Healthy Holiday Drink Recipes
Cheers for the holiday—Check out these great recipes.
Watch what you drink to avoid holiday weight gain. Drinks like eggnog and hot chocolate are high in fat and sugar. Plus, the alcohol in some of these drinks lowers your blood sugar, which sends a hunger signal to your brain.
You can make healthier versions of these traditional drinks using skim milk and a sugar substitute, and for cocoa, use dark chocolate. Limit alcohol to no more than two 4-ounce glasses of wine daily for men and no more than one for women. Don’t overdo it—a small serving of a rich holiday food or drink can satisfy your taste buds without wrecking your diet.
