Here is a quick post to tell you about two awesome drinks I made that are under 100 calories each--and you can share them with the kids! (If you want...)
*Coconut Fizzy*
Ice Cubes (I fill the glass)
Coconut La Croix Seltzer
Pineapple Juice
Lime
1 tsp. coconut milk or cream per glass (you can also use whipped cream)
Fill glass 2/3 of the way with seltzer. (If you have never had La Croix Coconut Seltzer I HIGHLY recommend it. It is somehow creamy all on it's own with NO sugar, NO color, and NO calories. Delicious.) Add about 1/4 cup pineapple juice (or to taste). Add about 1 tsp. coconut milk or cream and stir well. Squeeze a bit of lime on top and add ice. This drink rivals any pina colada I've ever had. Yummmm. (You can also add a scoop of whipped cream on top but that puts it over 100 calories--might be worth it.)
*Creamsicle*
Ice Cubes
Vanilla Polar Seltzer (another somehow creamy calorie free drink)
Orange Juice
Vanilla almond milk or soy milk OR 1 tsp. coconut milk
Fill glass 1/2 with vanilla seltzer. Fill other half with orange juice. Add the vanilla almond milk, soy milk, or coconut milk and stir well. Light, refreshing, and delicious.
Both of these drinks are so much better for you than soda. Coconut cream has EFAs and juices are filled with vitamin C.
BTW--2 TBSP of whipped cream only has 16 calories. (You can also make divine whipped "cream" by taking some of the solids off of the top of the coconut cream, adding a bit of sugar and whipping the same way as cream. Yum again. And it's vegan.)
Here are the seltzers:
ENJOY!!
