How To Make Your Own MUD/WTR: A Coffee Alternative

Jump to Recipe

Mud/Wtr is a coffee alternative that gives you more focus and natural energy without the crash. If you have heard about Mud/Wtr you know how expensive it can be to buy it from the company themselves. My husband and I have a DIY mud wtr recipe that tastes exactly like the original. 

If you do not want to make your own and are just wanting to buy it straight from Mud/Wtr then you can check them out here. They are a great company with a powerful mission.

WHY WE SWITCHED TO MUD/WTR

My husband loves his coffee. He drinks a few cups per day. Heck, his family even owns a coffee shop! Coffee is love. This is no dissing on coffee. 

 However, he started to notice horrible stomach cramping after drinking his morning ritual. After some elimination, we discovered coffee was giving him trouble. Strong amounts of caffeine were the culprit as well as the acidity in coffee. 

My husband is a wrestling coach. If you know wrestlers, you know they don’t complain about much unless something is going on! I knew when he was curled up in a ball on the couch we had to make a change. 

When visiting my cousin in Arizona, I told my aunt all about my husband’s conundrum with coffee. They too were having the same issues! She told me she switched to drinking the mud wtr alternative and I was intrigued. 

When I heard the price tag was nearly $1.66+ per serving I nearly choked. With research from my aunt and a little help from the internet, we found the perfect recipe.

 I have EVERYTHING you need in the links below. This recipe’s cost comes down to 100 servings for $.48 to $.76 (depending on how large your tablespoons are etc.) and In other words .48-.76 cents per serving. That is much better!

HOW TO MAKE MUD/WTR + TOOLS YOU WILL NEED

The process could not be any more simple. You will get a large mixing bowl out with a whisk and a measuring cup.

Once you have all of your ingredients above, open the bag and start mixing them all. Please do not mix the creamer to the MUD/WTR recipe. This is only for adding after the drink is hot and prepared.

Store in an airtight container, and use 1 Tablespoon per cup of water or milk of choice. If you are using the superfood creamer, use about a teaspoon for every cup.

You will also need a milk frother to blend it all together.
