Host Defense MycoBrew Cocoa, Lion's Mane Mushroom Powder, 10 Packets

10 out of 10

this is a really tasty cocoa, in addition to having the benefits of other mushroom coffees/teas. Just on taste and texture alone, I would recommend this.

Okay, 1st time I tried this I loved it! Second time it definitely had overtones of earthy flavor so I figure it all depends on what stage your taste buds are in. It’s not terrible but I would have loved some more chocolate flavor.

I was already getting this product locally, but saw it on Amazon for a few bucks cheaper. I like it, not so much for the initial taste, but because you can easily add to it to create the taste you like. For example, I don't like the taste with just hot water, with or without sweetner. I use a Coconut milk that has few ingrediants, no seed oils, and unsweetened. The milk gives texture and I use sugar or Monkfruit with allulouse to sweeten to taste. Sometimes I use Lactaid milk (I can't do regular milk) and that gives it a bit better texture than the coconut milk. I use a mug that's about 1 /34 cups, so I find that I need two tablespoons of powder to hit that sweet spot of chocolate taste for me. I can do 1 table spoon with just one cup. I also find that it's really good hot or cold. For cold, Ii just stick the prepared product in the frig. So basically, in my opinion, this is one of those products that you can easily alter to your liking without having to add a bunch of crap that nullifies the health benefits.

I really do experience a mental and mood boost from this product. I love the flavor too. I keep re-ordering it!

Everyone knows if you are adding cocoa powder to a drink you add a "little" of boiling hot water in the bottom with the powder. Stir till fully mixed with no clumps and then you add your coffee, or milk, or what ever. If you don't do this you're gonna have clumps. Once I did this the texture was great, flavor was great. Just too expensive for the amount that you get. I probably bought a total of 4 of these before I gave up on it. I'll probably buy again eventually when I am in the mood. However I found this delicious, just not sustainable for long term, I need my money to go other places.

Love this mycococcoa in place of coffee, great flavor and getting nutrients as well.
