OUR JOURNEY
Hello juice lovers, I’m Milly the creator/alchemist/boss lady behind the healthy cocktails. You will find me mostly in the kitchen & very soon in our newest healing space (The Hemporium) connecting/chatting all things health!
My journey with Healthy Cocktails began around 8years ago in my home kitchen where I was mixing concoctions to heal my body. It was then I realised I had a gift, a greater understanding of plants & how to use them for deeper healing.
I create/find my way purely through intuition - not even a thought tends to go into it. With a little patience the next recipe/liquid drops in, it is then put out into the world in physical form. I have created whole cleanse programs on intuition & over the years had some incredible feedback from these programs & protocols (pure healing).
I'm currently witnessing a huge shift in society, we are becoming more aware of the power of using foods/plants as medicine which is paving the way for a brighter future - hello Integrated/Complementary Medicine. With this growing awareness we are beginning to discover the true power of juicing/cleansing/fasting & being reminded that plant medicines have been apart of traditional practice for thousands of years to heal us from disease.
In recent weeks we have gathered together, collaborated to build a beautiful whole-foods cafe + healing centre in the little town of Carrington. The Hemporium is a place to connect, to nourish, to feel at peace.. To openly chat all things health/wellness & hopefully gain some insight into your next healing phase.
We are looking forward to welcoming you into this new space, cultivating a community of like minds, sharing our love for plants & each other. See you all at the Hemporium (Newcastle's house of Hemp + Healthy Cocktails)
“Eventually we will come to understand that love heals everything, and love is all there is”

WHY ORGANIC?
We are talking chemicals, sprays, antibiotics, hormones, GMO's, refinement & intervention. The conventional food sold on the shelves is no longer food in its natural or raw state due to the mass production of our food industry.
These industrial processes pollute our air, water & soil with toxic contaminants. Plants (fruit & vegetables) absorb these contaminants. People (us) consume these plants containing contaminants, these contaminants then accumulate & store in our systems.
In addition to this, conventional farming & agriculture permit the use of synthetic herbicides/pesticides/fungicides/artificial fertilisers & consider it a SAFE practice! These toxic chemicals linger on crops, contaminate the soil & are then consumed once again by us. These toxins accumulate in our body over time causing detrimental effects leading to numerous health conditions.
Removing unnecessary chemicals from your daily life can have a dramatic impact on your overall health & wellbeing. Organic produce is grown in a uncontaminated environment without the use of synthetic chemicals or genetically-modified processes. This is why choosing to eat organic may be the safest and healthiest option for you & your family.
Organic crops are also more kind on the environment and much more sustainable. We are so passionate about living a chemical-free life and truly believe this is our secret ingredient.

WHAT PEOPLE SAY
I always feel so supported & inspired by the healthy cocktail programs. I have now completed 2 juice cleanses (summer & spring) both have left me feeling energised, connected, less bloated, clear in my skin & clear in my mind! I have also called upon the Healthy Cocktail team for numerous events, retreats & workshops that we host through our yoga studio here in Newcastle. Everybody loves the combination of chemical-free juices, waters & broths. I would highly recommend the product & the service.
