Hydration Station
Cold, winter weather can make it hard to stay hydrated, but these new super sips are sure to help you hit your New Year's goals. From electrolyte teas and sophisticated spring water to immune-boosting fruit juice, here are a few drinks to fill your cup and brighten up the dark days ahead.
Electrolyte Teas
Corpse Reviver
Part tea, part electrolyte drink, Corpse Reviver keeps you hydrated with no added sugar and just 10 calories. A multi-functional beverage featuring potassium, magnesium, L-theanine, and zinc, these carefully selected components work in harmony to provide a holistic replenishment experience, and as the name implies, may even bring you back from the dead. Female-founded, vegan, and gluten-free, choose from Prickly Pear, Botanical, and Guava Rose.
Still + Sparkling Waters
Saratoga® Spring Water
Water has never looked so swanky. But beyond the gloss and glam is something truly refreshing—a spring water sourced sustainably and with deep care. Saratoga’s signature cobalt blue glass bottle is 100% recyclable, and the production facility operates at an impressive 98% waste diversion rate, meaning 98% of all scrap materials are recycled rather than sent to landfills. Their team also includes Natural Resources Managers dedicated to overseeing land conservation efforts and to monitoring the long-term sustainability of their springs in the Adirondacks. All to say, you can sip your Dry January blues away in style at your next special occasion—choose from sparkling or still water in the sapphire bottle. Pinkies up!
