So far this summer we've had some super hot and humid days. While water is the best thing for you, sometimes it can get really boring. The key to getting your water in is being creative. I've tried to come up with a few ways to increase my water consumption, all the while adding flavour and staying healthy.
1. Biosteel Pops
If you haven't tried Biosteel, it is basically a powdered sports drink, similar to Gatorade. The advantages is that it has amino acids, electrolytes, B vitamins, and is diabetic and vegan friendly. Its a great during or post-workout beverage if you're exerting yourself or if it is very hot outside. For the pops, simply mix enough of the powder and water to make 2 servings (2 scoops, plus 2 cups water) and pour into Popsicle moulds and freeze.
2. Sparkling Water with Fruit
I love my Soda Stream. It makes fresh carbonated water within seconds. While the flavour can get plain, the combination of fruits to add to it are endless. My favourite combinations right now are water melon and fresh leaves, and lime slices and mint - tastes like a Moijito, minus the vodka!
