DIRTEA Iced Coffee Recipe: Focus and Energy, Served Cold

A Cooler Take on Mushroom Coffee

When the weather’s warm or your afternoon needs a reset, iced coffee is an easy win. But most iced coffees are heavy on caffeine and light on support. This version does more. It combines the focus-boosting power of Lion’s Mane mushroom, the natural energy lift of Maca, the stress support of Ashwagandha, and the fatigue-fighting help of Vitamin B Complex—all blended with smooth Organic Arabica Coffee.

This iced mushroom coffee is quick to make and easy to adapt. It’s part cold brew, part functional tonic, and fully designed to help you stay calm, clear and energised without overstimulation.

The recipe uses the DIRTEA Mushroom Coffee Super Blend, one of the best low caffeine mushroom coffee options for anyone looking to support focus, mood and sustainable energy throughout the day.
