Best of both worlds if you add juice of 1/4 lemon to your tea and let it set for about 15 minutes.

I've never tried either; I've always mixed the powder with OJ. However, wouldn't the heat from making a tea weaken the potency?

Psilocybin is stable beyond the boiling point of water.
Simmer the shrooms for 40 minutes. Chill it, add the lemon juice, kaboom.

I haven't noticed much of a difference between tea and the lemon tek, seems like whenever I powder my mushrooms before ingestion they hit harder, covering more surface area in your stomach or something maybe, I don't particularly know.
Although I tend to shun the lemon tek because it gives me major acid indigestion, I would much rather sip on some nice tea. Although I would prefer just eating them in a brownie or something lemon tek and teas just feel so rushed to me, I get a super intense come up but the trip lasts half as long.

Powdering shrooms is the best, digests very easy, mind blowing trip.

LT is way better IMO. I guess maybe I haven't made tea the right way, but every time I have tried making it, I have been disappointed.

Honestly I tried the lemon tek twice and it was not any more powerful/faster than just eating powdered shrooms. I think part of this "huge difference" people notice from the lemon tek is that their mushrooms are largely pulverized before ingestion. As opposed to eating normally where there are large chunks which need to be broken down. Just my two cents but I wouldn't bother with the lemon tek again. It also upset my stomach.
For me personally, tea (filtered) is the ideal method of consumption. And this is mainly due to eliminating most of the mushroom taste and most of the nausea.
I'd say both are pretty much equally potent in my experience.

I usually grind my mushrooms to a powder and then swallow the powder with water or whatever beverage is available. They always take effect very fast. I don't have any lemon tek experience to compare. But I'd say that you might be onto something. Because powdered mushrooms do hit a lot faster and harder than big pieces.

/\ I didn't know Canada Dry had real ginger, I figured most of the mainstream brands didn't. Thanks for the tip

Yeah I haven't really been using them much for the past couple years but when I did I always made them into a pretty fine powder and washed it down. First alert of something usually within 20-30 minutes on an empty stomach, not much different than tea. I think a large degree of the perceived difference of potency with the lemon tek can be attributed to that.
Still I'm not totally sure the idea behind the lemon tek doesn't work to some degree, but it's just not for me. I can't say all the people who had better effects with it are wrong since there are more than a few people who had positive experiences with it.
