Hi,

I know your inbox is getting hammered with Black Friday messages right now. So I figured you could use a survival guide instead.

Let's start with how you're going to get through Thursday.

You know the scene. Turkey's carved. Uncle Steve starts in on politics. Your aunt takes the bait. Suddenly you're trapped between the cranberry sauce and a debate about the economy while mentally calculating how many hours until you can escape to bed.

Here's your secret weapon.

Have you seen the "Sleepy Girl Mocktail" all over TikTok? It went viral last year with over 4 million views. The recipe is simple: tart cherry juice, magnesium powder, and sparkling water.

The science actually checks out. Tart cherries are loaded with natural melatonin and tryptophan (the same stuff that makes you sleepy after turkey). Magnesium calms your nervous system and helps regulate cortisol—that stress hormone that spikes when your relatives start arguing.

Here's the thing though. When I looked at the ingredients, I realized we already made the perfect version of this.

Dream Shot IS the Ultimate Sleepy Girl Mocktail.

Think about it:

  • 2oz of CherryPURE® Tart Cherry Juice (actual juice, not powder)
  • Magtein® Magnesium L-Threonate (the only form that crosses the blood-brain barrier)
  • 3g of Glycine to lower your core body temp
  • L-Theanine to quiet the mental chatter
  • Ashwagandha for stress
  • PeptiSleep™ to keep you from waking up at 2am replaying that conversation in your head

Instead of mixing three separate ingredients and hoping you got the ratios right, just crack open a Dream Shot.

My Thanksgiving Sleepy Girl Mocktail:

  • 1 Large Cube or Ball of Ice
  • 1 Dream Shot (that deep ruby red looks incredible in a nice glass)
  • 6 oz of Tonic Water or sparkling water

Pour the Dream Shot over the ice, top with your fizzy water of choice, and sip it while you smile and nod at whatever's happening at the dinner table.

The tart cherry base gives it that sophisticated mocktail vibe. The magnesium starts calming your system. And when you finally escape to bed? You'll actually sleep instead of lying there stressed.

If you need something stronger...

Look, I get it. Sometimes the mocktail version isn't going to cut it.

If your aunt is STILL at it and you need some help in the "falling asleep faster" department, clear spirits mix well with the cherry base. Gin or vodka seem to be the favorites.

And if you do go that route? Take a ZBiotics before your first drink. That way you won't pay for it during Friday's workout.

P.S. Turkey coma only lasts so long. When it wears off and you're lying in bed with your mind racing through every awkward moment from dinner—that's when Dream Shot really shines. The PeptiSleep™ keeps those 2am cortisol spikes from waking you up. Trust me on this one.
