Nice, this is super close to how i do it too. I powder the dried mushrooms in a coffee grinder, pour em in a coffee filter or two that i tie closed like a giant teabag(s), and simmer them in the water on low for about fifteen minutes, squeeze out the shroombags into the pot, then pour that into cups with black tea teabags and honey. I find black tea and honey masks any weird dried mushroom flavor like 90% if not more.

I've tried adding lemon juice but i can't say I've noticed a difference in come up/duration beyond the effect that making tea has in general, although it does make the tea (at least black tea) a little more unpleasant to drink imo. I was probably using more like half of a large lemon between two cups of tea though.

The lemon has always had a huge effect for me, I will start feeling the come up within 10-15 minutes and after an hour I'm tripping pretty good. Without lemon it's usually 45-60 minutes before I start feeling it.

Definitely makes it more of an "acquired taste" though.

Interesting! Maybe I gave up on it prematurely and then became set in my ways, it's been years since I've tried it with lemon. One of the things I like about mushrooms (in general, especially with the tea method) is that it isn't as crazy long a time commitment as lsd, so I'll definitely give it another shot next time ๐Ÿ‹
