Aphrodisiac drinks are a tasty way to stay vital and maintain sexual health. The beverages are made from natural, wholesome ingredients that are readily available in the local grocery store. A diet rich in vitamins and nutrients helps the body and reproductive system stay healthy. Certain natural ingredients can help enhance the mood. These ingredients may be blended and mixed into aphrodisiac drinks, perfect for a romantic dinner, honeymoon or for encouraging your partner. While there is no scientific proof of a real aphrodisiac effect, foods which encourage circulation and stimulate the nervous system can increase libido. Eating healthy also primes you up for a romantic encounter.

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • Blender
  • Large frosted glass with two straws
  • Ice cubes
  • Fresh fruit (watermelon, pineapple and pomegranate)
  • Wheat germ (optional)
  • Water
  • Bottled seltzer water
  • Watermelon sherbet
  • Fresh ginger
  • Anise
  • Banana (optional)
  1. Step 1

    Crush some ice in a blender or using a hand-held ice crusher. Some blenders crush ice better than others. Pour in a quarter cup of water to help the blades crush and chop the ice more easily.

  2. Step 2

    Blend chopped seedless watermelon, fresh pomegranates and seltzer water with the ice. Add watermelon sherbet or another flavor for a creamier drink. Add a teaspoon of wheat germ, which is rich in Vitamin E. Serve some triangle slices of the watermelon on the side to feed to each other.

  3. Step 3

    Create a blend of crushed ice, fresh pineapple, fresh ginger and anise for an aphrodisiac drink for her. Add a banana to increase the potassium level of the drink. Potassium can improve energy levels, and she won't be "too tired."

  4. Step 4

    Mix up an alcohol-free Bloody Mary drink. Vegetables can also be nature's love enhancers. Start with the tomato fruit as the base for the aphrodisiac drink. Add crushed ice. Blend in carrots and celery, both of which are mild-tasting. Heat up the body by adding fresh garlic or scallions. Toss in some freshly ground black pepper, cayenne pepper or horseradish.

  5. Step 5

    Rely on the power of suggestion when serving these beverages. Let you partner know that these drinks are intended to have a sexually enhancing effect on their body and their mood.

  6. Step 6

    Share the aphrodisiac drinks. Pour into one large, frosted glass and use two straws. Sharing the glass will immediately draw you closer physically.

Tips & Warnings
  • Use the freshest local foods available.
  • Serve a cup of unsalted nuts with the drinks, which are rich in zinc.
  • Avoid eating fried foods which may counteract the affects.
  • Do not serve processed foods with the drinks.
  • Do not use tonic water in place of seltzer water, it is too salty.
