You can keep yourself hydrated with just about any liquid, but I find I drink plain old water more than any other beverage. It may be a zero calorie drink, but it doesn't really offer much nutritionally or taste wise either. That's why including other beverages in your diet is a good idea; they provide vitamins, calcium, antioxidants, and something we all feel we sometimes need — caffeine. To see how some common drinks compare nutritionally, take this quiz.

Wow -- I completely got destroyed on this one!
1Wow...I don't think I've ever done this poorly...probably because I don't really buy most of this stuff...like Redbull, Dunkin Donuts, Starbucks, Jamba Juice, etc.
2Wow, this was a wake up call!
3Wow is right! I was way off. Good thing I generally drink soy lattes, plain tea, and water! Not a fan of soda, thankfully.
4ouch, but in my defense "someone" (not a nutritionist, obv) told me long ago that chardonnay had around 90 calories a glass... dunno why that stuck with me but it must be wrong haha, good thing i wasn't keeping track
5i didn't really bad....eck!
6i think it's all the math lol... 4 oz this 1 cup that its hard bc you have to consider size and all that.
7Wow- I bombed that one~
8I bombed.
9I failed miserably on this one! I can't believe Starbuck's 2% hot cocoa has 16GB of fat.
1016G*, not gigs hehe. I've been thinking about iPods all morning.
11I did terribly, however it's easier to check sugar contents of juices at the grocery store
12That was bad. Good thing I only drink tea, light soymilk, and water.
13I totally bombed this one. It's probably a good thing that I don't really like fruit juices or sugary coffee drinks.
14Ouch... 1/6! I don't really drink a lot of that stuff though... and I don't think we have some of those brands in Canada, I've never heard of them except for Starbucks (and Coke and Red Bull, obvs)
15Not one right. Sheesh.
16I am embarrassed at my performance. I guess it's good that I mostly just drink water.
17I got half right...
18I sucked...but I don't live in the US so I don't know most of these beverages.
19ok - i'll admit it - i didn't even get one right - but at least now i know the right answers!
