Unsweetened Iced Tea and Coffee

Calorie-free and full of antioxidants, these refreshingly cool beverages fill you up and help flush out extra sodium. Instead of sugary lemonade, pour a glass of unsweetened iced green tea to cool off on a hot summer day. Green tea contains EGCG, an antioxidant with anti-inflammatory and therapeutic properties, making it a perfect drink to sip on while relaxing by the pool. You can add a shot of natural sweetness to cold tea by slicing fresh fruit and refrigerating overnight. If you’re sipping iced coffee and like it “lightened,” be sure to stick with skim or 1 percent low-fat cow’s milk, soy milk, or unsweetened almond milk.
