At YDL HQ we've gone a bit gaga for Four Sigmatic and their mushroom coffees and elixirs, so we've been busy testing out them out.

CEO Jamie's fave is Cacao with Reishi.
'I mix it with warm coconut milk and add a bit of coconut oil for an extra kick of creaminess and flavor.
It’s the perfect way to relax, unwind, and signal to my brain that it’s time for rest.'

Social Media guru, Emma's, fave is a blend of Lion’s Mane and Chaga to really kick start her day.
'I make my favorite coffee, blend in the elixirs, and add a dash of oat milk.
It really turns my brain on and it’s what I look forward to each morning!'

We're so in love with this brand and the power of mushrooms that we partnered up with Four Sigmatic to help spread the word.
