It’s the last month of summer, so I’m spending every moment I can outside enjoying it. And there are few things better than an afternoon spent outside with friends, soaking up the sunshine. Whether it be a boat ride on the Hudson River, a rooftop bar in NYC or a picnic in Central Park- I simply love being outside.
I recently shared with you all a few of the best wines for summer {focusing on rosé & sparkling}, but also wanted to share a few of the best non-alcoholic drinks for summer- because let’s be honest, sometimes water just isn’t festive enough.
- SOUND Tea :: I’m a huge iced tea fan, but these SOUND Tea drinks really kick it up a notch. This is an iced tea meets sparkling water with a twist. They have both caffeinated and caffeine free flavors. And they are all organic, unsweet and have no preservatives. Win-win-win! My personal favorites are the Rose Tea, Green Tea & Chamomile Tea.
- Coconut Water :: My love affair with coconut water really began when I was living in Thailand a few years ago. It is high in electrolytes and really hydrating.
- Spindrift :: Most sparkling waters have at least one fake ingredient in them. But not these. I love Spindrift because they are flavored with 100% real juice {and some of the flavors have pulp- which I adore}. My personal favorites are the grapefruit, lemon & cucumber.
What are some of your go-to summer drinks?
One of my favorites is ice tea with a splash or two of fresh squeezed grapefruit juice !!
I love iced tea and coconut water! Both are so tasty and refreshing! I can’t believe summer is almost over. We have to make the most of what is left!
I love the lemonade drinks here! They are the best for summer because they are super refreshing!
I love tea and baby coconut water, so refreshing :) Try Hibiscus tea, so good :)
I am a huge fan of coconut water! I just wish it wasn’t so expensive. I also have been a little hooked on sparkling water lately :)
