Description
This midnight tart cherry mocktail is a (dare I say it) better version of that sleepy girl mocktail that took TikTok by storm this past summer. It tastes like a sour cherry soda but with tons of health benefits.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1/2 cup (4 oz) tart cherry juice
- 1 medium lime, both zest and juice
- 2 tsp honey or maple syrup
- 1/8 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/8 tsp Celtic sea salt
- Sparkling water
Instructions
- Make the base of the mocktail. Add the cherry juice, lime zest, lime juice, honey or maple syrup, vanilla extract, and sea salt into a jar. If you want to add in a serving of magnesium*, feel free to do so now. Then either shake the jar vigorously for 30 seconds or mix using a frother.
- Combine with sparkling water and enjoy. Pour the mixture over a glass filled with ice and top with equal parts sparkling water – I like using 1/2 cup of sparkling water. Feel free to add in a lime wedge for presentation!
Notes
*Lately I’ve been making this mocktail without the magnesium and getting the same sleepy results! If you do want to add in magnesium, I love Arrae’s Calm Supplement and Moon Juice Magnesi-Om.
