TikTok Wellness Mocktails and Why They Work

Wellness Mocktails are trending on TikTok...

If you're on TikTok, you've probably seen the 'Sleepy Girl' Mocktail videos. There's a whole new trend going around where nutritionists are sharing wellness mocktails that feature functional ingredients and supplements. We love this trend - so here are our versions of some popular wellness mocktail recipes:

The Sleepy Time Mocktail

Servings: 1, Vegan & Gluten-Free, Sleep Support


See it on TikTok here!



Ingredients


  • 1/2 Cup of Pure Organic Cherry Juice
  • 1 Tablespoon of Magnesium Glycinate Powder*
  • Your choice of sparkling drink (such as Sap Sucker, Cove Probiotic Soda, or Kite Adaptogenic Tea)


*Make sure you are using Magnesium Glycinate NOT Citrate for this recipe!


Directions


  • Add desired amount of ice to a glass
  • Pour in the 1/2 cup of cherry juice
  • Add 1 tablespoon of magnesium glycinate powder to the liquid and stir well
  • Top it off with your favourite sparkling beverage


Why It Works


Cherry juice naturally contains melatonin, which promotes sleep and Magnesium Glycinate can help relax the nervous system which also helps you fall asleep easier.

We've all been there. You set a goal for yourself to work out more but you can't seem to get into the routine. The workouts might be too hard or you might not have the energy for it. The World Health Organization (WHO) states that at least 1 in 4 adults do not get enough physical activity. If you're inactive, you carry a 20% to 30% greater risk of premature death compared to more active lifestyles. If you have trouble finding the time or energy to work out, VILPA may be a solution for you.

Who run the world? Girls! March is Women's History Month, and March 8th is International Women’s Day. What better time than this to lift up the women around us! Because of the entrepreneurial courage of our founder Jo Anne & the continued efforts of our now owners & team (which is over 80% women), we have been serving Peterborough & The Kawarthas for over 45 years! We are thankful not only for the amazing women in our team, but for the meaningful connections we have made with so many inspiring women in our community.
