Having to organize a party signifies having to plan the menu and drinks. If you are a health-conscious person, you would certainly want to offer guests a number of healthy options both in terms of food and drinks.

Healthy menu and great party can go hand in hand, as long as you know how to offer people diversity and intriguing options to choose among.

This article will give you ideas about five healthy drinks that can be served during parties and special occasions. Preparing them by yourself or by purchasing organic drinks containing no preservatives will make your beverage selection even more impressive.

Fruit Juices and Fruit Cocktails
Fresh fruit juices are certainly the number one option for everyone who loves healthy and delicious drinks.

The best aspect of serving fresh fruit juices is the wide medley of tastes you can offer. Each fruit has its specific taste and is certain to appeal to someone attending your party. Having the right selection of fresh juices will turn your party into a success.

Apart from fresh juices, you can serve non-alcoholic fruit cocktails. These are amazing for summertime parties and parties held at the beach. Perform a simple web search. You will discover dozens of opportunities.

If you feel like it, you can come up with your own fruit cocktails. It is all about discovering good mixes and serving the drinks well-chilled and beautifully decorated.

Lemonade
Everybody loves lemonade. It is refreshing, it is tasty and it can be made effortlessly at home.

For a liter of good lemonade, you will need four lemons and eight tablespoons of sugar (or any alternative sweetener that you prefer).

Take your container and pour some cold water in. Add the sugar and stir until all of it gets dissolved. Squeeze the juice of the four lemons and add it to the cold water and the sugar. Add more water to get a liter of lemonade.

Serve your lemonade well-chilled. This unpretentious drink is very healthy, since lemons are rich in vitamin C.

Iced Tea
Homemade iced tea is another amazing healthy option.

Select your favorite type of tea. Make sure that you use enough of it, since the taste will change once the drink gets cooled. Prepare the tea the way you usually do. In case you want to offer guests diversity, you can pick several tea flavors.

Add sugar, honey or another type of sweetener that you prefer. Do that while the drink is still hot to get the sugar dissolved easily.

Let the tea cool down. Add ice to it and decorate any way you find appropriate – use lemon or lime slices, nicely shaped ice cubes or anything else that will look good with other decorations. Fresh tea is certainly connected to a number of health benefits.

Homemade Punch
Homemade punch can be healthy, as well. It contains natural ingredients and it contains no artificial colorants or preservatives.

Make any type of punch that you like. Whether it is alcohol free or containing some type of alcohol is entirely up to you. Try to pick organic ingredients when preparing your punch.

Red Wine
Red wine can be very beneficial if consumed with moderation. You can add it confidently to your selection of healthy party beverages.

This wonderful drink has been known for centuries. Red wine decreases the level of bad cholesterol, counteracts infections, stimulates metabolism and helps the body overcome anemia.

Pick quality wines. After all, the taste is just as important as the health benefits associated to the beverages that you plan to serve.

So whether you are planning a birthday party, a cookout, a baby shower, or just want a nice cool drink to enjoy at home, remember these healthy drink ideas.
