These Five Drinks Can Lift Your Mood

While you can't directly be put in a positive mood through food or drinks, there are specific beverages that contain ingredients that can enhance well-being. Green tea is considered a superfood because it contains L-theanine, an amino acid that contributes to relaxation and reduces stress. Kombucha is also an excellent drink for promoting mental health by supporting gut health, which in turn is associated with a healthy mind.

Herbal Teas Can Reduce Stress

When looking for something sweet, hot cocoa made from dark chocolate is an excellent choice, as cocoa increases serotonin levels and thus lifts the mood. Herbal teas like chamomile, lavender, or peppermint offer bioactive substances that promote relaxation and reduce stress. As an uplifting drink, coffee is unbeatable, as caffeine is stimulating and increases serotonin and dopamine levels.
