Tea-licious

If you're looking for an alternative to those sugary pops in the soda machine, consider stashing instant drink mix in your desk drawer for the next time you crave a midafternoon thirst quencher. There are plenty of varieties that are sugar-free and some even offer a shot of valuable vitamins. Crystal Light's On The Go White Tea packets can be added to a plain old bottle of water to provide vitamins A, C and E and 55 mg of white-tea antioxidants, all while only adding 5 measly calories. According to nutritionist Amy Hendel, white tea has more antioxidants, which fight heart disease and cancer, than green or black tea and "white white tea which is the most expensive tea because you're actually capturing the bud before it even turns green," Hendel says. At $3.29 for a 10-count package, we may just shelve the sodas for good.
