Will this hot chocolate taste like mushrooms?

While the mushroom powders do have a subtle, earthy flavor, it is not like eating a culinary mushroom. The rich cacao, warming spices, and your choice of sweetener do a wonderful job of masking the earthiness, resulting in a complex and delicious chocolatey drink.

Where can I buy mushroom and marshmallow root powders?

These specialty ingredients can be found at most well-stocked health food stores, natural grocers, apothecaries, or from reputable sellers online. Be sure to purchase from brands that provide information about their sourcing and quality testing.

Can I use more than one type of mushroom in my Mushroom Hot Chocolate?

Yes, absolutely! Many people enjoy blending different adaptogenic mushrooms. You could use 1/2 tablespoon of Reishi and 1/2 tablespoon of Chaga, for example. Just keep the total amount of mushroom powder to about 1 tablespoon for the recipe.
