Tart Cherry Juice

Melatonin is a hormone that is secreted by the pineal gland which helps to regulate sleep cycles. It’s naturally occurring in tart cherry juice and drinking the juice can help support a more restful night’s sleep. Look for tart cherry juice with no added sugar. (1)

Hibiscus Tea

This fruity tea is made from the leaves of the hibiscus flower and provides a bright pink hue when steeped in water. Hibiscus tea is caffeine-free, making it ideal for pre-bedtime drinking.

CBD Oil

Cannabidiol, also known as CBD, shows promise in reducing sleep apnea and may help reduce anxiety, which can create sleep issues. CBD oil is used to treat chronic pain from inflammation, stress, and help improve mood. But not all CBD oils are the same; they vary in strains of CBD and potency.

The effective dosage will depend on the milligrams per dose of CBD oil you use. Start with a lower dose and increase until you find what works for you. This recipe is for 2 servings, so divide the recipe in half for a single serving. CBD oil has a bitter, earthy flavor that is balanced with the sweet honey and fruity tea. (2)

Tips:

• Always purchase CBD oil from a reputable source.
• There is no THC or psychoactive compounds on CBD. While it promotes calmness, it will not produce a high.
• Enjoy moon milk while hot for the best flavor and to avoid separation of the almond milk.

To Use: Sip this sleepy time moon milk 1 hour before bed to reap its calming benefits.
