Fellow psychonauts, Im looking for a way to transport some shroomage on quite a long trip (by car) and I was wondering what the best covert method would be. I considered making gel caps and putting them in a herbal supplement bottle but I think tea might be the answer. I have a couple of specific questions:
1. How long will the tea stay (fully) potent if kept cool/cold?
2. What, if anything, should it not be mixed with? (ie. what could damage its potency?)
3. We would probably drink the tea the same day it was made (when we arrived at our destination) maybe the next day though.

I feel safest with the tea or capsule method, but the problem with the tea is that it didn't keep moisture out very well, so there wasn't much of a self-life. The capsules just keep so much better and are easier to get down.
Otherwise, mushroom powder + chocolates sounds yummy and not too hard to transport.

Iced tea; heat it later, if you want.

Thanks for the advice/suggestions! Now I think about it theres a million things you could put shroom powder in and still remain inconspicuous

Powder is good, or you could just take the active chemicals with you and leave the mushrooms behind (liquid!) You're really suppoused to use teas within 48 hours,though.

@Adagio: Im pretty sure we would be drinking the tea when we arrive or at latest the next day. Is there anything it really shouldn't be mixed with (eg. that would decrease potency)?

Nope. If you are planning on using it when you arrive or the day after tea would be the most covert way to transport it, completely undetectable.

You can mix with any liquid you want, really. There's nothing that comes to mind that would decrease potency.

See:

Dosing on an empty stomach also helps in getting full effects. The best time to dose in my opinion is in the morning when you wake up, as you have technically been fasting for hours. (However long you slept for)

Yeah, go with the tea.
I've transported tea over 5 states before. Bottom of the ice chest. Hint: For the complete covert operation, buy 20 ounce bottles of soda (Coke, rootbeer, dr. pepper, anything dark...) and empty them out, filling them back up with tea. Fill them to the line they would be filled with soda to. Tighten the top really tight. Looks just like store bought. Put these underneath ice and bottles of real soda, also in the same 20 ounce bottles.

Better yet, just make it with soda! It would work just fine, do like above ^^ suggested. Use an unrefrigerated bottle of your favorite soda and dump into a pot, and heat it up. Right when it almost comes to a boil, turn down the heat a bit. Add your mushrooms and let it steep covered for an hour or so. When the hour is up, strain out the mushrooms and put your soda back it its original bottle with a funnel. Place in refrigerator to chill, and take it out when you are ready to take your trip. You could keep it in a cooler for the duration of the trip if you want.

I think I'll make some tea and mix it with some lipton's iced tea and put it back in the bottle, that should be pretty inconspicuous

I don't know if you're going to find many people that have actually boiled coke  I don't see why it wouldn't be okay if you chilled it in the fridge overnight, though.

You wouldn't taste the mushrooms in coke any more than you would in tea.

I can always taste them in tea. It's more of an after taste though. That earthiness.
Yes, a friend of mine followed Tool on a tour once for about 2 weeks and had a gallon he took and it lasted the whole time, tripping every few days for 2 weeks. Pretty cool. Just keep the shit cold/frozen. Mine stayed fully potent for the week and 1/2 we had them in an ice chest in the desert. You'll have no problem whatsoever if you'll be drinking it the same day/day after. Just be careful making it... I've wasted 40+ shrooms on a tea that I kept on the heat for too long. Don't go over 30 mins on low heat no matter what anyone tells you!
