Swap Your Starbucks for a Healthier Version

apple_cider.jpgWe’re a big fan of Hungry Girl’s creative takes on our favorite sips and bites. Her website is jam-packed with healthy alternatives to everything from corn dogs to cupcakes. Just in time for cooler temps outside, we found her rendition of Starbuck’s Caramel Apple Cider. It’s so close to the real deal that we had to share this guilt-free version.  

Guilty Pleasure:  Starbucks Caramel Apple Cider(grande w/ whip) - 410 calories, 10g fat, 76 carbs

Guilt-Free Swap:  Hungry Girl’s Ooey Gooey Caramel Apple Cider  - *50 calories, less than 1g of fat, 10 carbs

Hot cider with caramel & whipped cream doesn’t have to set you back hundreds of calories.  To make this apple-licious treat at home, mix a packet of Alpine Sugar Free Spiced Cider with 6 - 8 oz. of water.  Add a teaspoon of  T. Marzetti’s Light Caramel Apple Dip – then top with a small cloud of Fat Free Reddi-Wip.  Mmmmm!
