The best way (as if crystallized/dried it will degrade and lose potency) is just via ethanol. Get about 500g's dried and about a liter of everclear (151 also works) grind them up to a powder, let soak for a long time, strain, then evaporate in a slow cooker the volume of ~1 L to about the volume of a shotglass. 1 mL will be about equivalent to one 'hit' or gram or so. After you evaporate it down, add some ascorbic acid (vitamin C) it will preseve the tincture for longer. Then just keep it in a freezer. There are more in depth teks on Shroomery, btw.

Shroom 'tea' is a good means of ingestion, IMO. Also you could just grind it up even more and put it in a shot glass with lemon juice and just take it like a shot. Those two ways are usually how I take mushrooms, and I find shake is usually pretty potent, for some reason.
