Getting well hydrated helps you concentrate, reduces your memory, reduces infections, prevents kidney problems, gives you energy and helps you feel better. In addition to being able to prevent a heart attack.

Maybe you can use blueberries, cranberries, blackberry, mulberry or cherry. If you don´t have mint you can use good herb (hierbabuena) is similar than mint.
We have blueberry, thanks for the tips
