Anyone ready for a little detox retox?

Giving up alcohol for two weeks is a big deal for many, especially if it’s something that’s habitually been a part of your lifestyle.

So how do you incorporate alcohol back into your diet and 80:20 lifestyle in the healthiest way possible?

This is where the Conscious Cocktail comes in!

A conscious cocktail is one that upgrades your usual alcoholic beverage to one that is allergen-free, spiked with a healthy dose of non-artificial sugar-free ingredients.

Today we’re featuring a twist on a recipe from our book. If you’re cleansing or simply don’t indulge in alcohol, try the cleanse-friendly version of this cocktail by simply omitting the vodka.

Need help finding a gluten-free vodka?
