Ninety percent of the time, my beverage choice is water . I consume it throughout the day, and am a BIG fan of water flavored with cucumbers, herbs, orange or lemon slices. Lately I’ve seen some amazing recipes using pureed fruit to flavor water or tea. Taking my cue from these recipes, I’ve come up with one of my own using pureed fruit…
strawberry kiwi fizz. This jazzed up water has 90 calories per serving. Although it does have some added sugar (8 grams per serving) , it’s a far cry from the 33 grams of sugar in most 12 ounce soft drinks and there is no caramel coloring or fructose corn syrup. Take note that the Strawberry Kiwi Fizz has added benefits vitamin C! Enjoy! Happy Mother’s Day!
