Golden Zing Mocktail

Bright, zesty, and rooted in real nourishment, the Golden Zing Mocktail is more than a refreshing drink—it’s a functional tonic designed to support your adrenal health and calm inflammation naturally. The star of the show is pineapple juice, rich in vitamin C and bromelain, a natural enzyme known for its digestive and anti-inflammatory properties. This combination gives your immune system a gentle lift while also aiding in tissue repair—an essential part of healing when your body is under chronic stress.

Warming spices like turmeric and ginger do more than add flavor—they’re key players in reducing inflammation. Turmeric’s active compound, curcumin, is widely studied for its powerful antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects. To help your body absorb curcumin more effectively, a small pinch of black pepper is included, enhancing bioavailability by up to 2000%. Ginger adds an additional layer of inflammation-fighting compounds and has long been used to soothe digestion and boost circulation. Raw honey provides not only natural sweetness but also antimicrobial and antioxidant benefits, while fresh lemon juice offers a boost of alkalinity and supports liver detoxification.

What sets this mocktail apart for adrenal support is the sprinkle of mineral-rich salt—like Baja Gold—which replenishes vital electrolytes lost through stress, sweating, or poor hydration. These trace minerals are critical for adrenal function, helping to regulate blood pressure, maintain energy levels, and support the nervous system. Whether you're feeling depleted, looking to wind down without alcohol, or simply want to nourish your body with intention, the Golden Zing is your vibrant, functional sip of balance.
