I created Mini Brew with kids in mind.
As a mum, gran and baby yoga teacher I’ve a lot of experience with the weaning journey and challenges that feeding your kids good food.
With just 3 simple, organic ingredients Mini Brew is an easy, and inexpensive way of adding in great nutrients that taste good too.
Perfect to add to most breakfasts, porridge, fruit and yogurt, pancakes, bliss balls, smoothies, ice pops, even sprinkled on buttered toast.
My grandson loves a cup of Mini Mushroom Brew like a hot chocolate.

I decided just to use one source for sharing the benefits of the ingredients I use in the Mushroom Brews to make it easier for you to find the relevant research.
Info on foods can often be unregulated and many claims can be made so I wanted to avoid any doubt about the amazing properties you’ll be having in your Brew.
www.medicalnewstoday.com will show all the research that backs up the benefits that I’ve written here.
All the ingredients have been used in traditional cultures for 100’s of years because of their health benefits and its important we value their knowledge too. Often times the Western approach or ’scientific research can be very reductionist and misleading.
Whenever possible I always buy organic ingredients which is at least 90% from a company that support and develop ethical trade and community based projects with the benefits of harvesting non-timber forest products going to the local producer.
Cacao
Used and cherished for up to 5,000 years the Cacao bean is seen as sacred in many South American cultures.
Treasured for its heart warming qualities there’s also plenty of research to show that it also boosts your brain and heart health, improves your gut, skin, reduces inflammation and enhances your mood.
It’s high in anti oxidants and minerals such as magnesium.

The website I used for the other ingredients did not have enough evidence about Reishi Mushroom so instead try,

Goji Berries
I choose Goji berries because they’re a fantastic superfood!
Goji’s are richly nutritious and particularly high in antioxidants and which gives them a huge array of benefits including protecting the eyes and skin, reducing inflammation, boosting the immune system, stabilising blood sugar and even helping with sleep.
