There is nothing better than cooling down with a refreshing iced tea on a long, hot summer’s day. For many of us, drinking plain old water all the time can be pretty boring. We all know that good health requires good hydration- especially in Summer- but water alone doesn’t titillate the taste buds too much does it?

Many people turn to drinks that are loaded with sugar- such as soda, juices and energy drinks. I am offering a much healthier solution that can be really delicious and it is Byron Bay Tea Company Iced teas. These are the ones that are made from scratch at ho me- not those that are bottled up and full of sugar. Adding all-natural ingredients such as fruits and herbs to water can infuse water with flavour and a bit of nutritional oomph, turning ho-hum H20 into a truly tasty and healthy beverage.

Health Benefits of Iced Teas-:

Increased water intake and hydration-
Good hydration is essential for health and deliciously healthy Iced Teas and sipping on iced teas is one way that you can achieve this. Hydrations helps in maintaining proper organ function; preventing constipation, muscle spasms and headaches; flushing toxins out of the body; keeping energy up, and keeping food cravings at bay. You cannot overestimate the importance of water to your health, given that the human body is more than 50% water! Whilst water needs can vary from person to person depending on their size, amount of exercise and other factors- a good guideline is about 2 litres or enough to keep the urine clear.
