Many popular summer drinks can contain a lot of added sugar.

Making small swaps can help support healthy habits for the whole family.

Try replacing:
🥤 Soda → Water with fruit
🧃 Sugary juice drinks → Sparkling water with citrus
☕ Sweet tea → Unsweet tea with lemon

Even replacing one sugary drink each day can make a difference over time.

Healthy habits don’t have to be perfect — small steps matter!
