I think I drink more than I eat.. which lead me to being curious about this odd topic 🙃 sooo, ladies what are some of your go to drinks while pregnant? Is Starbucks even an option at this point?
Pre-pregnancy I drank a lot of coke and coffee. I changed to decaf when I found out I was pregnant however drinking that lasted about a week and now I have a huge aversion to hot coffee. I still crave iced coffee but that’s hard to find decaf. I do also still have a coke most days. I am also addicted to ice cold lemon water lately... but I will squeeze an entire lemon into one cup.
Some drinks I have been craving but not too sure if they’re pregnancy safe is horchata (depends on the ingredients but some places look at you crazy when you ask) and also chai tea lattes. Does anyone have input on these specific drinks?
Re: Cheers! What’s to drink?
Mostly I drink la croix, water, or a sports drink like Gatorade or body armor. I'm overweight and don't want to gain too much, so I'm trying to stick to mostly water as to not add unnecessary and non-nutritious calories.
I'm having a hard time with hot drinks right now, so I've only been able to have tea or coffee a few times, and I usually can't finish a cup. But I'm big on water in general, and the occasional diet Dr. Pepper.
I have my cup of coffee in the morning, drink usually around 120 oz of water throughout the day, and usually have one flavored beverage with dinner. I'm really enjoying Costco lemonade, sparkling Italian blood orange juice, and Target brand peach-ginger sparkling water. Occassionally I'll have an N/A IPA from a local brewery that specializes in N/A beer, but that seems too indulgent for me most of the time so it's rare. I'm sure that will change when summer rolls around. I like the concept of mocktails, but I really don't feel like they're worth the effort.
It’s hard for me to drink straight water so I get store-brand sparkling water they sell in the little liter bottles. I’m a fan of strawberry watermelon, lime, black cherry and peach mango.

I like Bai cherry flavored drinks too.
Also, if you're looking for N/A IPAs or other beers, I recommend both Athletic Brewing Company and Brewdog. They both ship N/A beers (for free if you buy two 6- or 4-packs), and most of their stuff is really good.
finally turning a corner and can drink iced coffee 🤗
def will be checking out that N/A IPA others have spoken about
