Chocolate Peppermint Smoothie

I have received information and materials from ©Johnson & Johnson Consumer Inc. 2017.The opinions stated are my own. This is a sponsored post. #ForBetterTomorrows #BetterTomorrows #FallBack #CollectiveBias

I’m partnering with TYLENOL® PM to bring this Chocolate Peppermint Smoothie recipe. 

Has the time change messed anyone else up or is it only me? With fewer hours of daylight, I feel like I am tired earlier in the day and more often. And what’s going on with the kids? Even with the darker hours coming sooner, they still do not go to sleep earlier, and they still get up at the same time in the morning. I seriously need a jump start to my days.

It is no secret that the best jump start to a day is a good night’s sleep. That can be easier said than done, though. A few years ago while volunteering at a youth camp, my husband ran too many laps around the basketball court. His legs and feet were aching to the point that he could not sleep. A fellow volunteer gave him a TYLENOL® PM, and it helped him rest. Pain can make it challenging to get a good night’s sleep, and Walgreens and TYLENOL® are partnering to help those who are having issues with pain and sleepless nights.

In addition to a good night’s sleep, a quick and easy smoothie recipe is also a great way to jump start a day. This recipe can be made plain with no added sugar or topped with whipped topping.

    Good sleep is so important to our overall well-being and health! I take Tylenol PM and it works wonders! Your recipe is a yummy way to start the day! I love mint which if a natural mint is also healthy for us!

    We’re smoothie people at our house and your chocolate peppermint looks super good. ‘Tis the season for that flavor combination, that’s for sure. Tylenol PM has a place in our medicine cabinet as well. It takes the edge off just enough that I’m able to sleep when my body is stiff and sore. x

    I really could use a smoothie right now. I love the mix of chocolate and peppermint. There are nights when Tylenol PM is the only reason I get through. Thumbs up to the amazing smoothie and Tylenol PM!

    I have always had a hard time sleeping. I fight headaches at night, so this might be a product for me. I don’t know why I haven’t tried it or something similar as of yet.

    This looks like a great drink to start the day! We are in Arizona where we don’t set back the clocks but I feel the same about days being shorter but having absolutely no impact on our bedtime routine! #client

    Tylenol PM is seriously the best thing ever! I keep some in the nightstand next to my bed. I want one of those smoothies right now! I’m thinking of making lots of mini smoothies for our Thanksgiving guests!

    This time of the year I always find myself super run down and tired. Sleep is so important when it is the holiday season. This smoothie looks amazing! I love peppermint drinks during the holiday season. Thanks for the yummy idea.

    I used to use Tylenol PM a lot more often than I do now. I still use it when I have pain and can’t sleep, because for me it works wonders. BTW you smoothie looks delicious.
