Say no to jitters
If you’re looking for an energy boost, you might be tempted to reach for a natural drink made from botanical sources like guarana, yerba mate, kola nut, or green tea. But you could end up with a case of the jitters too. That’s because these ingredients naturally contain caffeine. Challenge yourself today to find natural alternatives to the beverages you normally consume that contain caffeine. Here’s a refreshing idea for starters: try making a pitcher of caffeine-free herbal tea and “spiking” it with a splash of fruit juice and sparkling water.

I have actually started a “no coffee” month. I am trying to drink more green tea but that also has caffeine too. I am surprised at how challenging this is and how much coffee I actually drink per day. I wasn’t an addict but there were times when I felt like I needed the coffee to get through the day….I will stick with the green tea and then ween myself off of that to something with no caffeine.
