So I got a cooling post for ya!
You know that sugar sodas are not good for you and can add to your waistline with every sip...and yet you still drink it.
Diet sodas are not much better (some say even worse.)
But I understand that plain water gets boring - especially when you're having a party or gathering.
Use the recipes for "Spa Water" below and quickly turn plain water into an exciting and refreshing treat without added sugar or chemicals:
Cool off...get hydrated and get lean and healthy!
Citrus:
Slice an orange, lemon, and lime into a large pitcher of water. Add ice, allow to chill for 1 hour before serving.
Raspberry Lime:
Slice a lime into a large pitcher of water, add a handful of raspberries. Add ice, allow to chill for 1 hour before serving.
Strawberry Basil: (My personal favorite)
Slice 10 strawberries into a large pitcher of water, add 5 leaves of basil. Add ice, allow to chill for 1 hour before serving.
Watermelon Rosemary:
Place 1/2 cup of small watermelon chunks into a large pitcher of water, add two sprigs of rosemary. Add ice, allow to chill for 1 hour before serving.
Pineapple Mint:
Place 1/2 cup of small pineapple chunks into a large pitcher of water, add 15 mint leaves. Add ice, allow to chill for 1 hour before serving.
Try all of these with your family and kids and let me know which one is your favorite.
