I have never been an avid pop drinker, but there are many people in my life who are. It is a widely known fact that pop/soda is not beneficial to our health. However, people are still drinking it. Put the pop down and start expanding your horizons when it comes to what you want to drink. There are so many healthy drink options out there, and they taste good too!
1. Kombucha
Not everyone likes it, but everyone should at least give it a chance. It definitely has an acquired taste. The benefits that Kombucha offers are unreal. Show your gut some respect and grab yourself one of those infamous glass cough medicine bottle look-a-likes, Kombucha!
2. Tea
Whether it be green, black or some other kind, you can never go wrong with tea. Although brewing your own tea with your Keurig would be the best option when it comes to being healthy, grabbing a tea in between classes from the market will always be better than grabbing a pop.
3. Naked or Bolthouse
Although these drinks are jam packed with sugar, they are a great way to reach your daily fruit goals. I would advise you to always pair your smoothie drink with a lot of water. They are also filling!
4. Mamma Chia
Similar to Kombucha, these drinks definitely are something to get used to. It's not so much the flavor of the drink, but the texture. However, chia seeds are packed with fiber and omega-3s!
5. Hint
Not really a fan of drinking water? Hint water can help! Hint is fruit-infused water, AKA water with flavor. Although Hint may taste great, there are 0 calories and 0 sweeteners because, well, it is just water!
There are way more healthy drink options out there, but these are just a few of my favorites! I would recommend trying these drinks if you are a compulsive pop drinker and are trying to change your ways! Start new habits in this new year.
