Bonjour Drink Review: What Is Really in a 2,700 mg French Mushroom Cup?

Our analysis of Bonjour Drink: the formulas under the microscope

Bonjour Drink is a French brand and does not deliver to the United States, so there is nothing here to order and nothing to describe from a personal cup. This page is an analysis of what the brand publishes: the full nutrition tables flavor by flavor, the prices as they appear at the point of ordering, the terms of sale and the refund policy. It is worth reading anyway, because Bonjour publishes a level of detail that most American mushroom-coffee brands do not, and it makes a useful yardstick.

The headline number is 2,700 mg of plant and mushroom extracts per 6 g cup, which the brand states is about 40% of the powder by weight. More importantly, that total is broken down. Contrary to what this page previously claimed, Bonjour does publish the amount of each mushroom, and it publishes a separate table for every flavor.

📌 Original: the daytime formula

Original is the reference recipe, a mocha-style cup with toasted cereal and cocoa notes. Per 6 g serving the table lists 750 mg of lion's mane extract, 750 mg of chaga extract, 750 mg of cordyceps extract, 300 mg of mallow extract and 150 mg of ginseng extract, which is where the 2,700 mg comes from. On top of that sit six micronutrients: vitamin B12 at 0.83 µg, vitamin D3 at 3.33 µg, vitamin E at 4 mg, vitamin K2 at 25 µg, selenium at 4.6 µg and zinc at 0.83 mg per cup.

Read the percentages carefully, because the label expresses them for three servings: 100% of the reference intake for B12, E and K2, 200% for D3 and 25% for selenium and zinc are three-cup figures, so one cup delivers a third of that. Original carries 35 mg of natural caffeine from green coffee, roughly four to five times less than a cup of coffee, with a stated maximum of three servings a day, or 105 mg. A pouch holds 30 servings.

📌 Café, Café Décaféiné and Choco Noisette: the same actives, different cups

The daytime flavors share the identical 2,700 mg extract base and the same six micronutrients; what changes is the carrier and the caffeine. Café blends Yannoh roasted cereal with 100% Arabica, at the same 35 mg of caffeine per cup. Café Décaféiné removes it. Cacao and Choco Noisette are the cocoa versions, and the hazelnut one is the flavor to watch if you have a tree-nut allergy.

This matters more than it sounds, because it means the choice of flavor is a choice of stimulant and of allergen, not of formula. The energy values move a little from one recipe to another, from about 20 to 22 kcal per serving, and one flavor uses a 4 g serving rather than 6 g, so the table on the pouch you buy is the one that counts.

📌 Camomille: the evening formula, and a genuinely different product

The night ritual is not the day formula with a sedative added; it is a separate recipe. Per 6 g serving: 4,355 mg of chamomile aerial-parts extract, 600 mg of reishi fruiting-body extract, 445 mg of green tea leaf extract providing 200 mg of L-theanine, 300 mg of passionflower extract, 180 mg of turmeric root powder and 120 mg of green anise seed powder. No caffeine, since the green tea extract is used for its L-theanine.

Two hundred milligrams of L-theanine is a real amount, in the range used in most of the published work on that amino acid, and 4,355 mg of chamomile is far beyond what a tea bag delivers. Chamomile belongs to the ragweed family, so anyone with that allergy should skip it, and passionflower and reishi deserve a word with a doctor if you take sedatives or anticoagulants.

The verdict on format and dosing

One scoop of 6 g in up to 200 ml of hot water or milk, stirred for 10 to 15 seconds, up to three cups a day. That is the whole protocol, and the simplicity is a genuine argument: no capsules, no machine, and a habit that replaces something you were going to drink anyway. Thirty servings per pouch means one pouch is a month at one cup a day.

On pricing, the store runs an aggressive discount structure that is easy to misread. One pouch is €56.00 at the standard one-time price. The partner landing page applies the LMC20 code automatically and shows the one-time price at €44.80, which is that 20% already taken off, not a base price waiting for a further discount. Two pouches are €100.00, or €80.00 with the code; three are €150.00, or €120.00. The flexible subscription is cheaper still, at around €31.20 per pouch for one, €24 each for two and €22.93 each for three, delivery and gifts included, cancellable at any time. A separate UK storefront prices the same 30-cup pack at £51.00 against a £27.00 subscription rate.

Effectiveness and what to expect

The brand associates its formulas with stable energy, clear focus, calmer digestion and stronger natural defenses, and says the ingredients are backed by more than 20,000 scientific studies. That last figure is a count of the literature on the ingredients, not evidence about this drink, and it should be read as such. The claims that stand on firm ground are the nutrient ones: vitamin B12 and D3 contribute to the reduction of tiredness and to normal energy metabolism, zinc and selenium contribute to the normal function of the immune system and to the protection of cells from oxidative stress, and vitamin K2 contributes to normal bones.

For the rest, the right register is traditional use and ongoing study. Lion's mane, chaga, cordyceps, reishi, ginseng, mallow, chamomile and passionflower are all long-used plants and fungi with a research literature that is real but not conclusive at these doses in a beverage. The label itself is clear about who should stay away: adults only, not during pregnancy or breastfeeding, and not alongside antidiabetic treatment or vitamin K antagonist anticoagulants. The site also carries the French regulatory notice that the products are not medicines.

