Smart Magazine | Stay cool with low-cal and adult only summer drinks

If I wanted to live in the desert, I would move to the desert. Instead, I get to live in Pennsylvania where it feels hotter than the desert because of our insane humidity.

And although I like the warm feeling of sun on my skin, I?m not one for humidity. I get that from my mother. But I also don?t like a/c. There is this love-hate battle of not wanting to be in the sweltering heat and not wanting to be in the freezing office or restaurant. What to do?

If it?s going to be this hot, I might as well be on a beach. Or drinking one of these.

Low calorie flavored waters

If you?re looking to save a few calories while still enjoying something a little more lively than plain water. There are plenty of ways to spice things up with fresh fruit or spritzes of juice.

Try mashing fresh leaves of mint and add lime and cucumber slices to a glass of water. Squeeze some of the juices from the lime and cucumber to flavor the water and stir.
