What is a good alternative to juice to serve to children?

For a lower-sugar drink option to serve to children, consider flavored waters or fruit juice-infused waters. Depending on the brand, many infused waters are low in sugar but still sweet enough for kids to enjoy. Look for beverages that are low in sugar and artificial ingredients and not caffeinated when choosing a drink for kids, such as coconut water, milks, water, and herbal teas.

Are antioxidant-infused drinks healthy?

Antioxidant-infused beverages have antioxidants added to them, usually in the form of teas or tea extracts. White, green, and black teas are rich in antioxidants so many drinks and waters that are marketed as infused with antioxidants are tea based. You’ll also find antioxidant-infused flavored drinks with added vitamins and minerals. These drinks are generally healthy if you can choose options that are not too high in sugar.

What can I drink to prevent dehydration beyond water?

Plain water is great to keep your body hydrated, but when you’re sweating a lot, you’re losing electrolytes that need to be replaced. Drinks that are infused with electrolytes, vitamins, and minerals can aid in preventing dehydration. Look for drinks that contain sodium, magnesium, potassium, and vitamins like vitamin C.
