Refreshing Summer Drinks: What to Order at Our Juice Bar

Summer in Texas is no joke. These scorching heat waves can leave you feeling tired, cranky, and thirsty. According to the latest news reports, record high temperatures have been forecasted for portions of Arizona, New Mexico, and Texas this year.

Long story short? Staying cool and hydrated is key to having a refreshing and healthy summer. Our Texas juice bar is here with a variety of cold-pressed juices to beat the heat. Whether you’re braving the sun or just trying to stay in on a blazing afternoon, our juices are packed with the perfect blend of fruits, veggies, and superfoods to quench your thirst.

The Importance of Staying Hydrated this Summer

Dehydration is a serious condition that is especially dangerous for young children and older adults. Feeling thirsty is rarely a good indicator of your actual hydration status as it often occurs once dehydration is actually in effect.

Symptoms of dehydration include:

• Dry mouth and tongue
• Sunken eyes, cheeks
• Listlessness or irritability
• Extreme thirst
• Less frequent urination
• Dark-colored urine
• Fatigue
• Dizziness
• Confusion

As of March 2024, multiple studies reported that 75% of adults in the United States are chronically dehydrated, drinking only 2.5 cups of water per day on average. This is well below the U.S. National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine’s recommended intake of 11.5 to 15.5 cups of water per day.

Staying hydrated in the sweltering summer heat can be a real challenge, but it’s important to prioritize water and electrolyte intake to maintain your body’s full health.

Even if you don’t experience extreme dehydration, the bottom line is it can zap your energy, dull your skin, and even impact your overall health. Therefore, drinking water, having electrolytes, and consuming nutritious and hydrating foods are all essential habits this summer.

How to Enjoy Your Juices

Cold-pressed juices are not only refreshing but also packed with water, essential vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants that help you stay hydrated and healthy all summer long.

To get the most out of your juices, try enjoying them first thing in the morning to kickstart your day, post-workout to replenish lost fluids, or as a refreshing afternoon pick-me-up when the sun is at its peak.

For a complete, nutritious experience, pair your juice with light summer meals or nutrient-dense snacks like a fresh salad, acai bowl, or avocado toast.

Exploring Our Cold-Pressed Juice Menu

The ingredients in our juices are key to unlocking specific benefits you may need. From improved gut health to optimal hydration, the variety of cold-pressed juices you stock up on can help you stay healthy and happy this summer.

Here’s a look at what to order at our Texas juice bar:

Beet and carrot are loaded with antioxidants that give your skin a healthy glow, while ginger and lemon work together to soothe digestion and supercharge your immune system. Then, there’s the dynamic duo of orange and pineapple, bursting with vitamin C to keep your immune defenses strong.

The Fuerte juice is perfect as an all-around wellness enhancer to help you recover or add an energizing boost to your day.

LFG

We don’t have to decode “LFG” for you, do we? This delicious juice is a mix of watermelon, pineapple, apple, lemon, lime, and beet, making it your perfect companion for hot days.

Watermelon is the star here, delivering ultra-hydration and a cooling effect for when the temperature soars. Beet steps in to boost blood flow and stamina, keeping you energized and ready for anything. Meanwhile, lemon and lime add a zesty kick that’s both detoxifying and refreshing.

With LFG, you’ll stay cool, hydrated, and ready to tackle whatever summer throws your way. We recommend this cold-pressed juice for your post-workout routine or on days when you might have to be out and about in the sun for hours at a time.

GREENS

You can’t call yourself a juice bar without the ultimate green juice. Our Greens cold-pressed juice is the most delicious solution to keep you cool and energized this summer! Packed with cucumber, spinach, celery, kale, and lemon, this juice is a refreshing burst of goodness.

Cucumber’s high water content ensures you stay hydrated, while spinach and kale deliver a powerful punch of nutrients to support your energy levels and overall health. Celery helps reduce inflammation and aids digestion, making every sip of Greens not just refreshing but also incredibly nourishing.

If you’re in need of hydration with a little gut health lift, Greens is the juice for you.

BOMBA

Brace yourself for Bomba, the juice with a fiery twist that’s sure to spice up your summer. This bold blend of pineapple, ghost pepper, turmeric, orange, lemon, and apple is as powerful as it sounds.

Ghost pepper brings the heat, boosting your metabolism and adding a spicy kick you can’t resist. Turmeric steps in with its anti-inflammatory and immune-boosting properties, keeping you feeling your best. Lastly, orange and lemon packed with vitamin C.
