Ningxia Red Shots … oh yum!

This week has been a challenging one.

Luca my 11 month old has been sprouting new teeth and really cranky at night.

I was down with the flu which means not much running got done , which means I was feeling even more crappy and low on energy levels. Wow, what an incredibly tiring week.

But part of the move this year to live a chemical free life meant that I wasn’t about to give in to these occasional sniffles. We’ve started using Young Living products too recently, and I find they really work. Needless to say I was happy when my Ningxia Red arrived in the mail earlier this week.

Before my run I took a shot of this superfood drink made from Wolfberry, Plum, Aronia, Cherry, Blueberry, and Pomegranate, pure vanilla extract and Lemon, Orange, Yuzu, and Tangerine essential oils – tasted tart, sweet, and tangy all at the same time with a lovely after taste of Yuzu and Gojiberries. Really yummy.

Some folks do shots of vodka, I do shots of Ningxia Red. Great way to start the day with this boost of antioxidants… haha.

Here’s another great recipe I want to share with you guys. It’s super delish and best taken first thing in the morn.. 

1 Shot of Ningxia Red
1 TBSP of Apple Cider Vinegar (Raw, Unfiltered, containing the mother)
2 Drops of Thieves (Clove, Lemon, Rosemary, Cinnamon and Eucalyptus EO blend)
1 Drop Lemon
Water to 350ml
