Julie Creswell reports:
One of the hottest beverages these days is the refresher.
At Caribou Coffee, one can pick up a Strawberry Coconutmilk Refresher. Taco Bell’s take on the trend includes a Dragonfruit Berry Aqua Refresca. The restaurant chain Sonic released its line in March, which has a Mango Peach Sparkling Refresher.
The battle of the refreshers will intensify when McDonald’s jumps into the fray
No mention of sugar!

The Dragonfruit Berry Aqua Refresher at Taco Bell has 42 grams of sugar.
