The Tea on Winter Hydration
In the colder months, it’s easy to forget about drinking water... we’re not hot and sweaty like in summer, and let’s be honest, cold water isn’t all that appealing when you're feeling chilly on the inside.
But here’s the thing: hydration still matters - big time.
Even mild dehydration can impact your energy, focus, digestion, and mood. And because you don’t feel as thirsty in winter, it’s easier to slip into a habit of under-hydrating without even realising it. So what can you do?
Here are some hydrating winter alternatives to cold water that still help you stay topped up:
  • Warm water with lemon or lime
  • Ginger tea (bonus: great for digestion!)
  • Herbal teas (peppermint, chamomile, hibiscus, liquorice - hint: dried liquorice doesn't taste like aniseed at all, it's mildly sweet so great to add with other herbs)
  • Hot water with fresh herbs like mint or basil
  • Bone broth or veggie broth (hydrating and nourishing)
  • Warm infused waters with apple, cinnamon, or orange slices
Tip: Try keeping a warm drink beside you like you would in summer with your water bottle — just swap it for a thermos instead!
