#moon milk
This colorful, warm drink is called moon milk. Moon milk is the ancient Ayurvedic tradition of drinking warm milk infused with healing herbs and spices at bedtime to aid in curing insomnia. This beautiful version was created by Gina Fontana of Healthy Little Vittles. She is an avid follower of the Ayurvedic practice and has actually written a book, Moon Milk, featuring over 50 different plant-based, dairy-free moon milk recipes.

Pink Moon Milk is a dreamy sleep tonic, made with creamy almond milk, honey, and tart cherry juice. Tart cherries are a natural source of melatonin, which is responsible for the regulation of the body’s internal clock and sleep-wake cycle. It’s the perfect bedtime drink, and you’ll love the flavors of cherry and almond together.
Ingredients
6 ounces almond milk preferably homemade, storebought tends to separate when heated
4 ounces unsweetened Montmorency tart cherry juice
1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup
½ teaspoon ashwagandha powder(optional)
dried culinary rose petals for garnish
Instructions
Heat almond milk and tart cherry juice over low heat in a small pot.
Remove from heat, and whisk in honey and ashwagandha. (If you want to make it really frothy, you can add it to a blender). Top with rose petals and drink warm.
