6 Super Healthy Drinks To Cure An Iffy Mood!

How are you feeling today? Muzzy, touchy, stressed or just exhausted? Trust us, there’s a great little drink that can lift you out of that funk!

When you’re flagging…

make green tea!

A regular cup of green tea will get you over the energy hump for sure but matcha green tea adds more oomph. “Matcha is bursting with antioxidants and a rare amino acid – l-Theanine that has a calming effect on the mind while still keeping you alert,” says herbalist Tipper lewis. Try Tipper’s tea alternative – an energising latte.

Pick-you-up Macha Latte This is perfect if you’re flagging mid-afternoon and hankering after something naughty. With mineral-rich maple syrup for a sweet hit and nutmeg to help regulate blood sugar, it’s a lifesaver!

Make a paste… with 1tsp matcha green tea and a little hot water. Heat 1 cup almond milk in a pan with 1tsp maple syrup. When it’s warm, whisk in the matcha, pour into a cup and top with grated nutmeg. yum!

When you can’t focus…

try water plus! It’s a fact, lack of the wet stuff can kill concentration, reduce metabolism and give you the bloats. love water more by flavouring your daily eight glasses. Robyn youkilis, author of Go With Your Gut (Kyle Books), has a great glassful that works when you’re in need of a detox.
