Blue Moon Milk

Moon milk might seem like a new trend sweeping the Internets, but it’s actually an age-old Ayurvedic remedy for sleeplessness. Curl up with this warm, caffeine-free beverage before bed and fall into a peaceful slumber.

I was originally going to call this a butterfly pea latte or blue matcha latte, but once I read about moon milk… and the fact that this was blue… well, blue moon milk seemed like the perfect name for it.

I know, I know, I seriously missed out on an SEO goldmine by not posting this LAST week before the super blue blood moon. But here I am, a few days late but luckily not a dollar short, with this recipe for a calming bedtime beverage that you can enjoy regularly, and not just once in a blue moon

Ingredients:

• 1 cup milk of your choosing (I like whole milk, cashew milk, and almond milk)
• 1 tablespoon maple syrup, or to taste
• 1 teaspoon butterfly pea flower powder
• 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon

pinch freshly ground nutmeg

• 1/4 teaspoon ashwagandha powder (optional)

Directions:

1. In a small saucepan set over medium-low heat, whisk together milk with maple syrup, butterfly pea powder, and spices until powder is dissolved and milk is warm but not yet simmering.
2. Whir briefly using a handheld milk frother for a latte-like finish, or whisk vigorously to create a fine froth.
