Intuitively we know: Chocolate makes us feel good. We already naturally associate chocolate with sensual pleasure, love and pleasure, which could not be better represented by the common heart shape of chocolate pralines. But this mildly relieving and satisfying piece of sugar is not known to hide a bean with potent psychoactive effects. Standard supermarket milk chocolate contains very small amounts of cocoa and the cocoa has also undergone several heavy industrial processes to make it shiny and flawless. Even most commercially available dark chocolate is made from alkalized chocolate, heated to high temperatures and pressed with tons of hydraulic pressure. Unfortunately, in the quest to create the perfect chocolate with a long shelf life, most of the psychoactive components have been destroyed. That's why House of Shrooms strongly recommend trying to get your hands on some raw and whole cocoa beans, for the pure, real cocoa experience. Make sure the beans still have their skins on. You can often find these in most eco-friendly stores.

Magic Cocoa

The psychoactive effects of cocoa go great with those of magic mushrooms or truffles and can be combined in a truffle/mushroom tea to make a very pleasant, magical chocolate drink. It is a combination that has been used for thousands of years by the Aztec tribes in Central America for its synergistic effects. The cocoa makes the effects of the mushrooms more intense, but there is more to it.

Cacao is considered a teacher plant in itself and when consumed in sufficient amounts will induce a very pronounced mood. Cacao brings warmth and light-heartedness, it makes you smile and makes you feel good, just like chocolate does, but much stronger. Both magic truffles and magic mushrooms affect the way our serotonin receptors work: They will positively improve our mood. Banisteriopsis caapi , cocoa is not a strong MAOI, but in sufficient amounts will produce a mild MAOI effect, which is certainly responsible for some of the synergy between cocoa and magic truffles. The MAO inhibitors, found in cocoa, cause more serotonin and neurotransmitters to circulate through the brain at the same time, enhancing feelings of happiness and joy. Remember that this will also delay the onset of the trip, so prepare yourself well. Never combine cocoa with another MAOI it can provide a very unpleasant experience and this is partly due to the caffeine which will hit much harder. Buy Shrooms Online.

Anandamine

Anandamine is a natural cannabinoid, which is found in the body and also in cocoa. It is often referred to as the "happiness neurotransmitter" and is most similar to THC, which induces feelings of relaxation and happiness.

Phenylethylamine (PEA)

PEA is a chemical produced by the brain when we are in love. We also find this substance in cocoa. It enhances the feelings of love, empathy and compassion. It is also the building block for many psychedelic substances; For example, mescaline is 3,4,5-Trimethoxyphenethylamine.

Historical Evidence

Cocoa has been grown and harvested in Central America for thousands of years. It was highly regarded by the native Aztecs, both as a food and a mind-altering drug. Therefore, cocoa was reserved for the higher ranks of society, where it was used by the Aztec aristocrats and priests.

Cocoa was seen as a divine gift from the peaceful god Quetzalcoatl, the feathered serpent. As a result, cocoa had a lot of religious significance and was often consumed along with magic mushrooms during religious ceremonies, a tradition still practiced by many in the region. Many ancient Aztec drinking cups have been found during archaeological expeditions. They show the ritual use of cocoa and how it was used in religious ceremonies.

Using Cocoa With Your Magic Truffles/Mushrooms

To make your own magic mushrooms cocoa drink you need some high quality raw cocoa beans, untreated with the skins still on. The process is very similar to making an elaborate hot chocolate, but with the addition of magic mushrooms/magic truffles.

To get started, you need to make a mushroom tea as a base:

• Cut your mushrooms/magic truffles into small pieces. The smaller the better, as this will increase the surface area, allowing the tea to steep better.
• Heat some water. It should be hot, but not boiling.
• Place your truffles in a bowl and pour the water over them.
• Let the mixture steep for about 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• Strain the mushroom tea into a cup.

Now you have made the base and you can prepare the cocoa. Don't expect the taste of store-bought chocolate milk; you will be disappointed. Traditional and raw cocoa drinks, especially in these quantities, don't taste very good, even with a lot of sweeteners. We think you should learn to appreciate it.

• First of all, select 30-50 beans per person. Put these in a large, sturdy plastic bag and smash them to pieces with, for example, a piece of wood.
• Toss the crushed beans on a plate or baking sheet. Find a hair dryer and blow it, on the lowest setting, over the beans. The airflow will blow away the lighter husk, but the heavier pieces of bean will remain on the board.
• Now you can grind the peeled beans into fine powder in a coffee grinder. Do not grind for more than 15 seconds at a time, otherwise too much heat will build up. It is better to grind 3 or 4 times until you have a fine powder.
• This step is optional, but will enhance the tea. After the coffee grinder, the beans won't be super fine, so you can choose to grind further with a pestle and mortar, if you have one. After 20 minutes and some hard work, you're left with a pretty fine paste.
• At this point, your mushroom tea will have cooled down to about 30-40 degrees, which is an ideal temperature to combine the two elements. Mix the mushroom tea and the cocoa paste and stir well.
• If you can handle the taste, it's time to enjoy! Otherwise, add some sweetener of your choice to make it more drinkable, but avoid refined sugar. Buy Shrooms Online In Canada.

The drink is quite mushy, but surprisingly we didn't find it heavy on the stomach. After a short while you are well on your way to a cocoa-enhanced trip. Good trip!
