Ingredients
- 8 ounces Filtered Water
- 200–300 mg Magnesium Glycinate Powder
- 100–200 mg L-Theanine Powder
- ½ ounce (1 tablespoon) Fresh Lemon Juice
- ½ teaspoon Raw Honey or Monk Fruit Sweetener
- Pinch (¼ teaspoon) Sea Salt
- 3–5 leaves Fresh Mint Leaves
- 1 thin slice Lemon Slice
Instructions
- Fill a tall glass with eight ounces of filtered water at room temperature or slightly chilled.
- If you prefer a warmer cortisol water recipe, use filtered water that is comfortable to drink but not so hot it damages the beneficial compounds.
- Add a pinch of sea salt to the water and stir gently for five seconds to begin mineral incorporation into your cortisol water recipe.
- Measure 200-300 mg of magnesium glycinate powder using a precise kitchen scale or the scoop provided with your supplement.
- Add the magnesium glycinate to your cortisol water recipe glass and stir vigorously for 15 seconds to ensure complete dissolution.
- Measure 100-200 mg of L-theanine powder and add it to your cortisol water recipe, stirring for another 10 seconds.
- Continue stirring your cortisol water recipe for a total of 30 seconds to guarantee all powders are fully dissolved and no grittiness remains.
- Squeeze fresh lemon juice directly into your cortisol water recipe, using approximately half a tablespoon or one tablespoon of juice.
- Add half a teaspoon of raw honey or monk fruit sweetener to your cortisol water recipe and stir thoroughly for 10 seconds.
- Tear or gently crush three to five fresh mint leaves between your fingers to release essential oils, then add them to your cortisol water recipe.
- Give your cortisol water recipe one final stir for 15 seconds to ensure all ingredients are evenly distributed throughout the beverage.
- Place a thin lemon slice on the rim of your glass or float it on top of your cortisol water recipe for visual appeal.
- Drink your cortisol water recipe immediately to maximize the freshness and potency of all beneficial compounds.
Notes
Dissolve Powders Completely: Stir vigorously for at least 30 total seconds, breaking up any clumps against the side of the glass with your spoon. Use Room Temperature Water First: Room temperature water dissolves powders more effectively than cold water. If you prefer chilled cortisol water recipe, add ice after all powders are fully dissolved. Measure Ingredients Precisely: Use a kitchen scale for powders rather than eyeballing amounts. Drink Immediately: Consume your cortisol water recipe within 5-10 minutes of preparation for optimal potency.
