Imagine your usual coffee routine got a little wiser, a little calmer, and – dare we say – less dramatic. A Normal Day, Dar Wasl’s beloved neighbourhood café, has teamed up with wellness brand Rite to add mushroom coffee to the daily lineup. Starting 15th January, expect smoother sips, familiar flavours, and a gentler caffeine hug that doesn’t stage a mid-afternoon tantrum.
What’s happening
A Normal Day is now pouring three new drinks made with Rite’s mushroom coffee: the Mushroom Americano, Mushroom Dirty Matcha, and Mushroom Spanish Latte. Same tasty vibes you trust – just with an adaptogenic twist that aims to steady energy, sharpen focus, and keep the jitters at bay.
Available from: 15th January
Where: A Normal Day, Dar Wasl Mall, Jumeirah, Dubai
The lineup – familiar flavours, new calm
Each new drink is designed to sit comfortably next to the café’s usual favourites. No reinvention, no overthinking. Just smarter coffee.
- Mushroom Americano – 21 AED
Clean, bold, and a little gentler than your typical Americano. Hot or iced, it’s the one you reach for when you want clarity without drama. - Mushroom Dirty Matcha – 35 AED
Matcha’s creamy, grassy goodness bumped up with a coffee edge – silky, indulgent, and excellent for long chats or long emails. - Mushroom Spanish Latte – 25 AED
Sweet, milky, and deliciously familiar – but with that added adaptogenic nudge to help you cruise through the rest of your day.
All three come hot or iced, so whether you’re braving the heat or nesting under a blanket, you’re covered.
What’s actually in this “mushroom coffee”?
Rite’s blend pairs premium Arabica coffee with a thoughtful mix of adaptogens and functional ingredients designed to balance rather than buzz you. The highlights:
- Cordyceps – traditionally used to support physical energy and endurance.
- Chaga – a mushroom celebrated for antioxidant properties and immune support.
- Reishi – the mellow one; associated with calm, focus, and less mental noise.
- Siberian ginseng – added stamina for the long haul.
- Sea salt & acacia fibre – a tiny hydration and gut-supporting touch.
- Only ~35mg caffeine – so you get focus, not fireworks.
We’re not promising superhero powers (yet), but it’s a switch from “rush” to “sustained get-things-done energy,” and that feels pretty modern.
Why this works for café life
A Normal Day has always been about the small rituals that make days feel better – unhurried coffee, thoughtful food, and the kind of place you pause in, not just pass through. The Rite collab keeps those rituals intact: the flavours you love remain first, while the mushroom coffee quietly adds a wellness layer. It’s perfect for slow mornings, mid-day resets, and afternoons spent catching up with friends – basically, all the moments A Normal Day already does well.
Final sip – should you try it?
If you like your coffee with fewer rollercoaster moments and more steady lift, give it a go. If you love your rituals and don’t like them tinkered with – relax. These drinks are made to blend in, not to steal the show. Same cafe, same comfy corners, just a gentler pick-me-up for the modern, slightly-more-resilient you.
Drop by, say hi, and order whatever feels right. If nothing else, it’s a good excuse for a midweek coffee date.
