MUD\WTR earns mixed reviews: devotees report steady, jitter-free focus and soothing Rest blends, while critics call the earthy, chai-cacao flavors weak or muddy with grainy sediment and little caffeine kick. Reviews praise attractive packaging and versatile recipes with oat or coconut milk and sweeteners, but recurring complaints cite separability requiring a frother, occasional digestive upset, staining, and a taste that rarely replaces coffee.

The product itself isn’t too bad . I just suggested you DO NOT BUY FROM THE WEBSITE!!!! Especially if you just want to try it . They advertised this big promotion with a tin and frother. For $60 CAD I thought the deal isn’t too bad . Come to find out you pay 10 dollars for a membership fee … what is this membership you may ask ? Cause they definitely won’t make it clear that “membership” isn’t for the wellness app and community. It’s for 4 weeks later when they take $70 CAD out of your back account with no warning and send you just a tin..$70 CAD for 150g of product is Robery if you ask me .

I bought a small bag from Target, figuring I will try it out since I like Chai and Cocoa flavors. I was severely disappointed. The instructions say to add a tablespoon to a coffee mug size essentially. I did and added some hot milk. It tasted like I was drinking pure hot water. Almost zero flavor. I added a 2nd tablespoon to the cup. AGAIN. ZERO flavor. If you handed it to me and told me i was just drinking hot water I would've believed you. Not sure if they need better flavors or stronger flavors or better proportions but this one just doesn't hit for me. While I was pouring it down the drain, I stopped before the bottom of the cup figuring maybe all the flavor settled at the bottom. Nope. Still tasted like water.
I absolutely love mudwtr. I’m on my third tin of the OG. It definitely has abit of an earthy taste but I really enjoy it. I have to have it with some milk otherwise it’s too bitter. Secondly you absolutely have to use a frother. Don’t even attempt to drink it without using one. I also just got the pumpkin spice latte (as shown in the photos) and it’s delicious! Very strong on the pumpkin spice flavour and just the right sweetness. I frothed it with mainly hot water and just a splash of milk. One thing to note it I use a white ember mug and it stains it bright yellow…so I can only imagine what it’s doing to my teeth. So if you drink a lot of it I suggest the occasional teeth whitening strip to counter to staining it must be doing. Overall I really like the products I try and will continue to purchase.

I really enjoyed the Mud Wtr Hot Cocoa. It’s gluten free and vegan with adaptogens. It was easy to make and tastes even better with oat milk. I topped it with oat milk whipping cream too and it was even better!

I've used MUD/WTR for about 3 months, not in a daily ritual but in a several times a week ritual. I've come to appreciate it over time but I do think the 'brain benefits' are oversold. Rather, what I love is it's a gentle wake me up boost. Only 40mg of caffeine (IIRC) helps get me going without having me wired. I like it as a first thing in the morning caffeine starter before breakfast followed by a proper coffee later. The taste is definitely acquired - honey does help - but it's better than simply palatable (especially if you're already accustom to straight coffee).

I have been searching for a good mushroom coffee and I finally found the one. The taste is like nothing I have ever had before, great tasting. I use a milk alternative and a little bit of Honey. It's the best tasting coffee I've ever had. And keeps me alert on my commute.

My husband and I tested this together and neither of us liked the taste and we didn't feel any different after drinking it. For me, it's the smell, and for my husband, it's the taste. Neither of us felt the natural energy or improvement in focus so we stopped drinking it.

Just didn't jibe with my taste buds. If you've had (and enjoyed) some functional coffee replacements before, like maybe some of the four sigmatics coffees, might be worth a try, but I found it watery, even with the creamer, and not a bad taste, but nothing I'd look forward to. Would probably froth some milk and try adding it in next time.

It's good! I'm not sold on it as a "coffee alternative," probably since I drink a lot of coffee and know nothing can replace it for me, but I did find it enjoyable. It really does need to be thoroughly mixed though, or else you wind up with a sort of powdery, grainy texture.

I wanted to like this product but the taste just wasn’t something I personally enjoyed. The website was easy to navigate and cancelling the subscription was easy. I only tried the Mud/Wtr product and may try to the matcha before I completely give up on the products.


