Back-to-School Beverages: Swap Sodas with Cascade Ice!

by Cascade Ice on August 1, 2013

Back-to-school season is a great time to change up your kids’ eating habits. Yes, it’s easy to serve them soda or a glass of lemonade, but do you know that those beverages can contain upwards of 38 grams of sugar?

Try something different. Cascade Ice is a zero-calorie, sparkling flavored water that is free of unhealthy “extras” like sugar, sodium, caffeine and gluten. The line comes in 21 delicious and unique flavors including Orange Mango, Coconut, Strawberry Lemonade and Pomegranate Berry!

Zero calorie drinks

Kids love the great taste of Cascade Ice, and parents are thrilled to have a healthier option than sugary juices and sodas to add to lunches or snacks. While great straight out of the bottle, you can also have fun mixing it up with other ingredients. Below are a few fun recipes that families everywhere will enjoy making and tasting this back-to-school season!
