If your little one is a fruit juice addict, here's a simple alternative that tastes like juice. It's fruit-based herbal tea! Brew, add a little brown sugar or honey (if your child is over 12 months), then cool with ice. Put in a sippy cup or serve with lunch.
The best brand I can find at the moment is Twinings teas that have raspberry, elder flower, blackcurrant and a cornucopia of other infusions.
Fruity herbal iced-tea

1/2 tsp brown sugar or 1 tsp honey
