FOODIE DIARIES: What to Drink on Your Period

When it comes to finding beverages that may be helpful or comforting during menstruation, it’s important to consider personal preferences and individual needs. While there isn’t a specific drink that universally applies to all women during their periods, here are a few options that you may find soothing or beneficial:

  1. Cacao latte (caffeine-free): Mix water with cacao powder and lion’s mane mushroom extract and then heat in microwave for 1 minute and 30 seconds. Add stevia for a little sweetness.
  2. Matcha: Mix soy milk or any milk of your choosing and matcha powder. For taste, add stevia.
  3. Bone Broth: Pour chicken or beef bone broth into a cup or mug, and then pour heat in microwave for 1 minute and 10 seconds.
  4. Herbal Teas: Chamomile, peppermint, ginger, and raspberry leaf tea are often enjoyed for their calming properties and potential to ease menstrual discomfort.
  5. Warm water with lemon: Squeezing fresh lemon juice into warm water can help with hydration and potentially alleviate bloating.
  6. Smoothies: Blend fruits, vegetables, yogurt, and a liquid of your choice (water, milk, or almond milk) to create a nutrient-rich and refreshing drink. Adding ingredients like spinach, bananas, and berries can provide essential vitamins and minerals.

Remember, individual preferences and needs may vary, so it’s essential to choose what works best for you. Additionally, staying hydrated throughout your period is important, so don’t forget to drink plenty of water as well.
