It gets HOT here in the Summer- we hit 100 in May, get to 115 by July & don’t cool off again until September. This means we have to take extra care to stay cool & try not to get dehydrated. We do a lot of indoor activities, and when we are outdoors, there’s always water involved: splash pads, pools and sprinklers become our best friends. &We drink water- LOTS of water.
But water gets really boring after awhile. It’s obviously good for you, but I just get sick of the same thing all the time. So, I use powdered drink mixes to sweeten it up a bit!

The new Lipton Tea & Honey drink mix is my new go-to. With only 5 calories per 8 oz serving, I can drink a lot of it without adding it to my waistline. It’s made with real tea leaves & real fruit and sweetened with honey, so I can feel good about enjoying it! It also comes in several flavors: Strawberry Acai, Blackberry Pomegranate, Lemon, Peach Apricot, Black Currant Raspberry, & Mango Pineapple. I’ve tried three of them and so far my favorite is the Blackberry Pomegranate, but I can’t wait to try them all!
Summer is a time of relaxing and having fun whenever possible. I like to keep a pool bag {think a beach bag, except we live in the desert} packed & ready to go at all times. In it, I keep:
A beach towel
Shane’s swimsuit
2-3 swim diapers
A regular diaper
Pool shoes {These especially come in handy at the splash pad!}
An extra t-shirt for Shane {since he tends to run in the water before I can actually get him changed}
Lots of sunscreen
Lip balm with SPF
A water bottle {or two}
A couple of Lipton Tea & Honey packets
I actually keep the Lipton Tea & Honey in my actual purse as well. It’s great for me to have on hand when I’m craving something sweet- rather than blow my diet & drink a slushie or other sugar-loaded beverage, I can just pour my mix into my water bottle, shake it up & voila! It even helps me quell cravings at the grocery store.
