There’s no better time than the summer to kick back with a cooling drink. Water is generally the obvious choice when it comes to which drink to go for, mainly because of how healthy it is. But what about when you’re sick of its blandness? Here are three great alternatives that’ll keep you refreshed on a cool summer’s day—with a healthy twist as well.

Iced Tea

Iced tea is one of the most popular drinks out there when it comes to keep yourself refreshed. However, people oftentimes view it as a guilty pleasure of sorts, due to its high sugar level. The good news is that you can easily make it yourself, and completely without sugar.

Lemonade

The same thing can be said about lemonade. People often enjoy this delicious lemon-based drink with sugar because it’s just so darn good. But you can easily prepare a healthier version of it, and feel equally as refreshed in the process.

Orange Juice

Finally, we have a little delicious drink known as orange juice. While there are countless popular versions that you can buy in the store such as Tropicana, a freshly squeezed version will not only keep your refreshed during the summer, but also minimize those added sugars.
