Ingredients
- 1 cup milk of choice
- 1 tsp honey or sweetener of choice
- 1/2 tsp ashwagandha powder
- 1/4 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/4 tsp pink Himalayan salt
- 1/4 tsp beetroot powder (for color)
Instructions
- Begin by gathering all your ingredients on a clean countertop. You will need 1 cup of your preferred milk, 1 teaspoon of honey or your chosen sweetener, 1/2 teaspoon of ashwagandha powder, 1/4 teaspoon of vanilla extract, 1/4 teaspoon of pink Himalayan salt, and 1/4 teaspoon of beetroot powder.
- In a small mixing bowl or a glass, pour in the 1 cup of milk. You can use any milk of your choice, such as dairy milk, almond milk, oat milk, or coconut milk, depending on your dietary preferences.
- Add 1 teaspoon of honey or your preferred sweetener to the milk. This will provide a touch of sweetness to your tonic. Stir gently to combine.
- Next, sprinkle in 1/2 teaspoon of ashwagandha powder. This adaptogenic herb is known for its calming properties, making it a perfect addition to your sleep tonic.
- Pour in 1/4 teaspoon of vanilla extract for a warm, aromatic flavor that complements the other ingredients.
- Then, add 1/4 teaspoon of pink Himalayan salt. This adds a subtle savory note and can help balance the sweetness, while also providing trace minerals.
- Finally, sprinkle in 1/4 teaspoon of beetroot powder. This will give your milk a lovely pink hue, enhancing its visual appeal.
- Using a whisk or a spoon, stir all the ingredients together until they are well combined and the powders are fully dissolved in the milk.
- Once everything is mixed thoroughly, taste your Pink Moon Milk and adjust the sweetness if necessary by adding more honey or sweetener, if desired.
- After achieving your preferred flavor, pour the mixture into a cozy mug. You can warm it slightly in the microwave if you prefer a warm beverage, but it can also be enjoyed cold.
- Garnish with a sprinkle of extra beetroot powder or a pinch of ashwagandha on top for an added touch, if desired.
- Enjoy your Pink Moon Milk Sleep Tonic as a calming bedtime ritual to help you unwind and prepare for a restful night’s sleep.

- Whisk for Perfection: To ensure that all the powders are fully dissolved and the flavors are well combined, use a whisk or a frother for a smooth consistency.
