🍃🍑 Teas for Thirsty Kids — and Adults 🥰
Posted by Dani Noto on
How many times have we heard, "Mom, I'm thirsty?"
Or, "Mom, is there anything good to drink?"
I know when my kids were home, it felt like a constant refrain, especially in the summer. I'm pretty sure I even heard it in my sleep, ☺️. Now I only hear my husband asking, "Honey, what do we have cold to drink?"
What should we serve these thirsty little kids? Sugary sodas and caffeinated beverages are not ideal if we want them to stay calm or go to bed at a reasonable hour.
Kid-Tested and Mom-Approved
Delicious and naturally sweet, caffeine-free fruit teas are the perfect solution for thirsty kids.
They taste great and can quench even the most intense thirst without any caffeine or added sugar.
Here are six teas that have been kid-tested, received rave reviews, and are mom-approved.
- Grandma's Garden Fruit Tea is an all-berry fruit tea with strawberry, raspberry, and blackberries leading the way.
- Strawberry Cream Fruit Tea is a delicious strawberry tea with large pieces of dehydrated strawberries to entice the taste buds.
- Mango & Friends Fruit Tea is a tropical delight - juicy and sweet with an exotic twist.
- Sunny Lemonade tastes just like the freshly squeezed lemonade from our childhoods.
- Orange Creamsicle Rooibos tastes just like an orange creamsicle from the ice cream truck.
- Honeybush Peach offers up the fresh taste of juicy peaches.
These fruit teas are best brewed hot and strong.
Allow them to cool, then pour generous glassfuls over ice to quench the thirst of those little ones. Adults also rave about these teas, including my husband!
Use Tea to Make Delicious Popsicles
You can also use these teas to make delicious popsicles, and it's really simple to do.
Just brew the tea, add a sweetener if you like, then pour the tea into popsicle molds and freeze.
Once they are frozen, you'll have a delightful sweet treat.
These popsicles make for a great afternoon snack or an after-dinner dessert, and if you skip the sweetener, they're even guilt-free for those of us watching our waistlines.
