Ever tried moon milk? Stemming from an old Ayurvedic practice, drinking warm, herb-infused moon milk before bed is said to help you unwind and slip slowly and peacefully into sleep. Though many different versions exist, this one boasts ashwagandha, an adoptogenic herb also known as Indian ginseng that may promote a good mood and sense of calm. Plus, with the comforting goodness of nut milk, a tart burst of juice and creamy coconut butter, this beverage is sure to bring coziness to your night.†
