We’ve been longtime fans of Anima Mundi, a brand we hold close to our hearts here at The Chalkboard Mag. Known for their wildcrafted herbal remedies, they’ve been a favorite for anyone looking to infuse wellness into their everyday routine. With their Venice location open, you can experience the magic of their herbal offerings in a truly unique setting. Did you know they have a gorgeous, lush garden in Venice? It’s the perfect spot for intimate gatherings, events, or—like we experienced—their recent Mixology Workshop in collaboration with Pressed Juicery.
At the workshop, attendees learned how to create delicious, functional cocktails and mocktails using Anima Mundi’s potent elixirs and tonics mixed with the refreshing flavors of Pressed Juicery juices. Here are the standout recipes we crafted together:
Relax Tonic + Strawberry Basil Lemonade
This calming blend of Anima Mundi’s Relax Tonic and Pressed Juicery’s strawberry basil lemonade is the perfect way to wind down.
Here’s why:
+ Reduces stress: The Relax Tonic contains adaptogenic herbs like ashwagandha and reishi, which help the body adapt to stress and promote a sense of calm.
+Supports nervous system health: Herbs like skullcap and passionflower work to soothe the nervous system, making it easier to relax and unwind.
+Promotes deep sleep: Taken regularly, the tonic helps to improve the quality of sleep by calming the mind and body.
Euphoria Elixir + Hydration+ Dragon Fruit
This uplifting mix of Anima Mundi’s Euphoria Elixir with Hydration+ Dragon Fruit is designed to bring joy and mental clarity.
Here are some key benefits:
+Boosts mood and creativity: The Euphoria Elixir is infused with herbs like mucuna and kanna, which naturally elevate mood, reduce anxiety, and inspire creativity.
+Improves mental focus: The tonic enhances mental clarity, making it easier to focus and find flow in daily activities.
+Promotes a sense of well-being: Ingredients like raw cacao and rhodiola support the production of feel-good neurotransmitters, leaving you with a natural sense of euphoria.
Viridem Elixir + Citrus 3
This refreshing combination of Viridem Elixir and Citrus 3 is packed with detoxifying and energizing properties.
Here’s what makes it special:
+Supports detoxification: Rich in chlorophyll and cleansing herbs, the Viridem Elixir helps detoxify the body and flush out toxins, supporting healthy digestion and liver function.
+Boosts energy levels: With adaptogens like ginseng and moringa, this elixir naturally boosts energy without the crash you might get from caffeine.
+Improves skin health: Chlorophyll, combined with antioxidant-rich herbs, helps to cleanse the skin from the inside out, promoting a healthy glow.
Each drink not only tasted amazing but also served a functional purpose, thanks to the powerful Anima Mundi elixirs and tonics. Whether you’re looking to relax, boost your mood, or detox and re-energize, these drinks were crafted to support your mind, body, and spirit.
And while the drinks were definitely the highlight, we can’t let you leave without gushing a little more about Anima Mundi’s beautiful Venice location.
