Ingredients:
• 2 cups of Ice

• 2 drops Wild Orange Essential oil
• 1 drop Frankincense Essential oil

Therapeutic Benefits:
Wild Orange Essential Oil is festive, abundant, and sets a mood where happiness is almost the only option. Its chemical makeup of δ-Limonene, β-Carotene, and Citral give it uplifting and emotional restorative properties.
Frankincense Essential Oil is perhaps an unusual choice for a drink, but this concoction finds a certain stability with the earthy tones of Frankincense under the vibrance of fruit flavors. Frankincense contributes to a healthy brain and mood with the constituent 1,8-Cineole (2.9%), a dopaminergic that helps with healthy neurotransmitter activity.
