Because they don’t taste good and fermented mushrooms have an off-putting texture? I like the flavor of most edible mushrooms but the psylosibe are not tasty.
Microdosing is something I’d really like to try though, it probably WOULD be a really nice energy drink, something that just opened you and woke you just a little not bash you over the head psychedelic.
Psilocybin degrades in the presence of water and heat. It’s a pretty delicate compound. Pasteurization would destroy it from the outset and even if methods were developed to preserve its potency, it wouldn’t be psychoactive within a few days. People do make alcohol extracts of magic mushrooms that are (allegedly, haven’t done it myself) fairly shelf stable. So there may be some room to play with that. But booze and psilocybin are antagonistic so if.youre trying to trip and get drunk from the same source, you’ll either wayyyy overdo the psilocybin or get so drunk it reduces the effects of your trip
Oh I didn’t mean mixing it into alcohol I meant developing the psilocybin as an alternative fermentative product to alcohol. It seems that psilocybin doesn’t quite work that way though from what you and others are telling me.
I wonder why nobody’s tried fermenting hallucinogenic mushrooms and fungi into drinks
Would be hilarious to see someone try to turn that shit into an energy drink