I had a sample of the Masala Chai and was not impressed. I tried to add creamers and sweeteners to make it tolerable to drink but I couldn't. It really did taste like muddy water :/ I have not tried the creamer yet

Cool concept but didn't do it for me. I think they could probably work on the flavors or formula to make it taste better while still being healthy

I decided to try MUD/WTR because of the organic, interesting ingredients they use and it has 1/7th the caffeine as a cup of coffee. The welcome box is very nice; you get a container of MUD/WTR, a USB rechargeable frother with three whisks, a sample of the MUD/WTR creamer, and fun stickers. I have been subscribed for several months now and the next shipment has always arrived before I've run out (I drink MUD/WTR daily). The taste can take some getting used to but I add a dash of creamer and that helps the taste to be smoother.

I’m obsessed with the matcha & drink either that or the Rise every single morning. I think it’s an aquired taste but I just add honey to sweeten it up! Delivery just seems to take a lot longer than your usual!


I purchased the product to supplement my coffee intake after trying a mushroom blend coffee and boutique shop in town while I was sick and it totally turning my day around. I definitely feel results with the classic mud but occasionally I still want my coffee, you just can’t replace the taste of the classic cup of coffee. I also have trouble with the “mud” settling to the bottom of my cup on my drive to work and I end up with a far less flavorful drink and a mouth full of mud at the end which I don’t love. I just recently started adding it to my protein shake post workout to boost my energy through the rest of the day. So far this is my favorite way to drink it as I can shake it periodically and I definitely don’t want another hit of caffeine after drinking pre-workout a few hours earlier! For this reason I did decide to sign up for a monthly subscription.

It's not a bad drink, but it is not a real replacement for coffee. It is mostly chai, which if you're already a tea drinker you'll enjoy the taste. It also stains your teeth like crazy! You need to brush your teeth immediately after drinking it. I bought a 30 day supply that has taken many months to finish, so I won't be buying this again. My overall opinion is just drink regular chai or try matcha.

I have been using mudwater for about a year now. I feel amazing and it taste amazing. My favorite way to drink it is in a morning mud shake with, 1tbsp of mud, Ice, goat milk, one banana, peanut butter, and cinnamon. They even have their own creamer that I love to add on top-- frothed.It has been an amazing switch from normal coffee and I have put all my friends and family on to this product!! If you have not tried this product YOU NEED TO!

Maybe include a matte black spoon with the mudwtr logo on it that is 1tbsp in size in your packages for first time buyers that sign up for a monthly subscription. Give that to them as a freebee on their first order for thanks for signing up for a monthly subscription.

I was curious about mud water since I saw it advertised online years ago, but couldn’t afford any subscriptions at the time, I have PTSD with severe anxiety and chronic depression so caffeine was like throwing dynamite into a tsunami, on fire; pure chaos, made no sense, and everything canceled each other out with aggression in my nervous system. So when my gut and mind finally got ahold of mud/wtr, I was elated. It lived up to it’s name, it is a lot like “wet dirt.” However, with the deliciously helpful recipes and finding my own groove, this quickly became liquid gold for me. Matcha became an obvious addition as well. The mud-whip tool breaks up the powder nicely in hot and cold liquids; even with a bit of spillage from high turbulence, but that could just be me (r.i.p. lost mud/wtr dribbles). I admire the realness of the company not just in character, but in their ingredients as well. I listen to all their podcast episodes, their emails are informative, and I want to visit the cafe as soon as I can make a trip out there! It really change me for the better not just for the kickass product, but the culture and dreams it’s created for me as well. I one day wish to work at mud/wtr, believe it not.

I’ve been with Mud/Wtr from the very beginning since the company started. I funny enough still have the first whisk Frother and the newer model which is more blocky. I’ve never thought switching from coffee to an alternative could make a difference in my life but it does! You can’t compare it to regular coffee because it’s not it’s more like a chai latte to me in the way it tastes which if it’s something you’re into like me you will absolutely love! It’s got 1/7th the amount of caffeine so if you’re a regular coffee drinker it will take 1-2 weeks to get used to but it’s so worth it. I can’t see my morning routine without it. What makes it my favorite from all the other brands out now it has evolved overtime and has a wide variety of products to choose from now. I support my local Sunrise!

I really enjoy making my own Mud latte’s with frothed oat or almond milk and a little bit of maple syrup. It’s delicious. I do still like a cup of coffee now and then but now it’s only a cup instead of 2 or 3. I also love the fact that I can have more later in the day and it actually helps me feel good as opposed to the coffee crash

MUD/WTR is one of the best things i started implementing into my routine during my postpartum period. Its rich fusion of cacao and chai spices offers a soothing yet revitalizing indulgence, ideal for those exhausting days. I use raise blend in the am & gold blend in the evening. Absolutely love all the ingredients and how it makes me feel <3
