Instructions
Step 1: Gather Your Ingredients
Start by preparing all your ingredients—orange juice, coconut water, cream of tartar, sea salt, and any optional add-ins you’d like to include. Freshly squeezed orange juice works best for its rich flavor and higher nutrient content.
Step 2: Combine the Liquids
In a large glass or a shaker, pour ½ cup of fresh orange juice and ½ cup of coconut water. These two ingredients form the hydrating, nutrient-rich base of the cocktail.
Step 3: Add the Dry Ingredients
Sprinkle in ¼ teaspoon of cream of tartar and a pinch of sea salt. These small yet powerful additions provide essential electrolytes like potassium and sodium to support hydration and energy levels.
Step 4: Optional Boosts
If you’re looking to customize your cocktail, now’s the time to add any optional ingredients. For example:
Stir in a scoop of collagen powder for an added protein boost.
Mix in 1 tablespoon of aloe vera juice for enhanced hydration and gut health.
Add 1 teaspoon of raw honey for natural sweetness, if desired.
Step 5: Mix It All Together
Use a spoon, whisk, or shaker to thoroughly mix all the ingredients until well combined. This ensures the cream of tartar and sea salt dissolve completely, creating a smooth, evenly flavored drink.
Step 6: Serve and Enjoy
Pour your adrenal cocktail into your favorite glass and serve immediately. You can also add ice cubes if you prefer a chilled drink. For an extra refreshing touch, garnish with a slice of orange or a sprig of mint.
Step 7: Store Any Leftovers
