My Top 3 Warm Drinks for Winter
Baby it’s cold outside and I don’t know about you, but nothing makes me feel more cozy than a warm cup of my favorite creamy frothy drink.
To most that drink is coffee but if you’re anything like me, coffee is not an option. But have no fear, because your options are limitless and I’m here to tell you about some yummy and nutritious drinks and why they stay as my top 3 every winter…
Speaking of coffee, what if I told you that you could enjoy it’s rich delicious taste without the caffeine, acidity and negative effects?! I’ve tried a few brands out there and this one just takes the cake. Nummy Creations tastes JUST like a cup of coffee BUT it’s only made of FOUR INGREDIENTS; Dandelion Root, Rye, Chicory, and Barley. These ingredients share some common benefits that will make you feel good about refilling your cup:
Loaded with vitamins, minerals & prebiotic/soluble fiber
Powerful antioxidant
Fights inflammation
Regulates blood sugar levels
Can decrease cholesterol levels
Promotes liver health
Supports healthy digestion
Just two scoops of Nummy powder and some hot water! I like to add Agave/Honey to sweeten the taste and top it with oat milk from my frother.

Ceremonial Cacao
We all know why we looooove chocolate as a society right? Yes the taste, but also the raw cacao ingredient is a mood booster amongst many other magical things. Cacao is used in ceremonies around the world as a heart opener- promoting healing, presence, and gratitude. I have been to a few of these ceremonies myself and have felt/seen some powerful experiences! Following these gatherings I began buying my own and using it as a nightly hot-cocoa-esk treat. Not only does it taste good and feel good, but it’s good for you too! Cacao has so much to offer:
High in minerals like Magnesium & Potassium
Rich in protein and fiber
Improves cognitive function
Boosts immune system
Supports cardiovascular system
Has antioxidant, anti-inflammatory & anticarcinogenic properties
Supports digestion
Improves sleep
Can boost libido
One of my favorite Cacao brands is Ora. They source their Cacao from Belize, Columbia, Guatemala and Tanzania… so you know it’s good! They also have some lovely flavors that they pair with herbs and mushrooms for synergistic benefits.

Immune Chai
Last but certainly not least is Immune Chai by Wildcraft Goods. As I mentioned before, I can’t drink coffee and therefore don’t do well with caffeine in general. Chai is my go-to drink when I need a little caffeine boost and this particular blend is perfect for me because it’s anti-inflammatory and adaptogen ingredients negate the negative effects of the black tea. It’s sweet spicy comforting taste is made with intention:
Astragalus for immune support
Ashwagandha for improved stress response
Turmeric for it’s anti-inflammatory actions
In my opinion, if you haven’t had this Chai yet, you don’t know what Chai is. Having tried many teas and tinctures by Wildcraft Goods, it’s important to me to have a tasteful and trusted source- especially when it comes to herbalists. Stop ordering tasteless sugar filled Chai’s from Starbucks, order something real and beneficial!
