ADAPT

 

Adaptogens are trending up at the moment, and with all of the environmental stressors in our modern life it is no wonder. This blend mixes good taste with good stuff: raw cacao for antioxidants, minerals, and well being, reishi mushroom and maca for immunity and energy, maple for antioxidants and natural sweetness, ashwagandha and tulsi for managing stress and anxiety, beetroot, ceylon cinnamon, and licorice root for anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidants, and American ginseng for memory, calmness, and immunity. SALT FREE

Stir a teaspoon into your favorite warm beverage and make this part of your morning ritual.

Add a teaspoon to your favorite smoothie recipe for a little extra help with managing stress.

Stir into your favorite breakfast grains - the cacao & cinnamon with a hint of sweetness complements oatmeal, cream of wheat, or rice porridge perfectly.


 

Morning Ritual
~Serves 1~


1/2 small ripe banana, sliced
1/2 cup sliced strawberries
1/4 cup plain full fat yogurt**
1/4 cup milk (reg or nut milk)**
1 tsp ADAPT

Pour all ingredients into a blender. Add a couple cubes of ice if you like.
Buzz until well blended.
Drink and enjoy.

** Most herbs and spices are fat soluble - meaning they blend more completely and absorb into you better when delivered with a little fat but don't stress about it! Even a low fat yogurt or kefir will work and taste great here. The milk ( I love coconut or almond) but even regular milk will work - help to emulsify the smoothie. You could easily substitute water or your favorite juice.
