CALMING BLUE BEDTIME LATTE

Planning your summer holidays can sometimes lead to anticipation which may lead to some serious lack of sleep! We all get so excited and anxious just thinking about the white sandy beaches that we have trouble getting some shut-eye. To help combat arriving like a zombie in paradise, why not brew yourself a cup of our special Calming Blue Bedtime Latte with all-natural ingredients.

Dried lavender buds are included in this recipe as they are traditionally sedative in nature and contain anti-inflammatory properties. Another calming agent, the dried butterfly pea flowers, are also added to create the most soothing shade of blue.

Before taking a sip, a dash of ashwagandha powder is added to boost the sedative power of this calming bedtime beverage and you will be off to dreamland in no time!
