Not only is it an amazing sleep aid, it's super easy to make and can be made with vegan alternatives!

Want to make pink moon milk? Just replace the blueberries with beetroot powder! It's just as delicious and gives off a beautiful pink hue. Make sure you really add it as a night-time ritual by enjoying it at a slow pace whilst tucked up in bed.
