​We often think about the food we eat–how it is made, where it comes from and how it both nourishes us and contributes to a healthy lifestyle. However, many of us forget that what we’re drinking (whether to hydrate or celebrate) has a major impact on our health and mood.

From better-for-you booze, bubbly beverages and detox must-haves, we’ve detailed our favorite sips to keep you feeling refreshed, and possibly buzzed, during the hot and sunny Texas summer. Cheers to working hard and playing harder!

BETTER-FOR-YOU BOOZE

Frankly Organic Vodka
Feel less guilty drinking a refreshing cocktail this Summer season thanks to Frankly Organic Vodka, Austin’s first organic vodka. Frankly values transparency and lists all ingredients on the label to ensure that you’re aware of what you are drinking. Available in original and four unique flavors, all are perfect for your next garden or pool party.

Playa Real Tequila
If there’s one thing we know about Texans, it’s that they love their tequila! This summer we’re shaking things up with Playa Real Premium Tequila, an Austin-based tequila brand with a lineup of three 100% blue agave, 80-proof, triple-distilled tequilas. One of the first flavored tequilas on the market, the fruit-infused Pineapple flavor is our go-to!

JUST A SPLASH

Richard’s Rainwater
Take your summer soiree sips to the next level by adding Richard’s Rainwater’s sparkling water. The first FDA approved bottled rainwater company based in Dripping Springs is free from pollutants, salts, minerals, and other natural and man-made contaminants. Available in both still and sparkling, pick up your own glass bottle at your local Thom’s Market or Royal Blue Grocery.

Greenbelt Kombucha
Say bye to bottles and crack open an ice cold Greenbelt Kombucha! Austin’s newest craft, canned gourmet kombucha company is sustainably brewed and at a price that fits any budget. Pick up four unique flavors at H-E-B and enjoy the benefits of the probiotic beverage while basking in the summer heat or mixed in to create a better-for-you cocktail.

DETOX, PLEASE! 

Juice Society
Juice Society is a refreshing way to cleanse and treat your body to a much needed boost. Detox with the Activated Lemonade, made with activated coconut shell charcoal, lemon and agave. Or hydrate & fight inflammation with their Thirst-Aide drink that includes turmeric, lemon, honey and ashwagandha.

Chlorophyll Water
Hydration, hydration, hydration! This summer we’re quenching our thirst with Chlorophyll Water, also known as “Nature’s Green Magic.” Filled with antioxidants, essential vitamins and powerful nutrients, the elevated H2O helps the body detox while strengthening the immune system, boosting energy and increasing well-being almost instantly, and naturally.
