When it comes to choosing the right healthy drinks for your taste and preferences, there are multiple factors to consider. Below, we’re breaking them down for you so you can find the right drink for you.
Nutritional notes
If you’re following a specific diet or looking for specific ingredients, this may help you decide which drink is best for you. Examples include products that are gluten-free, vegan, nut-free, low-sugar or no-sugar, and contain no artificial flavors or sweeteners. You’ll also need to consider what’s being added to the drink, such as magnesium, different botanicals, adaptogens, and electrolytes that best suits your lifestyle or health concerns.
Amelia T“Some adaptation tools, for example, may not be appropriate for pregnant women or those taking certain medications,” adds the New York-based registered dietitian and diabetes educator, who is also part of CNET’s Medical Review Board.
Price range
Some health drinks cost more than others, especially if you want to buy a can. Consider your budget, the number of people you are buying for, and how often you plan to purchase these drinks. It’s also helpful to think about how often you purchase coffee, tea, juice, or juice from a local establishment. Maybe purchasing these drinks on the spot will help you save.
Sizes
Are you planning to buy just one can of your favorite healthy drink when grocery shopping? Or would you like to purchase a pack of 6 or 12 for your whole family? Think about how many people you’re shopping for and how often you want to have a drink. Also, if you plan to keep it cold, consider how much space you have in your refrigerator.
Flavors
The best part of trying new drinks is finding your favorite flavor. If you’re trying to cut back on soda, you’ll probably want a drink that mimics the flavor of your favorite soda. Or, if you prefer bold, fruity flavors, consider drinks that deliver those flavors. The best part is that there really is a flavor for everyone.
Carbonation
Do you like soft drinks or do you prefer your drinks too? This will also help you narrow down your choice. If you like healthy sodas because you want to cut down on your soda intake, consider having a soft drink. However, if you don’t like the feel of carbonation, coconut water may be more your speed.
