Description

A refreshing way to support better sleep and calm inflammation. This lightly sweet, tart, and fizzy mocktail is packed with natural sleep helpers and anti-inflammatory ingredients. It’s basically your chill pill in a glass—no heavy sedatives, just real food helping your body unwind.


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 2-3 oz 100% tart cherry juice (unsweetened)
  • 1-2 teaspoons fresh lime or 2 tablespoons pineapple juice (to taste)
  • 1/2-1 teaspoons raw honey or maple syrup (optional)
  • Magnesium powder (from a pill or powder supplement)- dosage will vary per individual. See notes.
  • Pinch of sea salt
  • Sparkling water (to top)- choose unsweetened
  • Ice
  • Fresh mint leaf (for garnish)

Instructions

Notes

Magnesium Tip- I use magnesium bisglycinate since it’s gentle on the stomach and supports relaxation. Start with a small dose and increase gradually if needed.

*Disclaimer– Check with your doctor before starting new supplements in case they interfere with other medications.
