"There are numerous accounts throughout history of monks, physicians and alchemists who were interested in distilled alcohol as a cure for ailments, so it makes sense that these great-tasting recipes could also have healthy benefits," said Koplowitz.
When creating drinks for your next party or social gathering, adding these ingredients may benefit oral health:
Strawberries: The malic acid in strawberries acts as a safe bleaching agent that rivals many expensive teeth whitening products.
Pineapple: These flavorful fruits contain vitamin K and C, as well as other substances that promote healing. Eating pineapple generates a healing alkaline response in the mouth.
Carrot juice: Essential for forming tooth enamel, carrot juice is loaded with vitamin A.
Ginger: This spicy yet sweet root has anti-inflammatory properties, which support healthy mouth tissue.
Try these refreshing drink recipes, which use healthy ingredients for cheery cocktails that will make your guests smile big at your next gathering.
