Packaged fruit juices often come with large quantities of hidden sugars and multiple calories and are not really healthy as promised by most companies.

This summer, do away with the unnecessary calories and sip on chilled summer coolers. We bring you a round up of the latest coolers to have hit town.

Summer gets fruity
Head to the Ants cafe for a summery Sunday brunch and keep your cool with their range of summer coolers. Try the iced teas that come in passion fruit, peach and lime. The passion fruit version comes with a mix of tea and passion fruit juice. This summer, the cafe has also introduced the tangy goodness of Green Mango and the pulpy freshness of Watermelon juices. And that's not all. While you knock back these coolers to keep you hydrated, do try out the Watermelon & Feta Cheese and Raw Mango Thai salads as part of the summer specials.

Ice, Ice baby
Summer doesn't get cold at this cafe chain, instead it gets Iced Cold. Choose from a range of smoothies, iced and cold drinks from this summer special called Iced Cold Costa. Choose from the iced lattes, mochas and frappuccinos in small, regular and jumbo sizes, This tall glass of creamy iced coffee comes with an overdose of ice cubes and you could even request flavours and a topping of whipped cream. Among the fruit flavoured blasts, try the Mango Cardamom Lemonande, a mild, iced mango flavoured thick granita that comes with a fizz of lime and a hint of cardamom flavour. But beware of trying to sip it all up at one go. It might give you a brain freeze for sure.
