A new cafe in East Rockaway, Mush Coffee, is dedicated to serving mushroom-infused coffee drinks. Owned by U.S. Navy Reserve veterans Jenny Sprizzo and Doreen Xu, the cafe aims to provide a healthier coffee alternative. The idea was born during the pandemic when Sprizzo faced supply chain issues and decided to pivot from her import/export business. The cafe features small-batch coffees blended with various mushrooms, promising health benefits alongside great taste.
• Mush Coffee offers unique drinks like mushccino, mush-Americano, and caramel musshiato, all priced around $7.85.
• The mushroom blends include lion's mane and chaga, known for boosting brain function and supporting immunity.
• The cafe aims to create a welcoming space for those feeling lonely post-pandemic while promoting healthy eating habits.
• Open daily from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m., the cafe is located at 1 Dock St., East Rockaway.
This innovative approach to coffee matters as it taps into the growing demand for health-conscious options. By combining wellness with community, Mush Coffee not only offers a unique product but also addresses the social needs of its customers in a post-pandemic world.
