If you’re even thinking about choosing a healthy beverage in place of sodas at a restaurant, you’re on the right track!

Water is generally considered the healthiest option, but our list of alternative drinks add some flavor to the health in every sip. Here is a list of 3 alternatives to a healthy glass of water—a couple of other options for when the waiter asks you what to drink!

Pomegranate Juice

 

You’d be hard-pressed to find a juice healthier than pomegranate juice. It’s been known to help you combat inflammation and a whole range of diseases, even cancer. Just make sure you don’t end up drinking juice with too much sugar in it.

Beet Juice

 

A slightly less popular option, maybe. But an option that reduces blood pressure, boost blood flow and circulation to the brain (slowing the onset of dementia), keeps your liver healthy, and increases your stamina.

Hot Chocolate

 

This isn’t the top of the ‘generally healthy’ list, but here’s a secret: this hot, cocoa-based drink can help with the pain of menstrual cramps. How? Because of its high magnesium content.

There you go! The next time the waiter asks you what you want a drink, your healthy options aren’t limited to “One tall glass of water, please!”
