Vanderpump Rules' Lala Kent drinks from a baby bottle to soothe her anxiety at night... you might try these. We know SUR hostess Lala Kent loooves a drink... we just never knew it came out of a baby bottle behind closed doors. When it comes to her nightcap of choice, she's literally childlike. Vanderpump Rules delivered a doozy when we saw Lala travel to Mexico with her fellow SURvers and sans diaper bag (or baby), whip out a bottle while she settled down after a long day of drinking cocktails and playing around on rope swings. Lala proceeded to pour a mixture of warm milk and honey, which actually sounds delightful, into the baby bottle, then tuck herself in under a fuzzy blanket while sucking on it like a good little baby who's going to get her eight hours of sleep. Scheana Shay, her hotel-mate, sleeping with a stuffed frog, was so shocked, she failed to mention Rob for nearly a whole minute. (Did you know he can hang a TV in under seven minutes? She timed him.) While Lala drifted off, she propped the bottle under her chin, and sucked away as she got drowsy. But she had an excuse: "I’m on a very low dose of my anti-anxiety medication, so when I do feel like my heart’s beating a little fast, I need my baba, and I put warm milk and honey in it,” she said. “It soothes me, like I’m a baby.” Who could argue if it really works for her? But most grown adults weaned off that type of bottle long ago so here are some alternative drink ideas to soothe you at night.

1 . A glass of red wine

Studies show some red wine relaxes you and even possibly makes you live longer. (Yay!) Red wine contains the body's natural sleep aid melatonin, found in the skins of red grapes, which will knock you out for the night.

2 . A sip of scotch or whiskey

We said a sip. Just a little brown water can help digestion, which can help you fall asleep faster after a big meal. Just don't go crazy, as a full cocktail can disrupt your sleep.

3 . Chamomile tea

There's zero caffeine, and a mug of camomile has known properties that soothe your tummy and relax you. Even add a drop of honey if you want for sweetness.

4 . Peppermint tea

Smells delicious, no caffeine, soothes your throat and is said to ease stress and help with digestion.

5 . Hot chocolate, not too sweet

Warm up some milk and drop a small piece of dark chocolate in, don't add sugar, just sprinkle some cinnamon on and sip away. It'll relax you.

6 . Warm milk

It's got tryptophan in it (just like Thanksgiving turkey) which turns to melatonin, the body’s natural sleep hormone. And not a lot, perhaps not enough to make a physiological difference — but certainly a nice dose of warm milk at bedtime can have significant psychological benefits. (Just ask Lala.)

What color are men attracted to?

Studies reveal that red is the most attractive colour to both men and women but, curiously, the two genders are attracted to the same colour for different reasons.

Scientists have revealed that wearing the colour red will make you more attractive to the opposite sex. Studies reveal that red is the most attractive colour to both men and women but, curiously, the two genders are attracted to the same colour for different reasons. Women are attracted to men wearing red because, according to one study, it sends signals of status and dominance. "We found that women view men in red as higher in status, more likely to make money and more likely to climb the social ladder," study co-author Professor Andrew Elliot said.

"And it's this high-status judgment that leads to the attraction."

Men, on the other hand, are attracted to women who wear red for more primal biological reasons, a separate study found. "Our research demonstrates a parallel in the way that human and nonhuman male primates respond to red," the study's authors wrote. "In doing so, our findings confirm what many women have long suspected and claimed – that men act like animals in the sexual realm. "As much as men might like to think that they respond to women in a thoughtful, sophisticated manner, it appears that at least to some degree, their preferences and predilections are, in a word, primitive." The two studies were published in the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology and the Journal of Experimental Psychology: General.
