  • Pinch (¼ teaspoon) Sea Salt
  • 35 leaves Fresh Mint Leaves
  • 1 thin slice Lemon Slice

Instructions

  1. Fill a tall glass with eight ounces of filtered water at room temperature or slightly chilled.
  2. 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.
  3. Add a pinch of sea salt to the water and stir gently for five seconds to begin mineral incorporation into your cortisol water recipe.
  4. Measure 200-300 mg of magnesium glycinate powder using a precise kitchen scale or the scoop provided with your supplement.
  5. Add the magnesium glycinate to your cortisol water recipe glass and stir vigorously for 15 seconds to ensure complete dissolution.
  6. Measure 100-200 mg of L-theanine powder and add it to your cortisol water recipe, stirring for another 10 seconds.
  7. Continue stirring your cortisol water recipe for a total of 30 seconds to guarantee all powders are fully dissolved and no grittiness remains.
  8. Squeeze fresh lemon juice directly into your cortisol water recipe, using approximately half a tablespoon or one tablespoon of juice.
  9. Add half a teaspoon of raw honey or monk fruit sweetener to your cortisol water recipe and stir thoroughly for 10 seconds.
  10. 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.
  11. Give your cortisol water recipe one final stir for 15 seconds to ensure all ingredients are evenly distributed throughout the beverage.

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.
