Solara’s Supercharged Plum Potion

Celebrate spooky season with some Hocus Pocus skincare magic!

Inspired by award-winning Guardian Angel and its signature exotic Australian Triple Plum infusion, our autumnal Supercharged Plum Potion features one of our favorite ingredients…nutrient-rich plums! We love them for their anti-inflammatory and antioxidant powered benefits for the body and skin alike.

The same way our Guardian Angel’s sunscreen formula helps the skin scavenge free radicals that can lead to premature aging, the vitamin-boosted plums in this seasonally inspired mocktail serve-up powerful antioxidants known to help reduce oxidative stress on the body. Blended with immunity-supportive dragonfruit, zesty lemon and edible glitter (yes, that's a thing!), you’re in for a spellbinding and moody mocktail.

 


To whip up this wickedly delicious potion, start by gathering your ingredients:

Plum Puree:

  • 2-4 fresh plums, halved and pitted
  • ¼ cup (2 ounces) dragonfruit
  • ⅓ cup agave to make sweet
Mocktail:
  • 1 large egg white
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • Ice cubes
  • ¼ cup club soda
  • 1 tsp of edible glitter (to really jazz it up)

Make the Plum Puree:

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F.
  2. Toss together plums, dragonfruit and agave (sugar or honey can be used here too—your preference) on a baking sheet; spread fruit in a single layer.
  3. Roast in preheated oven until fruit is soft and juicy, about 10 minutes, stirring halfway through roasting time.
  4. Let cool 5 minutes.
  5. Scrape fruit and any liquid on baking sheet into a food processor or blender; pulse until smooth, 5 to 8 pulses.
  6. Pour through a fine wire-mesh strainer into a medium bowl, pressing puree using a rubber spatula. (This may take about 10 minutes.) Discard pulp.
  7. Refrigerate, uncovered, until completely cool.
Make the Mocktail:
  1. Combine egg white, lemon juice, dragonfruit and plum puree in a blender for 5-8 pulses or about 10 seconds.
  2. Add enough ice first and strain new mixture into a fun chilled glass.
  3. Top with club soda, and add some edible glitter for a gorgeous sparkle moment.
  4. Add any garnish you desire!

Whether you're sipping our Supercharged Plum Potion under the glow of the full moon or serving it to your costume-clad guests, this drink is sure to be as enchanting for your skin as it looks in the glass.

Cheers, witches!
