Adaptogens, mushrooms + Fair Trade organic coffee that is instantly ready whenever, wherever you are…and doesn’t taste like dirt (in fact, it’s delicious!). Café Rasa is your go-to cup of “I can do this,” combining organic coffee with the power of adaptogens and herbs for smooth and focused crash-free energy. Ready to just add water at your desk, the airport, on the summit of a mountain, or for the mornings you’re running out the door, Café Rasa features adaptogenic herbs and mushrooms such as red Asian ginseng, cordyceps, rhodiola, and more, alongside 60mg of caffeine from premium coffee.
Now you can have your coffee, and drink your adaptogens & mushrooms, too.
A cup of “I can do this,” Café Rasa is our antidote to an overburdened, overly stressed, coffee-crazed world. 2000mg of adaptogens plus organic, Fair Trade Coffee support smooth, focused energy, a more resilient stress response, and more so you can be more you without the crash—and it’s ready the moment you need it. Whether you’re running out the door to go to work, sitting at the airport, boiling water over a fire while camping, or just have a quick moment in the morning with a busy schedule, Café Rasa is ready when you are for your instant fix of adaptogens + coffee.
If coffee’s your thing, combining coffee with your daily dose of adaptogens and mushrooms helps to balance the burden that coffee puts on our body (helloooo cortisol spike) and leave you with calm, smooth energy. That’s why we created Café Rasa. Simply add it to your cup followed by boiling water and presto change-o… Rasa. Our original line of Rasa brew products are the ultimate self-nourishing ritual. And while we’re all for Rasa brew on mornings when we have 10 minutes to be intentional about taking care of ourselves, Café Rasa is there for you on those days where you gotta get out the door as quickly as possible (or out of your tent, or boarding a plane…).
Meet the Herbs
In addition to coffee, the six adaptogens in this blend were intentionally chosen for potency and balance. Totaling more than 2000 mg of adaptogens per serving (raw herb equivalent), Café Rasa delivers focused and sustained energy without the crash.
While energy and stress management are the driving force of the adaptogens in this blend, many of these herbs also profoundly support improved immunity, sleep, mood, and digestion when taken regularly.
Formulated by our Chief Herbalist, Café Rasa features six adaptogens for energy: red Asian ginseng, cordyceps, rhodiola, gynostemma, shatavari, and maca, plus chicory, date seed, and burdock for that roasty, full-bodied mouth feel.
What does Café Rasa taste like?
Café Rasa is Classic Rasa plus a serving of the smoothest and most premium instant coffee available. Adaptogens soften the downsides of coffee (less stress, less jitters, better sleep!), while supplementing the fatigue-fighting abilities of caffeine.
While many of the mushroom coffees on the market use cheap spray dried coffee, with its bitterness, burnt notes, and acridity, our custom freeze-dried coffee is flavorful, rich, and complex. Our coffee comes from Chiapas, Mexico and is certified organic and Fair Trade. 60 mg of caffeine never felt smoother or more satisfying.
Wellness doesn’t have to taste like dirt… that’s why we created Rasa.
It took us years to perfect Café Rasa. Here’s how it went:
We spent (literally) years testing all the instant functional coffee drinks out there, and there were approximately none, zero, nilch that we willingly wanted to consume every day, let alone enjoyed enough to crave. We heard time and time again that you didn’t want that sludge at the bottom of your cup, not to mention as an herbalist-formulated brand, we cringed at the lack of bioavailability in most powdered “functional” drinks.
So we set out to do the seemingly impossible: make an instantly dissolvable adaptogen and mushroom coffee that tastes as good as it is functional. One that you crave the same way so many crave coffee when you wake up in the morning (sound familiar?).
What this entailed was far more complex than “powdering” our existing Rasa and selling it, so it took us years of development to crack the code. Our process includes brewing the Rasa over several hours like a standard Chinese decoction—a process used for millennia—then drying it and granulating it to make it supremely delicious while remaining supremely dissolvable and bioavailable.
