Summertime Mocktails for Better Blood Sugar
If you missed yesterday's Office Hours on Blood Sugar Spikes: Why They Matter & How to Flatten the Curve, reach out here, and we'll give you some habit stacking hacks. A good one is adding a tablespoon of vinegar to sparkling water ( or using it in salad dressing) before a carbohydrate-rich meal. This helps reduce the post-meal blood sugar rise because acetic acid slows digestion and encourages muscles to take up glucose. To be served in the most elegant of glasses, relax and enjoy, as you would a glass of rosé by the pool. Want more? Let us know!
The Metabolic Mojito
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar (or white wine vinegar)
- Juice of ½ lime
- Sparkling water
- Fresh mint leaves
- Ice
- A few cucumber slices
Stir and sip 10–20 minutes before dinner.
It feels like a cocktail but turns an ordinary Tuesday night into a ritual while the cucumber and mint make it feel fresh and spa-like, with no added sugar.
Berry Basil Spritz
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
- Sparkling water
- 2–3 crushed raspberries or blackberries
- Fresh basil leaves
- Lemon wedge
- Ice
Lightly muddle the berries and basil. Top with sparkling water. You get beautiful flavor from just a couple of berries instead of lots of fruit juice. The berries contribute fiber and polyphenols.And
it feels elegant.
Citrus Ginger Fizz
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
- Sparkling water
- Fresh lemon
- Fresh lime
- Thin slices of fresh ginger
- Ice
- Rosemary sprig.
Ginger adds incredible flavor without sugar. It's refreshing, digestive, and sophisticated.
This has become one of my favorites before dinner.
