But that doesn’t mean we can’t update this recipe with several science-backed spins. You’ve seen them all over the internet: Viral, colorful milks — from strawberry milk to the ever-popular golden milk. As delicious as they look (and are), they also can aid in sleep, relaxation, muscle recovery, and inflammation. Sip them as a healthy evening dessert or add them to your evening bedtime ritual to inspire sweet dreams. We’ve whipped up two personalized recipes for satisfying sleep — and four other options you can cozy up with! 1.

3. Drink strawberry milk for a dose of melatonin and B-6 Ever tried fresh strawberry milk? Not the Nesquik variety, but more like this video that went viral with nearly two million views. Real strawberry milk was a spring trend in Korea, and now this version can actually be a sweet bedtime send-off for kids and adults. We can thank the antioxidants, potassium, and essential vitamins in strawberries for that. Vitamin B-6, for example, is excellent for balancing the sleep-wake cycle and regulating melatonin . Strawberries’ high vitamin C content also makes this great for overall skin health . Think of it as an overnight face mask — that’s delicious! Our recipe: Strawberry milk Photo by Tiffany La Forge Ingredients: 4 tbsp. strawberry puree 2 cups roughly chopped strawberries 2 tbsp. honey, or to taste 1 tsp. vanilla extract a pinch of salt 8 oz. milk of your choice 1 tbsp. chopped strawberries Directions: To make the puree: In a high-speed blender, blend the strawberries, honey, vanilla, and salt until smooth and combined.
