As someone who doesn’t really drink soda but loves carbonated beverages, I am a big fan of sparkling water, kombucha and probiotic drinks. The fizz in these drinks is a wonderful change of pace from regular water and knowing that drinking a probiotic beverage is good for my digestive health makes me feel good about sipping on a bottle of something sparkly and slightly tangy.
I don’t know about you but whenever I hear the word “probiotic” I immediately think of yogurt. And then I picture Erin Andrews talking about probiotic supplements in her commercial that seems to be on constant loop.
There’s no denying that probiotics are good for you. They are good bacteria known to support digestive health but according to the Journal of the American Medical Association, studies show that probiotics could be beneficial in helping to fight infection and boost our immune systems. (Right now when everyone around me seems to be getting sick, that’s something I can get behind.)
Probiotics work by adding good bacteria back into your stomach. They aid in nutrient absorption and can be found in kefir and yogurt or fermented vegetables like sauerkraut… Or in tasty drinks like KeVita’s Sparking Probiotic Drinks!
If you made a resolution to give up soda in 2016 and find yourself struggling a bit, I highly recommend swapping in a bottle of kombucha or a sparkling probiotic beverage. You’ll get the carbonation you crave without all the sugar and may even find yourself feeling more energetic. I truly prefer these drinks over soda and love the way they make me feel.
(Given my love for anything coconut, the Strawberry Acai Coconut is my favorite flavor followed by the Pineapple Coconut. They’re both incredibly refreshing and have a tropical taste to them. Ryan’s favorite is the Mojito Lime Mint Coconut.)
KeVita Sparkling Probiotic Drinks contain beneficial live probiotics (4 billion CFUs) and are handcrafted with organic fruit and whole plant extracts. They’re certified organic, project verified non-GMO, vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free and kosher. I find myself reaching for one in the late afternoon when I want a slightly sweet little pick-me-up. These drinks feel like a special treat and I love knowing that I’m reaching for something that’s benefitting my body in a positive way.
(Also, just a little side note for my fellow nursing mothers: KeVita maintains that while there is nothing inherently harmful in their drinks for nursing mothers, you should obviously consult with your doctor or alternative health care provider if you have concerns. My doctor gave these drinks the a-okay for me personally but definitely reach out to your doctor with your questions!)

Hi! in regards to flying with Chase .. confidence is key. You can do it. The worst that can happen is he cries a lot on the flight and in the moment it will be hard but it will be over soon and you will likely never see any of those people again. Pack as compactly as you can. One carry-on with everything you need for him. Forget magazines, books, entertainment for you. On the off chance you get a moment, read the airline magazine. If he is still enjoying being in an ergo type carrier bring that. If not, an umbrella stroller is great. Just be sure to have a way to have your hands free as you go through security and get settled on the plane. If you are still nursing, that will make things a lot easier. Pop him on as you take off and land for his ears. And if he gets fussy you can let him nurse as well.
I am traveling for my second time solo with my daughter (currently 11 months) in March and won’t be nursing then so that will throw a new challenge into the mix but we will figure it out. Lots of walking the aisle. Hopefully you sit next to someone sweet who will hold him if you have to go to the bathroom.
Best of luck! You will do great!
I could buy these at my local Whole Foods! So excited!!
I’ve never heard of Kevita and I’m SO pumped to try it! I have a strong obsession with carbonated drinks so this would be great to add in the rotation! the pineapple peach and grapefruit sound great!!
