If your bedtime routine is in need of a little extra magic, meet your new favourite nighttime ritual: Sleepy Girl Coco. This luxurious, velvety drink stars the Wellco Chocolate Elixir —a blend of rich cacao and functional botanicals crafted to help you unwind, de-stress, and gently drift into restorative sleep.
More than just a hot chocolate, this is wellness in a cup. With its adaptogenic ingredients and low sugar content, the Wellco Chocolate Elixir is designed to calm the mind, soothe the nervous system, and support a deep, delicious rest. Think of it as your post-dinner treat and your sleep support all in one blissful mug.
1 tablespoon Wellco Chocolate Elixir
1 cup plant-based milk (we use coconut for creaminess)
1/2 teaspoon maple syrup or honey (optional – the elixir is subtly sweet)
A pinch of sea salt
A dash of cinnamon or nutmeg (optional, for a little spice)
Collagen powder or a teaspoon of tahini (optional, for added creaminess and satiety)
Gently heat your milk in a small saucepan over medium heat until warm but not boiling.
Whisk in the Wellco Chocolate Elixir until fully dissolved.
Add your sweetener of choice, a pinch of sea salt, and any optional extras like cinnamon or tahini.
Pour into your favourite mug and sip slowly, preferably in your PJs, under a cosy blanket, with a good book or calming playlist in the background.
The Sleepy Girl Coco isn’t just about what’s in the mug—it’s about how you enjoy it. Making it part of your evening ritual signals to your body and mind that it’s time to slow down. This is your moment to decompress, nourish yourself, and get into sleep mode. And trust us: it’s so satisfying to finish dinner, skip dessert, and have this dreamy drink instead.
Whether you're someone who struggles to switch off at night, or you just love the idea of a soothing evening treat, Sleepy Girl Coco is the answer. Delicious, functional, and just the right amount of indulgent, it’s proof that wellness can taste amazing—and that bedtime rituals can be equal parts nourishing and joyful.
