BF Hydration: The Green Apple


But first...have you checked the Bariatric Foodie Pledge Halftime Report? If you THINK you are in the running for the grand prize, you want to check it to make sure you're on MY list. Go do it!

This drink does not have protein. But then, all our drinks don't have to! In the cold weather especially, a good low-cal drink that helps you get that water in is worth it's weight in GOLD!

So here's a warm, comforting drink I came up with because I got bored with what I was drinking before. Give it a try, if you've got the ingredients.

Nik's Green Apple Hot Drink

Ingredients:
  • 10-12 oz boiling water (depending on your cup size)
  • 1 packet of green tea of your choice
  • 1 packet sugar-free apple cider mix
  • Optional: no-calorie sweetener (I didn't use any)
Directions:

Steep tea bag in boiling water for a minute or two, then remove.

Add cider mix then stir thoroughly and enjoy!

I find the tea calms down the tartness and sweetness of the cider mix. It's a nice little drink to have in your back pocket when you need it, y'know?

What do you drink when the weather turns cold?
