I am so going to do this. I have so many cups mugs containers to use. I am struggling with my liquid intake right now. Have been since appendix surgery and I do not know why. These look so refreshing and delicious! I have off job2 tonight so I will take a trip to the Asian market (fruit and veggie market, plus a deli section) THANK YOU
