February marks National Heart Month and what better way to celebrate by raising a glass of Cascade Ice! You can be heart smart year-round with Cascade Ice, but in honor of this month, try mixing up one of these heart-friendly concoctions that you can enjoy any time of day!
Pomegranate Punch
Pomegranates are full of antioxidants including punicalagins, an antioxidant that is found to protect the heart.
In a tall glass, pour in one cup of Zero-Calorie Pomegranate Berry over ice. Squeeze in the juice of one lemon and sprinkle in fresh pomegranate seeds. Mix and enjoy!
Blueberry-Watermelon Spritzer
Blueberries are an excellent source of heart-healthy fiber!
In a glass, add 1/4 cup fresh blueberries. Gently crush using a spoon. Add one cup of chilled Zero-Calorie Blueberry Watermelon Cascade Ice and stir. Garnish with a small wedge of watermelon and drink away!
Pink Grapefruit Fizz
Grapefruit is not only high in fiber and low in calories; it also contains bioflavonoid, a chemical that protects against heart disease.
In a tall glass, pour one cup of Zero-Calorie Pink Grapefruit Cascade Ice over ice. Sprinkle in fresh pomegranate seeds and stir. Add a splash of lemon or lime juice to give your drink an extra kick of flavor!
