Coffee lovers say they no longer have caffeine-induced ‘jitters or crashes’ after trying a mushroom drink that's legal to buy in the UK.

With thousands of rave reviews, fans say the cult beverage mimics the taste and energy-boosting properties of coffee despite containing 80% less caffeine.

According to the brand behind it, the drink is designed to support mental clarity, nervous system health, and energy metabolism — and the reviews speak for themselves.

“After looking for a coffee alternative as I suffer from anxiety, I found this coffee by chance. I have been drinking it for a week and I have already experienced the benefits,” one customer wrote. “Loads of energy without the constant worrying.”

“From the very first week, I noticed a much better focus and, thankfully, no more jitters or crashes like I experienced before,” another five-star review reads. “It’s been two years now, and I honestly haven’t looked back.”

A third shared: “This has been a godsend for me, I stopped drinking coffee for a while as my nervous system couldn't handle the crash after the high.

"But now, I can go back to getting all of the benefits of the goodness of the antioxidants in coffee mixed with the benefits of lion's mane at the same time.”

So, how does mushroom coffee work?

Traditional coffee may taste good, but everyone knows it can lead to the dreaded 3pm crash. This is because your brain can mistake the caffeine crash for an energy emergency, therefore it releases adrenaline, which is where the jitters come in.

Lion’s mane on the other hand is an adaptogen, which helps to regulate and balance energy levels, to prevent crashing. For some customers, this has helped to reduce the symptoms of anxiety that can be heightened with your usual cup of coffee.

Dr Suzanne Wylie, GP and medical adviser for IQdoctor, told LADbible that while the efficacy of medicinal mushrooms like lion's mane is 'limited', the reduced side effects like jitteriness and crashes is likely down to the lower caffeine content.

What is the mushroom coffee everyone is raving about?

We’re talking about this Mushroom Coffee, of course. Fortified with lion’s mane and vitamin B complex, it’s allegedly designed to ‘boost focus and increase productivity’.

Most importantly, customers say it ‘tastes great’, and is described as having a ‘rich, nutty flavour’ by the brand. To use it, all you need to do is scoop 2.5g worth mushroom coffee into a cup, then add 100ml of hot water. Then, froth 150ml of the milk of your choice, stir, and enjoy.

*Make sure to always consult a healthcare provider before introducing new supplements or functional foods into your routine, especially if you have underlying health conditions or are taking other medications.
