Do you want a little honesty?



Check out these drinks. They are super healthy and yummy too. Ever check out the ingredients of your kids drinks? Scary! My 2 love water and that is pretty much all they drink. But when I want something else this is what I will get.

Here is why I love them:

they are certified organic yumminess in the following flavors: Berry Berry Good Lemonade, Goodness Grapeness and Tropical Tango Punch
they have half the sugar of most kids drinks (and have NO high fructose corn syrup)
they come in pouches that are the perfect sizes for lunch boxes, and are made from recycled plastic they can be found at Whole Foods, Target, Sam's Club (Sam Club offers an exclusive 24 count variety pack!!), and Babies R Us here is one of the best things - Honest Teas doesn't just TALK about being an eco-friendly company, they are actually working hard to minimize their impact on the earth. Honest Teas and Honest Kids have partnered with TerraCycle to convert used drink pouches into school supplies .
They are also continually trying to work on their packaging in order to minimize waste. For example, that exclusive pack that you can get at Sam's Club has outer packaging that is reduced by 41 percent compared to other wholesale bundles, holds the pouches in ONE box (versus three separate ones for each flavor), eliminated plastic shrink wrap, and the box and plastic handles are made with post-consumer waste. Good stuff in the world of packaging!
Some of this info was on http://mamamanifesto.blogspot.com/ which is a cool blog.
