Wowzers, check out these snazzy drinks for back to school lunches! They’re fun, they’re convenient, and they’re sure to make your kiddos the envy of all their friends. Let’s dive right in, shall we?
First up: the classic juice box
Ah, the trusty juice box. It’s been a staple in kids’ lunches for decades, and for good reason. They’re small, they’re easy to pack, and they come in a variety of flavors. Plus, there’s just something satisfying about poking that little straw through the foil and taking that first sip. It’s like a mini victory every time.
Next, we’ve got some flavored water
If you want to mix things up a bit, flavored water is a great option. It’s still hydrating, but with a little twist of flavor. And let’s be real, sometimes plain water just isn’t cutting it. Just make sure you’re opting for ones without added sugar or artificial sweeteners. We want our little ones to stay healthy and energized, not bouncing off the walls.
Third on the list, we have some fancy shmancy iced tea
Ooh la la, look at us getting all fancy with our iced tea. But seriously, how cute are these little bottles? And with flavors like peach and raspberry, it’s sure to be a hit with the kiddos. Plus, if you’re feeling really adventurous, you can even brew your own tea and add your own flavors. Just be sure to let it cool down before packing it up for lunch.
Next up, we’ve got some chocolate milk
Okay, hear us out on this one. We know chocolate milk might not seem like the healthiest option, but sometimes you just need a little something sweet. Plus, studies have shown that chocolate milk can help with recovery after exercise (which let’s be honest, recess can get pretty intense). Just make sure you’re choosing a brand with lower sugar content and that it’s in a spill-proof container. We don’t want any chocolate milk messes all over the classroom.
Finally, we’ve got some coconut water for the adventurous ones
For those of you who like to live on the wild side, we present to you: coconut water. It’s hydrating, it’s refreshing, and it’s packed with electrolytes. Plus, it’ll make your little ones feel like they’re on a tropical vacation (even if they’re just in the school cafeteria). Just make sure they like the taste before packing it up in their lunchbox. It’s definitely not for everyone.
So there you have it, folks. Some fun and convenient drinks to pack in your kids’ lunches. Just make sure to pack them in a spill-proof container and remind your little ones to stay hydrated throughout the day. Happy lunch packing!
