Is everyone drinking their water today? Confession time…I don’t like plain drinking water. I know all the reasons why I should drink it; I just don’t enjoy drinks without flavor.
It’s important not to drink your calories in the form of sugar-laden drinks and sodas. And artificially sweetened diet soda increases your risk for diabetes, decreases bone density, and is bad for your kidneys.
Here’s how I get my 64+ ounces in every day while enjoying immune-boosting goodness in a quick and economical manner. Even the kids love the fruity flavor!

🍎🍐🍑🍒🍓 Fabulous Fruity Sip 🍎🍐🍑🍒🍓
2 qt pitcher - Glass is best!!
2 Fruit-Flavored Celestial Seasonings Tea Bags (check the ingredients – Lipton and Bigleow sometimes slip maltodextrin in their teas. That’s a blood sugar badie!) I love peach, apple, raspberry. I can sometimes find Watermelon Lime and Sangria – super yummy!!
2 Tablespoons Raw Apple Cider Vinegar with “the mother” **
¼ teaspoon Pure Stevia (not all stevia is equal. It shouldn’t taste bitter. You might need to play with amounts to suit your taste.)

Combine everything in the pitcher and fill with water. Stick it in the fridge. Wait 20-30 minutes and enjoy over ice! I just leave the tea bags in the pitcher.
**Raw Apple Cider Vinegar is anti-fungal, anti-bacterial, and wonderful for the immune system. It lowers blood sugar, fights diabetes, and encourages weight loss. I drink a couple quarts of this tea every day, and in 5 years have only had 2-3 colds. For my big family, we usually 4-5 pitchers of different flavors in our refrigerator at a time.
