    Cold and flu season always has people trying to boost their immune systems. Though technically speaking, you can't really 'boost' your immune system. You can support it, though! How? By nourishing yourself with a balanced diet that includes plenty of fruit, veggies and protein, hydrating with lots of fluids, and keeping your gut healthy with probiotic-rich foods.

    Why Mocktails?

    It's becoming more common for people to turn to nonalcoholic beverages that are still fun and tasty. Plus, if you're fighting a cold, you probably don't want to drink alcohol anyway. Mocktails are great for staying hydrated while also enjoying a delicious drink!
