With summer time just around the corner, it means we only have 60 days left to attempt to zip up that cute summer mini dress or squeeze into the always-dreaded swimsuit! But eating healthy doesn't necessarily mean we have to give our my favorite things to eat AND drink.
What a lot of people don't think about is the amount of calories consumed with just one cocktail! However, with the Core Four TEN beverage line from Dr. Pepper Snapple Group, you can enjoy all the fun and flavor of Sunkist, A&W Rootbeer, Canada Dry Ginger Ale and 7UP for only TEN calories!
So I've concocted four fantastic recipes that taste even better than your old standby summer cocktails, but without the empty calories! I love being able to enjoy anytime of the week, at get togethers and even playdates with other moms and they think I've added something to our drinks, but in fact, I've taken out most calories by using the Core Four TEN products I found at Walmart. And they taste delicious enough you may choose these as your go-to summer sippers! I mean nothing says summer like a rootbeer float...and with this recipe I've cut half the calories, 25 percent of the fat and none of the flavor!
