Ingredients
🥥 coconut smoothie

These are both from Trader Joe’s, but you could also use coconut water + your favorite sparkling water.

Thank me later, because plain water is not your on Thank me later, because plain water is not your only option in pregnancy. 💛

If water is sounding boring, hard to tolerate, or just not cutting it right now, here are 10 pregnancy-friendly drink ideas to mix it up:

1️⃣ mineral water with lemon or lime
2️⃣ coconut water (add a splash of OJ for more flavor) 
3️⃣ water with an electrolyte packet (comment EP3 for options!)
4️⃣ milk
5️⃣ warm water with lemon and ginger
6️⃣ a Greek yogurt or protein smoothie
7️⃣ pregnancy-safe herbal iced tea (comment TEA2 for my current favorite!)
8️⃣ a simple 3-ingredient mocktail: pomegranate juice + sparkling water + fresh mint
9️⃣ bone broth
🔟 fruit- or herb-infused water (like mint, cucumber, and lemon)

Hydration often gets easier when it actually sounds good. And drinks can do more than just help with fluids. They can also be a simple way to support protein, minerals, and electrolytes too 🙌🏼
