BUBBLES Try a splash (1–2 oz) of 100% fruit juice in a cup of sparkling water. Remember to limit your juice intake to no more than 8 oz per day. You can also mash up fruit, such as raspberries or blueberries, and cover with sparkling water. You’ll have a colorful and fizzy treat that adults and kids will enjoy.
ICED TEA There’s nothing like a glass of homemade iced tea in the summertime. Brew green or white tea, and then chill. Instead of sugar, add a bit of fresh squeezed citrus for a twist.
COCONUT WATER Coconut water is a natural source of electrolytes and a great replenisher after a long day of sports and outdoor activities. Keep in mind that plain coconut water has 46 calories per cup.
Infused water
Make your own infused water by using a carafe like the one here. Fill the inner tube with sliced fruit and/ or herbs, then add water, and chill in the fridge. You’ll always have a wholesome, refreshing drink on hand.

ADVICE FROM OUR NUTRITIONISTS
What are some fun ways to stay hydrated?
Freeze a few bottles of water the night before you plan to spend a day outside
PLAN AHEAD
How can I get my family to eat well when everyone is off schedule?
• Cook in batches over the weekend or whenever
you have free time and pack everything into small containers or resealable bags for meals that are ready to go anytime throughout the week.
• For example, you can grill meat or cook
veggies and store in freezer bags. When you are short on time, pull out of the freezer and reheat as needed.
