Why This Mushroom Mocha Works

 

The DIRTEA Mocha is built with ingredients that support how you feel and function—especially during high-focus moments.

Vitamin B ComplexEssential for energy metabolism, concentration, and mood stability. The B vitamins in the DIRTEA blend (B1, B2, B3, B5, B6, B7, B9, and B12) help convert nutrients into fuel while supporting brain health.

This combination makes the mushroom mocha an incredibly smart and rewarding part of a functional routine.

 

 

Tips for Making It Even Better

  • Use a small handheld whisk or electric frother to dissolve the powder fully and improve texture.
  • Oat milk adds a natural creaminess and gentle sweetness.
  • Try a pinch of cinnamon or a few drops of vanilla to round out the flavour.
  • If you prefer iced drinks, make the mocha base in advance, chill it, and serve over ice with cold milk.
  • Avoid boiling water, which can make the flavour overly sharp—stick to just under boiling.
