Mushroom Coffee Caffeine Chart: RYZE, Everyday Dose & MUD\WTR
All three big mushroom coffee brands land in the same general neighborhood — roughly a third to half the caffeine of a regular cup of coffee. But the more interesting number isn't RYZE vs. Everyday Dose vs. MUD\WTR. It's that MUD\WTR's own flavor lineup, by itself, spans a wider caffeine range than the gap between all three brands combined — from completely caffeine-free to higher than RYZE, depending purely on which flavor you grab.
How much caffeine is in mushroom coffee? RYZE carries about 48 mg per serving, Everyday Dose about 45 mg, and MUD\WTR's Original blend about 35 mg — all well under a regular cup of coffee's roughly 95 mg. But MUD\WTR's own Matcha flavor runs 55 mg (higher than RYZE), while its Turmeric flavor is completely caffeine-free.
The flavor you pick matters more than the brand you pick
If you grabbed MUD\WTR expecting "the low-caffeine one" and ended up with Matcha instead of Original, you'd actually be drinking more caffeine than a serving of RYZE. If you grabbed Turmeric, you'd be drinking none at all. Same brand, same shelf, same general "mushroom coffee" label — a 55 mg difference depending purely on flavor.

What actually drives the difference
It's the base ingredient, not the "mushroom coffee" label. MUD\WTR's Turmeric variant has no coffee, tea, or matcha in it at all — just spices and mushrooms, which is why it's the only fully caffeine-free option here. Its Matcha variant adds real matcha on top of the same base, and matcha itself carries meaningful caffeine, which is why it edges out even RYZE's real Arabica coffee base.
Complete comparison chart
All products, caffeine source, and mushroom blend
| Product | Caffeine | Caffeine source | Mushroom blend |
|---|---|---|---|
| RYZE Mushroom Coffee | 48 mg | Organic Arabica coffee | 2,000 mg, 6 mushrooms |
| Everyday Dose Coffee+ | 45 mg | Coffee + decaf coffee blend | ~500 mg (of ~2,275 mg total blend), 2 mushrooms + L-theanine + collagen |
| MUD\WTR Original | 35 mg | Black tea (within masala chai blend) | 2,240 mg, 4 mushrooms |
| MUD\WTR Matcha | 55 mg | Matcha + masala chai | 3,000 mg, same 4-mushroom base |
| MUD\WTR Turmeric | 0 mg | None — no coffee, tea, or matcha | 1,840 mg, same mushroom base |
Everyday Dose doesn't publish an exact mushroom-blend breakdown; the figure here is a commonly cited estimate from its total 2,275 mg blend, which also includes L-theanine and collagen.
How each compares to a regular cup of coffee
| Product | Share of a regular 95 mg cup |
|---|---|
| MUD\WTR Matcha (55 mg) | 58% |
| RYZE (48 mg) | 51% |
| Everyday Dose (45 mg) | 47% |
| MUD\WTR Original (35 mg) | 37% |
| MUD\WTR Turmeric (0 mg) | 0% |
Worth flagging: some MUD\WTR marketing describes the Original blend as having "1/7th the caffeine of coffee," but the actual labeled figures (35 mg vs. a roughly 95 mg regular cup) only support about a third, not a seventh. That comparison may be measured against a much larger coffee-shop serving rather than a standard cup — the two sources don't fully agree, so the mg figures above are the more reliable comparison point.
What surprises people about mushroom coffee caffeine
- MUD\WTR's own flavor range (0–55 mg) is wider than the gap between all three brands (35–48 mg). Flavor choice matters more than brand choice here.
- "Mushroom coffee" doesn't always contain coffee. MUD\WTR's Turmeric and Original blends get their caffeine (or lack of it) from tea, matcha, or nothing at all — not coffee beans.
- The mushrooms themselves add no caffeine. Every brand's caffeine comes from the coffee, tea, or matcha component; the mushroom blend is a separate, non-caffeinated addition regardless of size.
- All three flagship products land within about 13 mg of each other — meaningfully closer to each other than any of them is to a regular cup of coffee.
