We've been enjoying the warmer weather for a couple of months now, but if you've also been enjoying your patio drinks more than your daily water intake, we need to chat. For optimal health and to balance your wellness and beautifying routine, you need to make sure you stay hydrated (fact: the more hydrated your body is, the better your skin will look for longer). Here are four ways to ensure your hydrated all season long.
Ditch the sugary drinks
We all love our morning fix of coffee (and we won’t be giving it up anytime soon), but after you’ve had your morning java, leave it at that. Instead of reaching for another cup of coffee or a sweet drink in the afternoon to perk you up, vary your water intake by mixing it up with refreshing herbal teas that can be drank both hot or iced. When choosing herbal teas be sure to choose caffeine-free blends, as caffeine dehydrates the body. We can’t get enough of Sahara Tea’s The Mango Tango ($15), a delicious blend of hibiscus, orange peel and mango that is even better iced as it is hot (great in the summer). But we’re also equally thirsty for David’s Tea Luscious Watermelon ($9), an infusion of honeydew, strawberry leaves, apple and chunks of summer’s iconic watermelon.
