Tea (Tea India) (1 Serving) and Coconut Water (1 Cup)

Choose unsweetened coconut water and avoid blends with added sugar, syrups, fruit juice, or honey.

Reduce the serving to about 120–180 mL and sip it slowly rather than drinking it quickly.

Have it with a small protein- and fat-containing snack, such as a handful of almonds or walnuts.

Add chia seeds to the drink or have chia pudding alongside it to slow absorption.

Drink the tea plain, or use cinnamon, lemon, or mint for flavor instead of sugar.

Consider replacing part or all of the coconut water with plain water or sparkling water when you want tea with minimal glucose impact.
