Shoppers are ditching their usual caffeine fixes in favour of MOGU's organic mushroom coffee alternative, lauding its natural composition and sustained energy release without the dreaded afternoon slump. As many prepare for a well-earned summer break, reliance on caffeine-heavy beverages remains high for those needing a morning boost. However, alternatives to regular coffee often come laden with fillers and marketing hype, making it tricky to find the ideal energy kick.
MOGU: A Self-Care Brand with Organic Blends
MOGU, a self-care brand, offers organic drink blends and capsules designed for those seeking to move away from traditional coffee. The brand claims to use the highest quality organic superfoods, including Matcha, cacao, and functional mushrooms, to enhance focus, deliver steady energy, and support those with hectic lifestyles. With a stripped-back ingredients list, MOGU aims to help time-pressed individuals 'reclaim their rhythm' throughout the day, whether for morning concentration or evening unwinding. Customers can enjoy 10% off selected products using the code REACH10, including bestselling drinks.
Customer Favourites and Rave Reviews
MOGU's beverages have garnered glowing online reviews, with the Mushroom Matcha (£50, now £45 with code) holding a flawless five-star rating. This product is formulated to provide sustained energy, metabolic support, and antioxidant defence without the subsequent crash. The brand claims its Matcha drink may aid gut-brain support and enhanced concentration. For those less keen on Matcha, the Mushroom Coffee (£45, currently £40.50) offers 30 servings, working out at around £1.35 per drink (excluding additions like water or plant-based milk), making it significantly cheaper than a takeaway coffee.
The Mushroom Coffee features a low-acid coffee and functional mushroom formula using ingredients traditionally associated with sustained focus. Packed with antioxidants, it appeals to those unwilling to abandon their morning coffee entirely. Alternatively, DIRTEA's Mushroom Coffee (£38) includes Lion's Mane for enhanced focus and energy, while Unfabled Mushroom Superblend Capsules (£24.99 at Boots) offer a capsule option.
Testimonials from Satisfied Customers
One Mushroom Matcha devotee said: 'I'm in my 50s and love the natural energy and skin boost this gives me. I pair it with collagen and coconut milk. Delicious and full of benefits.' Another customer, Rio, praised the Mushroom Coffee: 'I drank less coffee and saved. Cheaper than fancy latte with steady benefits that last longer. Game-changer.' Liz commented: 'Works well. Tastes really good! I start the day with tea/shakes and then have a cup of this mid-morning. I've been drinking less coffee and saving a lot of money by not buying coffee out. Win win.' Marco added: 'More energy, less coffee. Long hours drain me but MOGU kept me going strong and I stopped taking too much coffee and rubbish energy drinks.'
One delighted buyer of the Mushroom Cacao (£40.50, reduced from £45) said: 'Wow wow wow...this is my second order. Placed my first one last week, loved it so much and had to get another one before the holidays. Beautiful ingredients, packaging and really premium. I haven't come across a cacao like this. Felt instantly relaxed after drinking it. I've also been sleeping so well on the nights I have it in the evening.'
Other Notable Products
Other standout options include Lion's Mane Capsules (£36, was £40), which eliminate drink preparation hassle, and the Collagen Creamer (£27, was £30), designed to nourish skin and described as 'perfection' by one customer. While not every drink suits every palate, MOGU offers an extensive selection for those keen to swap regular instant coffee.
