Relaxation in a bottle?
29
I am a troubled sleeper. Always have been. Rather than drugging myself nightly with Ambien, I try to concoct a cocktail with amino acids and herbal roots to deliver the coveted sound sleep. I have tried Melatonin, Valerian root tea, 5 HTP and a Whole Foods sleep aid called DEEP SLEEP. Results vary on my type A–ness that day. In the NYT and some of my fave food blogs like The Nibble, I have learned about a non-alcoholic beverage that induces relaxation; the anti-Red Bull. UNWIND is laced with my fave relaxation go-tos-L theanine, rose hips valerian root and melatonin. With only 40 calories for a 12-ounce can (10 grams of sugar, the drink is all natural and OU kosher, in Citrus Orange, Goji Grape and Pom Berry) Will let you know if it delivers the tag line “vacation in a bottle.”
