PITTA-SOOTHING ROSEWATER MOCKTAIL 🌹💦🥒 Thi PITTA-SOOTHING ROSEWATER MOCKTAIL 🌹💦🥒 This goddess-worthy mocktail is perfect for when you want to sip something that cools your pitta but still satisfies your senses.

These key ingredients help soothe inner heat:

🥀 Rosewater is mildly astringent which gives it a cooling property both topically and internally. It’s great for balancing excess heat in the digestive system, helping to aid digestive discomfort, bloating and heartburn. Plus there’s nothing more nourishing to the heart center than rose!

🍋 If you’re not-so-new to Ayurveda you’ll know that warm lemon water is a key part of a traditional Ayurvedic morning routine. This is because lemon has a powerful agni boosting effect. Lemon gives our stomach the signal to start creating digestive juices and tells our liver to produce bile, both of which can help ease indigestion. 

🍁 Maple syrup encompasses the “sweet” quality in Ayurveda (plus, it’s derived from SAP - ojas, anyone?). The sweet taste soothes pitta and vata but can be a little aggravating to kapha, so consider substituting raw honey if you’re dealing with a kapha imbalance.

Ingredients (makes one serving - double or triple the recipe to share with friends):

• 2T rosewater
• Juice from 1/2 lemon
• 1T good quality maple syrup
• 1 cup plain seltzer (or lightly chilled hibiscus infusion)
• Optional garnish: cucumber, mint, orange, strawberries, etc.!

Directions:

1. Make the rose water. Add 1 teaspoon rose powder to a jar or glass measuring cup. Pour 1 cup boiling water over it. Allow to sit for 30 minutes then strain with a fine mesh strainer. Alternatively, purchase food-grade rosewater. 

2. Once cooled, add 2 tbsp of rosewater to your glass.

3. Add juice from 1/2 lemon.

4. Add 1 tbsp good quality maple syrup. Stir ingredients to combine.

5. Top with 1 cup plain seltzer (or alternatively a chilled hibiscus infusion if you want to avoid seltzer!)

Garnish with a few cucumber slices, mint leaves or orange slices! 🍓

☀️ Our Hot Girl Summer Bonus ends August 1st, so if you've been thinking about joining 2027 Ayurveda School, now's the time to say yes. Register before the bonus ends to claim your exclusive gifts with code HGS100!
