Refreshing Lime Soda
/If you are looking for an alternative to soda, give this bubbly beverage a try! I know people who have kicked their soda habit by replacing soda with this drink.
When I'm craving something refreshing or when I'm thirsty but not in the mood for plain water (especially at night), this is my go-to drink. Lime is an excellent source of Vitamin C, it's high in antioxidants and detoxifying to the body.
The recipe below is simply a guideline, so feel free to adjust the amount of sparkling water, lime and stevia depending on how sweet or sour you want it.

Stir and enjoy!
The other day, I found this fabulous post on The Yummy Life, that went into great detail about how to make quick and healthy fruit and herb infused water. The pictures and ease of recipes sold me so of course I had to try making some flavored water for myself. I made one with 1 lemon and 1 lime. It was tart, but refreshing and tasty!
