About The Recipe
Imagine winding down after a long day with the latest social media sensation – the Sleepy Girl Mocktail. Picture this: a blend of cherry juice and magnesium powder coming together in a delightful drink that's not just tasty but also rumoured to help you catch some quality Z's. It's like a cozy nightcap, minus the alcohol.
In this article, we're giving the Sleepy Girl Mocktail a unique Cannabinista twist. We're spicing things up by adding a dash of dissolvable cannabis powder to the mix. Yep, you heard it right – the soothing vibes of cherry and magnesium now teaming up with the chill effects of cannabis. It's not just a mocktail; it's an experience, a personalized journey into relaxation.
Where did the sleepy girl mocktail come from?
The Sleepy Girl Mocktail, now a viral sensation, owes its popularity to Gracie Norton, the creative mind behind the original recipe. It all started when Gracie shared her concoction on TikTok, where her video garnered over a million views.
The momentum didn't stop there; Sierra Cooley's video featuring the drink's sleep-inducing qualities further propelled it into the social media spotlight. Cooley swears by the mocktail, attesting that it has facilitated quicker sleep onset compared to any other method she's tried. As a result, a wave of TikTok users joined the trend, recreating the Sleepy Girl Mocktail and sharing their experiences (including me). With countless videos showcasing the drink's appeal and efficacy, it's evident that many are on the quest for better sleep.
Features:
- Easy Meal Prep for Edibles: Crafting sleepy-time mocktail using THC offers a convenient method for meal-prepping edibles. The process allows you to prepare a batch in advance, making it easy to incorporate into your nighttime routine without the need for daily preparation.
- Get Creative with Flavours and Ingredients: THC-infused gummies provide a versatile canvas for creativity. Experiment with different flavours and ingredients to tailor the drink to your taste preferences, making the bedtime ritual a more enjoyable and personalized experience.
- Supports Better Sleep: THC (cannabinol) is known for its potential to promote relaxation and induce sleep. Making sleepy time mocktail with THC provides a natural and effective way to support a better night's sleep.
Ingredient Substitutions
- Cherry Juice: Tart cherry juice provides a similar flavor but with more anti-inflammatory and sleep-promoting benefits, making it a healthier option for those seeking muscle recovery or relaxation.
TIPS & TRICKS
- Pre-chilling the cherry juice ensures the drink stays cold longer and enhances the refreshing effect, especially when paired with ice and sparkling water.
- Dissolvable powders like cannabis and magnesium may settle at the bottom, so be sure to stir the drink well before adding ice and sparkling water to ensure an even distribution of ingredients.

FAQ
Q: Can I use a different juice instead of cherry juice?
A: Yes, any fruit juice like pomegranate or cranberry can work well with this recipe. Just be mindful of the sugar content if you're seeking a healthier option.
Q: Can I skip the sparkling water?
A: Yes, you can skip the sparkling water if you prefer a still drink. The sparkling water adds a refreshing fizz, but the recipe works just as well without it.
Q: How quickly will the dissolvable cannabis powder take effect?
A: Dissolvable plant powder is considered to be a cannabis edible, which means that it has to be ingested and processed by your liver before heading up to your blood brain barrier. The onset of cannabis edibles can range from person to person, and can also be impacted by a variety of factors, such as one’s metabolism. Generally cannabis edibles can take anywhere from 30 minutes all the way to 2 hours for the onset, and the experience can last between 4 to 12 hours.
