School is starting up and everyone is affected.  Whether you are a parent, student, or commuter (who is bound to notice the increase in traffic) when school starts back up it is important to start a daily ritual to keep yourself on track.  Here are the two drinks I suggest to add to your daily routine that will help your body keep up with the change of schedule.

Morning Alkaline Drink- This will wake you up and it helps bring your body’s pH level to alkaline which is proven to prevent cancer from forming in the body.  The drink is simple to put together.  Its just warm water, lemon juice, and apple cider vinegar. Try it instead of your cup of coffee first thing and feel the difference.  If you still need your coffee try a cold brew cup of jo instead because it isn’t as acidic.

Recipe: Warm water (you can dilute it as much as you want), 1 tbsp Apple Cider Vinegar, Juice of 1 Lemon, 1-2 tbsp honey *optional, and  1/8 tsp cayenne pepper *optional

Evening Golden Milk-  Golden Milk is a combination of coconut milk, coconut oil, turmeric, ginger, honey, and a pinch of pepper.  This drink burns fat while you sleep, reduces inflammation, and is a great drink for detox. Drinking this an hour before bed will prevent bloating or upset stomachs in the mornings which will make sure you are ready to take on the day ahead.  Plus the warm milk will make you nice and sleepy allowing you to fall asleep easily.

Recipe:  1-2 cups coconut milk, 1 tbsp coconut oil, 1 tsp turmeric, 1 tsp ginger, 1/4 tsp pepper, 1-2 tbsp honey for taste. Combine contents and heat until blended.
