My 7-Day RYZE Mushroom Coffee Experience

Let’s be clear: I love coffee. I also happen to love mushrooms, in my food, and now… apparently, in my cup?!

When I heard about mushroom coffee and all the wellness benefits packed into it (gut health, focus, calm energy, immune support… yes please), I knew I had to give it a shot. I’m not completely giving up coffee (let’s not be dramatic), but for now, I’m swapping my daily brew for a little functional fungi goodness instead.

My RYZE Mushroom Coffee Experience

Here’s how my first 7 days with RYZE Mushroom Coffee went:

Day 1 – Black & Bare

I followed the directions and used one scoop in 8 oz of hot water, no sweetener, no milk. I wanted to taste it in its purest form.

My honest take? It was… barely bearable. I could pick up hints of coffee, but the earthy mushroom flavor was definitely front and center. Not awful, but not my fave either.

I reminded myself that just a few months ago, I trained my taste buds to enjoy black coffee. It only took a few days to get used to the bold, unsweetened flavor, and now I actually enjoy it. So, I decided to give this the same grace.

Day 2 – The Glow Up

Today, I treated myself and added a spoonful of toasted coconut + almond milk blend and a drizzle of honey. Game changer!

The flavor was way smoother, and it reminded me of a light, creamy latte, without the heaviness or crash.

Day 3 – Chillin’ With Ice

Y’all know iced coffee is my jam. So I went full café mode today:

• 2 scoops of mushroom coffee

• 4 oz of hot water to dissolve it

• 4 oz of toasted coconut + almond milk blend

• Raw honey

• Poured over ice

This combo? ✨Chef’s kiss✨. The taste was rich, smooth, and totally satisfying. Definitely adding this to my rotation.

Day 4 – Iced Latte Vibes

No changes today! Just stuck with my iced latte flow. Cool, creamy, and refreshing. Perfect for a summer morning.

Day 5 – Hot Latte for the Win

It was a slower morning, so I went back to a warm mug. I used one scoop this time with steamed milk and honey. The warmth, the comfort; it gave coffee shop energy without the caffeine crash.

Day 6 – Back on Ice

Same as Day 4. Still loving the iced version the most, especially when I double the scoop. It just hits different!

Day 7 – Straight to the Point

I ended the week strong with two scoops in 8 oz hot water — no milk, no sweetener. Just me, the mug, and the mushrooms.

And honestly? I didn’t hate it. My taste buds have definitely adjusted. What felt earthy and weird on Day 1 now feels… grounding. Like my body recognizes it’s getting something good.

Final Thoughts

This isn’t your typical coffee, and that’s the point. I’m not ditching regular coffee forever, but swapping it out with RYZE mushroom coffee has already shown me a few benefits I didn’t expect:

• Improved digestion

• More balanced energy

• No caffeine jitters

• A calm focus that actually lasts

I’ll definitely be keeping this in the mix. If you’re curious to see how it fits into your routine, check out RYZE Superfoods today and get 15% off of your order using code: VICTORIANSLIVINGVICTORIOUSLY15.
