Imagine my surprise to discover a drink my kids love that's all natural and contains less sugar than those we-already-added-water-to-your-juice drinks.
It's called Little Me Tea, and it's a mixture of caffeine-free tea, herbs, and organic fruit and vegetable juices created by a mom and dad for their daughter, Julia. Each serving has 30 calories and only 7 grams of sugar (from the fruit) with oodles of antioxidants and absolutely no extra sugar or artificial flavors or colors.
Still, around our house, in the spirit of my youth, it's called Orange Drink and Purple Drink.
Orange Drink is actually Julia's Tropical Tea, a combination of white and rooibos teas, hibiscus, chamomile, and organic juices from sweet potato and carrot to apple and mango. Purple Drink is Zane's Grape Tea, which includes the same tea, herb, and juice base mixed with organic red grapes. To me, they tasted like extremely watered down Kool-Aid. But to my kids? Let's just say they drank both boxes in two days and are still begging for more. Best of all, even after gulping down all those servings, they weren't a bit unruly.
Take that, Purple Drink!~Delilah
