I have done it that way, and added the broth to gatoraide. No awful taste.

I've also done it that way, in addition to boiling mushrooms in a pot with a few tea bags before adding sugar. I like the latter better.

I made tea that way as well. Low heat with the addition of lemon juice and a dash of honey. EVERY time I have prepped it in that way, It hit hard and fast....usually before the glass is empty effects become apparent. Lemon juice has been linked to increased speed of intoxication.

I find that tea makes for a very unpleasant comeup but overall a great ride anyways. I always prepare it by pouring boiling water over shrooms in a French press and stirring them up. Occasionally pump the press to move the shrooms around a bit and after 20 minutes, lower the press and pour your tea. I like to add some lemon juice and ginger. I go a little overboard with the lemon so my girlfriend hates it, but my cousin and I kinda like it. It sure as hell gets the job done, but like I said the comeup can be a bit unpleasant.

I cant say much for getting rid of taste, i never thoufht tea tasted that horrid, it doesnt gag u. Just kinda has a mushroomy taste. But preparation is simple enough. Chop up or grind down ur mushrooms, boil in water, strain, repeat 2 or 3x with same mushroom material & new water. Usually i do 15minute simmers.
If your worried about heat degrading the psilocybin/psilocin, what i do is take a candy thermometer & monitor temps so they stay about 10° below what ever temp breaks down the actives (i forget what the temp is but its not hard to find).

yeah, that tea. WOW!
i ended up throwing a handful in a pot with about 2 cups water. boiled/ simmered for 15 minutes. strained into a cup and added a powdered lemon tea mix lol. It was actually really good.
as far as the trip. my god.. kicked in within 10 minutes, had my spine tingling within 5. Wasnt the longest trip, but man was it strong! The come up was rough lol, had me feeling kind of nauseous which isnt normal for me with mushies. But after that passed, it was one of the smoothest visual trips ive had in quite a while. BEAUTIFUL visuals. hell, my vision is STILL vibrant!
first experience with the Z+ strain was most definitely a good one.

That's exactly my experience with tea. A nauseous come up with a smooth peak and very quick come down.

You guys using the same dose you would eat to make the tea with?
I've tried making tea before but I never felt anything at all  I ground the mushrooms using coffee grinder and filtered out with a coffee filter. Tea tasted awful, but I only used a green tea bag to go with it. I'll have to try again with honey and lemon, I'm usually making the mushrooms into pills with a little 20$ pill press and it's pretty easy to get 14 grams into your body in a few seconds that way.

Glad it blew your mind! After having done many trips by just eating it plain, I finally decided to try it in tea... boy it did not disapoint!
After only 10 minutes it's like you've been hit in the head, and 3 hours later you're reborn, regaining consciousness.

I won't make tea with less than 10g, and I shoot for 4 tea glasses...which are IIRC are about 8oz. And yes, I use frilly Chinese tea cups with a saucer. Its amazing to see the designs dancing as you start your second cup. I am no one to tell anyone how to dose. Don't do what I do please without proper training.

The tea tastes like any other tea to me.
From what I've read boiling water should pretty much extract all the psilocybin without any loss. As for the psilocin it's hard to say, there's only a handfull of studies out there.

I love how this is in mushroom cultivation. Some people might get angry, but frankly I love to talk about my tea recipe good mushroom tea is not to be underestimated. I've had 5 grams worth of tea destroy reality in the most terrifying way for 6 hours.

iv always found tee to be a much cleaner feeling high with much less gut rot. iv usually just throw a handful of mush into boiling water over a camp fire and drink the liquid without adding anything. I once added hot chocolate. don't do this it tastes so so so so bad.

The nausea is the same for me whether I eat them of make tea. Although I've only eaten shrooms once and that's the only time I puked, but it was barely anything and I always dry heave with tea anyway. Either way I consume them, the nausea is over within 20 minutes and I feel fine for the rest of the trip.

idk, ive never gotten nauseous when eating the mushies straight, but the tea literally had me cringing lol. i was really surprised with how smooth the trip was after that though. i couldnt have imagined a mushroom trip to feel so natural. I usually feel somewhat like ive poisoned myself lol.
And ive had a lot of real visual trips, but this one was different in some ways. Because of how smooth it felt, the visuals went along with that, and man was it beautiful.
I think ive found my new favorite way to prepare mushies. If i could learn how to cut out that 30 minute nausea itd be absolutely perfect. I think maybe if i had some nug to smoke id have been fine :p

I always carry "Crystallized Ginger" on trips for everyone else. I think I have an Iron gut. I can't remember the last time I felt nausea from anything.

hm thats something to look into. ive never heard of crystalized ginger. Do u just mix it with the tea? Or do you prepare it some other way?
i assume if they use it for chemotherapy nausea, its gotta be good.

where do you get Crystallized Ginger? I'm a recovering alcoholic so my guts are fucked up from years of abuse. Any thing that would help with that would be sweet.
