Sleep & Debloat Cinnamon Night Drink
Prep time: 5 mins | Servings: 1
Ingredients
-
Milk: 1 cup (Dairy, almond, oat, or coconut)
-
Cinnamon: ½ tsp ground (Ceylon preferred)
-
Sweetener: 1 tsp raw honey (optional)
-
Optional Boosts: 1 pinch turmeric + 1 pinch black pepper (to activate the turmeric)
Instructions
-
Warm the Base: Pour your milk into a small saucepan. Heat over medium-low until warm and steaming, but do not let it reach a full boil.
-
Infuse: Stir in the ground cinnamon (and turmeric/pepper if using).
-
Mix Well: Use a small whisk or a milk frother to thoroughly combine the spices and prevent clumping.
-
Finish: Remove from heat and let it cool for a minute. Stir in the honey last to preserve its natural properties.
-
Enjoy: Sip slowly about 30–60 minutes before you plan to sleep.
Recipe Notes & Tips
-
Consistency is Key: For the best digestive benefits, try drinking this for 5–7 consecutive nights.
-
Froth it Up: If you prefer a “latte” feel, froth the milk before adding the spices for a light, airy texture.
-
Storage: While best enjoyed fresh, you can store a pre-mixed batch in the fridge for up to 24 hours and gently reheat.