Who is Bonjour Drink?

Bonjour Drink is operated by BONJOURDRINK, a simplified joint-stock company registered in Paris under number 928 039 221, with its head office at 229 rue Saint-Honoré in the first arrondissement. The formulas are developed with a French supplement laboratory the brand says it has worked with for over 20 years, and the blending, quality control and shipping are all carried out in France. The brand reports distribution through more than 3,000 French pharmacies alongside its own store.

On customer feedback, the brand's own page displays 4.8 out of 5 across 16,900 reviews collected through Loox and Trustpilot, and states elsewhere on the same page that 95% like the taste and 92% report feeling benefits, based on more than 14,000 customer reviews. Those figures are the brand's own and the counts shown across its pages are not consistent with one another, so they are quoted here as brand claims rather than as verified aggregates. The Trustpilot profile itself could not be re-verified today because the platform blocks automated access.

Bonjour Original against a standard mushroom coffee

The table shows both why the brand is worth studying and why an American reader cannot act on it. On disclosure, dosing and third-party control it is ahead of most of the mushroom coffees sold in the United States, and its 60-day no-questions refund window is unusually generous for the category. On availability it simply is not an option: the terms of sale stop at the Swiss border, and no amount of currency switching on the storefront changes that.

The Bonjour Drink range

The catalog is one drink in seven flavors plus a children's version. The adult daytime line covers Original, Café, Café Décaféiné, Cacao, Choco Noisette and Rooibos Chaï; the evening line is Camomille. All are sold in 30-serving pouches, on their own or in two- and three-pouch mixes where you choose the flavor combination, at €60 for two and €86 for three on the standard store listing. Bonjour Kids is a chocolate version sold in 30, 60 and 90-serving formats at €30, €60 and €78.

The store also runs recurring promotional bundles and gives accessories with larger orders, a milk frother with two pouches and a dosing spoon with three. Note that the flavor called Super Mix in older listings is now simply called Original; the recipe behind the current name is the 2,700 mg daytime formula described above.

Composition breakdown: what the formulas are actually made of

The daytime formula, extract by extract

Five botanicals make the 2,700 mg: lion's mane, chaga and cordyceps at 750 mg each, mallow at 300 mg and ginseng at 150 mg, all described as organic French-processed extracts. Lion's mane and chaga are sourced as fruiting-body extracts, while the cordyceps is a mycelium extract, a distinction worth knowing because it changes what you are actually buying. Mallow is there for digestive comfort and ginseng for vitality, which are the traditional uses. The six micronutrients are from natural sources the brand names: B12 from fermentation, D3 from boreal lichen, E from soy, K2 from natto, selenium from yeast and zinc from guava.

The evening formula, extract by extract

The Camomille recipe is dominated by chamomile at 4,355 mg per serving, with reishi at 600 mg as the fungal component. The green tea extract at 445 mg is standardized to deliver 200 mg of L-theanine, the amino acid associated in the literature with a calm, alert state, and passionflower at 300 mg is the other classic evening plant. Turmeric at 180 mg and green anise at 120 mg close the formula on the digestive side. The result is a genuinely different product from the day cups rather than a variation on them.

Buying Bonjour Drink from the United States

Bonjour Drink does not ship to the United States. The terms of sale, in both their French and English versions, define the delivery territory as metropolitan France, the French overseas departments and regions, the member states of the European Union, and Switzerland. The United States is not in that list. The storefront's country selector does display the United States, but only as a currency market showing euro prices, and a selectable currency is not a delivery guarantee.

There is a separate storefront at uk.bonjourdrink.co with prices in pounds, which is the closest thing to an English-language route, although its own English terms repeat the same France, EU and Switzerland territory. For a reader in Europe, delivery is free on the offers displayed, orders are described as arriving within 48 hours, and the refund terms are the brand's strongest commercial argument: 60 days satisfied or refunded on any order, one-time or subscription, by email to the brand with the order number, with the refund processed within 48 hours of receipt. The 60-day window also appears in article 8 of the terms as a withdrawal right, which is four times the French legal minimum, though that legal version excludes pouches unsealed after delivery.

Super Mix is fourth in our ranking of the best mushroom coffee in the UK, where its dedicated UK store is the deciding factor.

Technical analysis and expert verdict

Technically this is one of the better-documented functional drinks on the European market. Every active is quantified per cup, each flavor has its own table, the extract load is high at 2,700 mg and around 40% of the powder, the caffeine is declared to the milligram with a caffeine-free option, the manufacturing is French and a COFRAC-accredited laboratory is named. The evening formula is a real second recipe with a serious 200 mg of L-theanine rather than a marketing variant. Add a 60-day refund policy with no unopened-packet clause and the commercial terms are as clean as the label.

The limits are price and reach. At €56 for 30 servings the one-time price is close to €1.87 a cup, and the discount architecture is confusing enough that a reader can easily believe the €44.80 figure is a base price rather than the code price it actually is. Cordyceps arrives as mycelium rather than fruiting body, the reference intake percentages are printed for three servings and invite misreading, and several flavors carry hazelnut or cereal allergens. Above all, the delivery territory stops at Switzerland, so for an American reader this is a benchmark rather than a purchase. The LMC20 code takes 20% off for those who can order.
