We only use and recommend Young Living essential oils. Many of these drinks are made with NingXia Red, NingXia Zyng or NingXia Nitro. NingXia Red is Young Living's signature antioxidant drink. Young Living NingXia Red benefits include support for energy levels, normal cellular function, and whole-body and normal eye health. A daily shot of 2–4 ounces helps support overall wellness with powerful antioxidants.* You can become a Young Living member with one of our Essential Oils kits or our NingXia Red Premium Starter Kit.

If you’ll be celebrating the holidays late into the night, here’s a drink to get you through the evening. This fizzy delight contains wolfberries, white tea leaf extract, and green tea extract for a boost of crash-free energy. Whether you’re staying up to wrap presents or ringing in the new year, throw back a couple of these zesty zingers to feel instantly refreshed.
Ingredients
Splash of NingXia Red
1 tube NingXia Nitro

Lime wedges

2. NingXia-Rosemary Mule
Based on the trendy Moscow Mule, this refreshing mocktail is sure to be a crowd pleaser at your next holiday dinner party. Ginger beer, which is a non-alcoholic carbonated beverage similar to ginger ale, lends the drink a snappy flavor with a hint of spice. If you’re hosting a large group of people, you can easily multiply the recipe to make a big batch. For a quick conversion that serves eight, use cups instead of ounces for the first two ingredients and add eight drops of Rosemary Vitality for an herby kick.

2 ounces NingXia Red
6 ounces ginger beer
1 drop Rosemary Vitality
Rosemary sprig
Instructions
1. Pour all ingredients into a copper mug full of crushed ice.
2. Stir well to mix.

Tip: The toothpick method allows you to get a more subtle flavor with the Vitality oils. Simply dip a toothpick in the oil and swirl through your ingredients.

4. Cran-Raspberry Spritzer
When it comes to quenching thirst while tickling the taste buds, cold and bubbly is the way to go. This rose-colored drink checks both boxes and is as pretty as it is fizzy. Once you start pouring, everyone will want to be sipping pink. The tart, fruity flavor of NingXia Red shines through with added sweetness from juice and berries. For a sweeter drink, use more cranberry-raspberry juice and less club soda.

6. NingXia Red Punch
Don’t want to be mixing up mocktails all night? Skip the hassle and break out the punch bowl instead. The beauty of this big-batch drink is that you can make it ahead of time, leaving you free to mingle with guests.