- None of the big three publish full per-mushroom dosing. All three use a proprietary blend total rather than breaking out how much of each individual mushroom you're getting — a genuine transparency gap across the category.
Mushroom coffee vs regular coffee and tea
| Drink | Caffeine |
|---|---|
| Regular drip coffee, 8 oz | 95 mg |
| MUD\WTR Matcha | 55 mg |
| RYZE | 48 mg |
| Everyday Dose | 45 mg |
| Black tea, standard cup | 40–70 mg |
| MUD\WTR Original | 35 mg |
| Green tea, standard cup | 25–45 mg |
| MUD\WTR Turmeric | 0 mg |
All three flagship mushroom coffee products sit in roughly the same range as a standard cup of black or green tea — genuinely gentler than coffee, but not caffeine-free, with the one clear exception of MUD\WTR's Turmeric variant.
How many servings a day is reasonable?
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration cites 400 mg a day as an amount not generally associated with negative effects in healthy adults.
| Product | Servings to reach 400 mg |
|---|---|
| MUD\WTR Turmeric (0 mg) | Not applicable — caffeine-free |
| MUD\WTR Original (35 mg) | About 11.4 |
| Everyday Dose (45 mg) | About 8.9 |
| RYZE (48 mg) | About 8.3 |
| MUD\WTR Matcha (55 mg) | About 7.3 |
All of these are low enough that caffeine overload from the products themselves would require an unusually large number of servings in one day. The more realistic caution is combining a mushroom coffee serving with regular coffee or other caffeinated drinks earlier in the day and underestimating the total, since the low per-serving number can make people forget to count it at all. Lower ceilings are commonly cited for some groups: around 200 mg a day in pregnancy, and roughly 100 mg for adolescents. Sensitivity varies a great deal between individuals. Talk to a doctor or pharmacist if you're pregnant, have a heart condition or anxiety disorder, or take medication that interacts with stimulants.
Mushroom coffee caffeine: frequently asked questions
How much caffeine is in RYZE mushroom coffee?
About 48 mg per serving, from organic Arabica coffee, roughly half of a regular 95 mg cup of coffee.
How much caffeine is in Everyday Dose?
About 45 mg per serving, from a coffee and decaf coffee blend, close to RYZE and also roughly half of a regular cup of coffee.
How much caffeine is in MUD\WTR?
It depends heavily on the flavor. The Original blend has about 35 mg, the Matcha variant has about 55 mg, and the Turmeric variant has none at all, since it contains no coffee, tea, or matcha.
Which mushroom coffee has the most caffeine?
Among the flavors covered here, MUD\WTR's Matcha variant has the most at about 55 mg, edging out RYZE's 48 mg, even though RYZE is generally thought of as the "coffee" option and MUD\WTR as the "lower caffeine" one.
Do the mushrooms in mushroom coffee add caffeine?
No. Mushrooms themselves don't contain caffeine. All the caffeine in these products comes from the coffee, tea, or matcha component; the mushroom blend is a separate, non-caffeinated ingredient regardless of its size.
Is mushroom coffee actually lower in caffeine than regular coffee?
Yes, generally. RYZE, Everyday Dose, and MUD\WTR Original all run roughly a third to half the caffeine of a standard 8 oz cup of regular coffee, though MUD\WTR's Matcha flavor comes close to matching it.
Do these brands publish exact per-mushroom doses?
No. RYZE, Everyday Dose, and MUD\WTR all list a total proprietary mushroom blend weight rather than breaking out how much of each individual mushroom is included — a transparency gap shared across all three.
Sources and method
Caffeine figures are transcribed from product nutrition labels and retailer product listings for each specific item, cross-checked across multiple independent sources per product. RYZE and Everyday Dose figures were consistent across every independent source checked. MUD\WTR figures come directly from retailer-listed nutrition panels for each flavor variant (Original, Matcha, Turmeric); one marketing comparison describing Original as "1/7th the caffeine of coffee" does not match the labeled 35 mg figure against a standard cup and is noted as a discrepancy rather than repeated as fact.
