Healing Adrenal Fatigue {The Singing Canary Drink}

The Singing Canary Drink is a delicious aid to healing adrenal fatigue. And it also has many other health benefits!

Last year I began noticing that I had symptoms of adrenal fatigue. I was constantly tired, and it was such a struggle to think clearly. I felt rundown and overwhelmed.
When I saw The Singing Canary drink on the Trim Healthy Mama Facebook page I noticed that it was supposed to be good for adrenal fatigue. I figured it couldn’t hurt to try it. And after trying it, I found that I loved it, and I do feel more energetic on the days when I drink it.

Singing Canary Drink

Ingredients:

Peel the yellow skin off of the lemons, but leave as much of the white part as possible. Slice the lemons and remove the seeds.

Put the lemons into your blender with 3 cups of water and blend well.

Pour the blended liquid into a sieve (I use a little fine mesh sieve.)

Pour the strained juice back into the blender and add the Vitamin C powder, whey powder, salt, turmeric, coconut oil, vanilla, stevia, and the lemon essential oil, if you’re using (I use about 4 drops).
Blend it all together.

Pour Singing Canary juice into a 2 quart glass mason jar. Top with ice or filtered water until the liquid reaches the top of the jar (ice is great in the summer, but I use a bit of water when it’s cold out). Put a lid on the jar and shake well.

Enjoy!

I pour mine into a smaller glass or jar and drink it with a straw, to keep the acidic liquid from getting too much on my teeth.

You can add more stevia if you think it needs it. This drink is designed to be sipped throughout the day. I keep the larger jar in the refrigerator and just pour the amount I need into a smaller glass.

If you’re suffering from adrenal fatigue or just need to be recharged, I highly recommend that you give this drink a try!

  1. Interesting recipe. When I try it, however, I’ll go with plant based protein powder. After years of using whey protein supplements, I started coming across more and more cautions about them and made the switch.

        1. You’re welcome, Catherine! Regarding the pea protein, I’m not completely sure it would be “on plan.” This drink is a fuel pull with the whey and/or collagen, but I’m not sure how pea protein would affect that.

          1. Hello Joy,

            I have been battling with adrenal fatigue, specially when traveling home (22 hours flight) where it gets to the worse, the diets are not easy to follow unless you have all the time to be in the kitchen 🙁 . This seems like an excellent start point to me, could you please please share it??? I am also looking at your other post about the topic! thanks a lot !!!

          2. Sorry to hear you’re dealing with adrenal fatigue, Liz. I know how difficult that is. I just sent you the instructions! 🙂

    1. Hi Meryem,

      I think it’s probably different for everyone, as it depends on how depleted your adrenals are. For me, this drink was only one small part of healing my adrenal fatigue. I explain more about how I got my health back in this post.

  18. The Singing Canary may be my very favorite thing about THM! I make it in bulk and freeze it into ice cubes. And, because I’m not into things very sweet, I don’t add the sweetener. But it’s an almost-every-day-sipper in my house!

    1. What a great idea to freeze it into ice cubes! That would make it a lot more convenient. I may have to try that!

  19. I know this post is almost 5 months old, but could I also trouble you to email me your rewrite/directions for this recipe? I read through the THM link and am somewhat intimidated!

  21. I've been wanting to try this…but I'm too chicken! 😉 How long does it take to make? I think that's my biggest hold up. Maybe I'll be brave this week. Thanks so much for sharing! Hugs, Joy

    1. Go ahead and try it! 🙂 I will be honest, it does take awhile to make. One idea someone else had for cutting off a bit of the prep time is to make little baggies with the pre-measured dry ingredients. Another lady made up a bunch in advance in gallon jars. It does seem to separate though, so it needs to be shaken together each time before you pour some out into a glass to drink. Hope that helps!

  22. Hi Joy, thank you for sharing this! We get tons of free lemons in the winter and this drink would be a blessing I think! Some days the energy levels just aren't there. Not sure if it is adrenal fatigue but I am sure this would help. I will probably use raw honey instead of stevia since I am not on the THM plan… Hope you have a lovely weekend 🙂
