I'm feeling a bit behind this week and didn't plan out a "Simple Saturday Sipper" so I went to my pantry, fridge and freezer to whip up a healthy treat that has so many antioxidants I don't think you could possibly squeeze anymore in. With green tea, pure black cherry and pomegranate juices, and unsweetened frozen cherries, This Chilly & Cheery, Cherry Green Tea is a delicious, refreshing drink, that's not too sweet and is perfect for a pick-me-up, any time or season. Antioxidants prevent and repair damage done by free radicals and boost the immune system so you can feel good about indulging in this one. Watch out nasty cold and flu germs! ;-)
