Summer is in full swing, which means long hot days outside on the lake and behind the boat! : )
Staying hydrated is super important for optimal performance and overall good health. While drinking eight glasses a day is great, it can also get incredibly boring.
I am lucky that I never really liked pop / soda growing up, so I never had to stop a crazy diet coke addiction! lol. Sometimes drinking glasses and glasses of water can get old. I discovered this drink a few months ago when I was sick and tired of just drinking water. I generally keep my liquid calories to my morning juice, latte, and wine and this recipe caught my eye. Homemade ginger ale! I LOVE ginger, so learning how to make homemade ginger ale was a no-brainer, I had to try it. Turns out it's not only delicious, it's healthy too!
This is where you can find me over the weekend. : )
