I have a big personal goal for 2023. No, it’s not to run a marathon or even reorganize my closet. It’s to visit an Erewhon Market. “Surely she can’t mean the luxury grocery store chain?” you may be asking. But I do. I dream of wandering the well-lit aisles of the food store that has beguiled Spencer Pratt and cornered the market on such upscale, you-didn’t-know-you-needed-it items like sea moss gel. Unfortunately, I’m mostly sequestered on the East Coast and where I reside is currently devoid of Erewhon locations. (But that can be changed — do you hear me, Erewhon gods?)
One such big draw to the chain is their often-viral collabs with celebrities on decadent smoothies, like Hailey Bieber’s 2022 strawberry glaze mix to Bella Hadid’s Kinsicle creation. On February 15th, the Love Potion was concocted with help from “8 Rules of Love” author and life guru Jay Shetty.
“Whether you’re looking for a romantic pick me up with a loved one or simply a way to show yourself some love, my goal is for this smoothie to bring you a reminder of nourishment to your body and heart,” Shetty says.
Erewhon kindly provided a list of the Love Potion ingredients, as well as some of the products, for me to try to recreate the Love Potion at home and live my vibe-y supermarket fantasies. Unfortunately, some of the ingredients were hard to track down in Miami, but the ultimate creation was still delightful. Keep scrolling to craft your take on Shetty’s Love Potion.
