keep it in my rotation, especially in the afternoons when I don’t want caffeine interfering with my sleep. ⭐ My Rating: 4.5/5 Great for mental clarity and stress reduction, but if you’re expecting it to taste exactly like coffee, you might need to adjust your expectations. If you’re looking for a caffeine-free boost without sacrificing energy and focus, this is definitely worth trying! Highly recommend using coconut milk and honey for the best taste. And if you need a little caffeine, adding some coffee works really well too!

I love the taste and the benefits of this coffee alternative. I’ve cut out caffine and this tastes quite like coffee and gives me that morning caffine buzz from the medicinal mushrooms and other herbal ingredients. I’ve tried some other brands but they were not as nice to taste, didn’t dissolve well and they didn’t give me the same feeling as this one. I’ll be sticking to this from now. I whisk mine with hot coconut milk or oat milk and it’s like a latte or cappuccino 😃

Tastes really good. More like coffee than any other alternatives I've tried as it's not sweet. I do feel it gives me a bit of a buzz, but maybe it's in my head! I've marked it down as the packet arrived so strongly sealed I had to cut it open so can't reseal it, but otherwise happy with the purchase and it seems to be lasting a long time.

I was recommended to try the morning magic from these guys as a natural replacement for coffee. And in all honesty, I wont be going back to coffee! After a sample from a friend, I ordered my own (which recieved my package within 24 hours)!! Top class service and would highly recommend everyone to these guys. Thanks guys and I look forward to trying your other products such as shilajit.

After trying so many coffee alternatives like dirtea and spacegoods this is the best. The taste is amazing so much nicer than coffee and all organic ingredients. I’ve noticed an increase in energy, productivity and focus and the best thing is there's no caffeine crash! I’m already on my second lot. By far the best product on the market.

I don't normally write reviews and am generally sceptic about products claims, but I found this really good. I feel more alert without that dreaded brain fog you can often get on heavy days and it's a great alternative to that morning coffee with the added benefits of the sharpness. Would recommend to anyone who needs that morning boost, and help with focus during the day.

Didn’t like it, very expensive for what it is. If you’re looking for a coffee alternative which I was, this isn’t it. Tastes nothing like coffee and doesn’t fulfill the need either! Can’t even say what it tastes like to be honest, very strange and unpleasant taste. Each to their own though 🤷🏼‍♂️

Product does have coffee in it,it's decaf but it is coffee. So if you are allergic to coffee or caffeine this is not the product for you.
