A Delicious Mocktail To Balance Your Blood Sugar & Help You Rehydrate

In the summer, booze seems to flow much more easily (wine in the park, margaritas by the pool, and happy hours galore!). With so many opportunities to soak up the sun with a drink in hand, it's normal to want to reach for a festive alcohol-free beverage, too.

Even if you aren't someone who avoids alcohol altogether, it can be nice to have the option for a bright and tasty beverage that feels a little bit fancier than water and actually fuels your body with an array of nutrients rather than acting as a depressant.

This recipe requires only three ingredients, but mbg's organic veggies+ is the most valuable of them all, offering a good source of fiber, as well as a mix of organic sea vegetables, broccoli, spinach, ginger, turmeric, and more. It's hard to come by a greens powder that won't dramatically alter the flavor of your beverage, but trust us: This one won't. And your mocktail will be miles healthier than any boozy beverage you could whip up (so long, margarita). 

Another highlight of organic veggies+ is the blood-sugar-balancing properties.* You'll also get some support for digestion, hormonal balance, and even nutrient absorption.* 

"The mocktail is a refreshing way to work in veggies and antioxidants and to support hydration on a hot summer day," registered dietitian Jess Cording, M.S., R.D., CDN, shares.*
