#1 COFFEE ALTERNATIVE
We weren’t mad at coffee, just disappointed.
So we made something better. It's organic with zero sugar or sneaky sweeteners added. Each cup of MUD\WTR has just a fraction of the caffeine found in coffee, leaving you focused and alert during the day, while allowing you to access deep sleep at night.

Lion's mane
Our original blend wouldn’t be what it is today without lion's mane. While it's gaining popularity as a nootropic in Western societies, lion's mane has been integral to Chinese and Japanese medicinal practices for centuries. Our aim is to craft a drinkable routine that nurtures the mind, body, and spirit—and lion's mane is our nod to mental well-being.
Chaga
Chaga is a mushroom that grows on birch trees. Eastern cultures have been drinking chaga for centuries for its overall benefits and soothing properties. We added it to our OG blend because it's chocked full of antioxidants and supports a healthy immune system.
Reishi
Reishi was added to support a healthy immune system and to promote relaxation. This mushroom has been used in Chinese medicine for over 2,000 years and is commonly called the “king of mushrooms” for its adaptogenic qualities. It's rich in fungal polysaccharides, including beta-glucans—perfect for our OG blend.
Cordyceps
Cordyceps was chosen for its physical performance benefits. Originally used by high altitude Tibetan herdsman, Cordyceps is now used by many to support natural energy.. When dreaming up our perfect morning ritual we wanted sustainable energy that would last all day and cordyceps is perfect for that.
Cacao
Cacao is MUD\WTR's most abundant ingredient both for its flavor and effect. Cacao was worshiped by the Mayans, fueled the daily diet of the Aztecs, and has been labeled the "food of the gods" by many subsequent cultures. It makes sense, because it tastes as good as it makes you feel.
Masala chai
Our founder lived in India for some time and fell in love with the tradition and benefits of masala chai. Chai is a blend of ingredients like naturally brewed and flash-dried black tea powder and 100% certified Organic powdered spices: ginger, cardamom, nutmeg, black pepper, cinnamon and cloves. With just enough caffeine to induce alertness, numerous benefits, and a complex flavor profile that rivals coffee—chai is what gives MUD\WTR its soul.
Turmeric
Turmeric is one of the most lauded compounds on the planet. Used in foods and drinks across the globe throughout history for its color, flavor, and benefits on the body and mind, it was an obvious addition to MUD\WTR. Curcumin is an antioxidant flavonoid in turmeric that supports a healthy immune system. Yep, we’ll take it.
Cinnamon
Cinnamon is a spice that has been used medicinally for thousands of years—something you’ll hear often around here. Primarily cinnamon was added for taste, but nothing in MUD\WTR is added for taste alone. Cinnamon is laden with antioxidants, like flavonoids and other phenolic compounds, placing it amongst the world's most advantageous spices. MUD\WTR doesn’t have any sweeteners and cinnamon helps you fight off sugar cravings to help you make better food choices throughout the day.
Himalayan salt
WTF? Salt? Yeah, salt. One of the most important things we can do when we wake up is rehydrate. Salt supports hydration, contains minerals that the body needs, and plays a supporting role in making MUD\WTR taste amazing. We put a pinch in each serving to give you the benefits in the most subtle way possible.
Ask us anything.
Does :rise Cacao contain caffeine?
:rise Cacao contains a fraction of the caffeine found in coffee. On average, coffee contains 90-100mg of caffeine. That can vary up to +/-30mg, depending on the beans and the roasting method, according to the FDA. Meanwhile, :rise Cacao has around 35mg of caffeine per serving.
Is there sugar in :rise Cacao?
Nope. There are no sugars or sneaky sweeteners added. If it's not sweet enough for ya, try adding some of our own :sweetener. It's the least-bad sweetener money can buy.
Where are your products made?
MUD\WTR started in and operates out of Venice, CA. All of our mushrooms are American-grown, while the rest of our ingredients are sourced from all over the world, before being dropped off at our production facility by peregrine falcon.
Where are your mushrooms from?
All of our mushrooms are grown in the U.S.A., baby. We work with producers in California and Nevada, but only the very best of 'em.
Can you drink :rise Cacao while pregnant?
We're not doctors and we don't pretend to be. Consult your physician before making any changes to your diet during pregnancy.
Is :rise Cacao organic?
:rise Cacao is 100% USDA-certified organic.
Do you offer samples?
Negative, Ghost Rider. The pattern is full.
Do you have wholesale partners?
We sure do. We work with select cafes and markets that we feel represent what we do and serve our customers well. Interested in becoming a wholesale partner? Drop our wholesale team a note on wholesale@mudwtr.com.
Will :rise Cacao make me trip?
The mushrooms in mud are magic ... but they're not that kind of magic. Nothing in mud will cause a psychedelic trip, but if you're into that sort of thing, check out our psychedelics journalism on Trends w/ Benefits.
Is :rise Cacao Whole 30 Approved®?
It sure is. Whole30 HQ has made an exception to their "no oats and/or sorghum on the label" rule for MUD\WTR, as we use organic oats and sorghum to culture the mushroom blend. But because oats and sorghum are not present in significant amounts in the final product, Whole30 determined :rise Cacao is still Whole30-Approved® and compatible with the program.
