DIY Dry Elixir Mix

How much do you love your morning elixir?! It’s like a hug-in-a-mug. I have shared my favourite elixir recipes over the past few months (and you can find a few in my brand new cookbook The Simplicity Kitchen). There may be a few of you who haven’t tried an elixir yet, and this would be the perfect gift for you 🙂 If you love to start your day with a warming, nourishing, oh-so-satisfying elixir, then this is the perfect DIY gift idea for you to try.

Share your new found love with friends and family by creating these babies – dry elixir’s in a jar. Pre-make an elixir and share it as a gift! I even shared some packaging ideas, because presenting a gift is almost as fun as opening it.

Dry Elixir Recipe (makes 4 elixirs)

• 250-500 ml glass jar
• 4 tbsp of Dandy Blend
• 4 tsp of maca
• 4 tsp of chaga (dried mushroom)
• 4 tsp of lucuma
• 4 tbsp of raw cacao
• 2 tsp of Ceylon cinnamon
• 2 tbsp of turmeric
• 2 tbsp of matcha tea
• 2 tbsp of coconut flakes

To make your elixir:

1. Add 250 ml of hot water into your blender.
2. Add 1 tsp of butter (from grass fed cows), coconut oil, or ghee.
3. Add 1 heaping tbsp of your elixir mix into your blender.
4. Place a tea towel over the lip and hold it down.
5. Blend on low for about a minute
6. Serve in your favourite mug.
7. Great as a pick-me-up in the morning or the afternoon. It is very satiating, so it will fill you up!
