This past weekend my mom wanted a very specific drink from a very specific place for part of her breakfast, but come to find out... they don't even make it anymore. Gasp! Shows just about how often my family visits take-out or fast food places anymore. I'm not complaining.

Funny enough, I already had a similar slurp on the menu for the week with a few needed upgrades. In fact, my mom got in trouble for using up some of the orange juice that I had specifically went out and purchased for this exact recipe! She's just lucky that I had enough to do what I wanted and needed.

With back-to-school comes germs. And lots of them too! Just think about it... you're starting a new routine and being exposed to the creepy-crawlies of numerous other friends, families, and relatives, etc. I always try and take the pro-active approach with protecting my family from germs.

I also like to stock up on items and Walmart that help treat illness and soothe discomfort when those germs do manage to get through the forcefield I try and build up! It doesn't matter if you're being pro-active or re-active, this Sunrise Sipper is great for either. 

I've created the perfect drink here to help boost your immunity and get you started on your day, using Emergen-C, orange juice, limeade, and fresh fruits. Emergen-C is packed with B vitamins, antioxidants†, electrolytes plus more vitamin C than 10 oranges^. With over 20 flavors, you have plenty of delicious varieties to choose from.* For this drink I decided to go with the 'Super Orange' for the added vitamins and orange flavor to pair with my orange juice.
