The Drink
Energetic Alignment: Wisdom, Purification, Optimism
Inspire some Aquarian optimism, creativity, and perspective with this tart and tangy cherry, sage, and lemon concoction. With ingredients like sage and rosemary to cleanse old ideas and limitations away (and to temporarily neutralize Mercury retrograde energies), and cherry, apple, and lemon to inspire creativity and happiness, this cheerful beverage is a fun way to call down the Aquarius new moon for new insight and exciting possibilities.
You can watch me make this beverage for my series Magical Mixology on Witch With Me below.
