Whether you are getting out the door in the morning or enjoying a moment of calm and peace, enhancing your beverages is a fun way to nourish your body with minimal effort. With a few simple additions, you can prioritize your health and energy throughout the day with these healthy drinks for energy.

When your hands are full (as a mama to 3 small children, I get it), planning meals and thinking about cooking is an extra task, but adding nutrients to your drinks comes alongside your daily rhythms.

I’ve found that enhancing my beverages is a great way to get a nutrition boost without taking much time, energy or clean up. If you are running to an appointment, out the door to work or school, or feeding the baby, you can still prioritize yourself with these healthy drinks for energy you can make easily at home.

You would laugh at the assortment of glasses and drinks that I accumulate throughout the day!

Staying properly hydrated is a key foundation to proper nutrition, energy and mood. These are fun and colorful healthy drinks besides water (that gets boring after a while) that will add joy and nutrition to your day, without taking another bowls of vitamins or adding another item to your to-do list.

Are you a beverage lady like me? Team ALLLLLL. the. beverages.

Here are some fun and colorful healthy drinks to add joy and nutrition to your day, without the need for supplements, clean up or much time!

Matcha

Matcha is a slow burning source of caffeine, released in the body at a gentle pace allowing for longer peak effects and mental clarity rather than the jittery spike and dependency of caffeinated coffee.

L-theanine, a rare amino acid found in matcha, boosts mental clarity, focus and gives you a calm sense of energy. L-theanine beautifully calms racing thoughts and also promotes deep sleep at night.

Pausing mid-day for a matcha + chocolate break has become a beautiful ritual and momentary pause from the hustle and bustle of the day. 

When you need a boost of energy and focus, customize this Iced Vanilla Matcha Latte or make this dreamy Iced Rose Matcha Latte to fit your desired taste.

Optional Add-Ins: Manuka Honey

Mushroom Magic

Add functional adaptogens to your morning coffee or tea for daily balance, focus and calm.

This blend of medicinal mushrooms is a modern woman’s best friend to support balance, focus, calm and health. Adaptogens help you navigate your unique stressor, giving you what you need in the moment, either producing a calming or energizing effect.

Mushroom Magic encourages you to navigate the demands of life with more ease and energy. If you feel frazzled, overwhelmed or anxious in the morning or throughout the day, you’ll notice the biggest difference with this simple addition.

It really is MAGIC! I’ve been using this for about a week and definitely have noticed just feeling more balanced in my emotions! – Kara

Lemon Lime Hemp Flower Collagen

I adore this refreshing hemp infused collagen—so much that sometimes I drink it twice a day! It’s my secret for energetic afternoons instead of reaching for caffeine or snacks. Three blends of collagen, including eggshell collagen rich in calcium which is key for pregnancy, postpartum and strong bones and teeth as you age, supports a balanced blood sugar response and metabolism. This hemp collagen calms cravings, decreases inflammation and enhances your metabolism so your weight and energy will normalize.

I make this Lemon Lime Collagen each afternoon when I am tempted to reach for cookies and coffee to get me through that inevitable afternoon slump. Truthfully I’ve never liked collagen until I tried this and now I can’t stop drinking it!!

Hemp flower (CBG is the “mother of cannabinoids”) is anti-inflammatory, mood balancing and calming.

Hemp flower naturally eases the rush of the afternoon when the responsibilities and demands can pile up, calms the central nervous system and increases GABA production to help you feel less overwhelmed and overstimulated.

Fun fact: Collagen production in women starts declining at age 20. Collagen is essential for skin elasticity, muscle recovery and hair growth.

It’s SO filling and takes away the afternoon sugar cravings! I find myself looking forward to 2pm every day! – Wendy

Tart Cherry Juice

“Mama I need my nighttime juice.” Every evening after dinner and baths, my sweet little ones gather around the kitchen asking for their ‘nighttime juice.’ It’s a rhythm we all cherish!

Tart cherry juice boosts natural melatonin production, it won’t make you fall asleep but it will help shift your body into deep, restorative sleep when it’s time for sleep. I’ve seen such a difference in my sleep and my kids sleep too with this simple addition. Sleep is better quality and we all wake up refreshed!!

You don’t need much, usually my littles get 1/4 a cup with a splash of water and I like to make mine with a squeeze of lime juice and sparkling water for a healthy spin on “cherry limeade.” If you don’t do good with beverages later at night, try drinking this with dinner.

Tart cherry juice is highly anti-inflammatory and works to reduce oxidative stress. It is also rich in potassium, a key mineral for adrenal, energy and stress support. Potassium, along with magnesium, is one of the body’s anti-stress minerals—it’s key for muscle relaxation, thyroid hormones and balancing cortisol levels.

Tart cherries are also high in polyphenols which act as prebiotics to boost the good bacteria in your gut. Polyphenols, also found in elderberries, black currants, blueberries and blackberries, are a key factor in helping your body absorb nutrients from the food you are eating.

*Be sure to get tart cherry juice, not regular cherry.

Optional Add-Ins: Magic Magnesium

Magic Magnesium

One of my favorite editions to my beverage line up—this is SO refreshing, calming and hydrating. Magnesium works with the body to provide personalized support in the moment. Either calming or energizing you and long term energy and hormonal balance. And that’s why I love having a glass in the evening while I make dinner! But this one you can try at any point in the day. The bright blue color will instantly perk you up and is so fun + beautiful to drink. A perfect combination for one of the healthy drinks for energy I’m showing you here!

“AMAZING! My husband and I have both been drinking this for about 6 months, and we love it! We like to mix it with a little orange juice and ice in the mornings with our breakfast to make it even more fun! It makes us feel so refreshed and energized throughout our day. We love all of the benefits that this magic magnesium provides as well. You should definitely try it!” – Arlette

This blue lemonade magnesium is all-in-one with 72 trace minerals for electrolyte support!

Magnesium is the body’s anti-stress mineral and is used up more rapidly to produce stress hormones like cortisol. Because we burn through it so quickly, many women are deficient. Magnesium is a foundational mineral to support healthy energy levels, bolster gut health and nervous system vitality. Ittrengthen muscle, bone, and dental health, and provide hydrating electrolytes.

Optional Add-Ins: squeeze of fresh lemon juice

Hydration Booster

The BEST electrolyte mix! You’ll notice a quick shift in energy, mental focus and all around gumption for the day as you sip this. 

Hydration Booster hydrates without the added sugar, artificial flavors or preservatives that most traditional electrolyte mixes contain. L-carnitine is an amino acid that turns your body’s essential fatty acids into energy, giving you an energy boost without any caffeine.

It has a light coconut (not overpowering, I’m not the biggest coconut fan and adore this) flavor that is so refreshing and energizing, especially if you feel drained!

In conclusion, these drinks are a great way to boost your energy and nutrition throughout the day, especially if you’re too busy to make a full meal. Each beverage is easy to make and can be customized to your taste preferences. Incorporating these drinks into your daily routine can help you stay hydrated, energized, and focused. So go ahead, give them a try, and let us know your favorites!
