The two-minute swap that starts the desk day

3 minutes Serves 1

A stirred, frothed coffee built on our FOCUS Lion's Mane powder. No blender, no ceremony, just a better version of the cup you were making anyway.

Ingredients

1 scoop FOCUS Lion's Mane powder
1 shot espresso or 120ml strong filter coffee
150ml oat milk, barista style
1 tsp maple syrup, optional
Pinch of sea salt

Method

1
Warm the oat milk gently, do not boil it.
2
Whisk the Lion's Mane powder into 2 tbsp of the warm milk first, to a smooth paste. This is the step people skip and then complain about lumps.
3
Pull the espresso straight over the paste and stir.
4
Froth the rest of the milk, pour, and finish with maple and the pinch of salt.

Cook's notes

Iced version: shake the paste, coffee and 100ml cold milk over ice for 15 seconds.
Dairy works just as well. Fat carries the flavour, so full fat is friendlier than skimmed.
