When you think of cocktails, your first thought probably isn't your immune system. But doing something good for your body may as well be a welcome byproduct of your happy hour or backyard party. The trick to turning your tipple into a wellness elixir is to use simple, natural mixers, like fresh fruits and herbs, and go easy on the sugar. These ingredients carry natural sweetness and a burst of flavor, but also pack some serious immune-boosting properties.

Think of immune-boosting drinks you'd normally turn to when you're feeling under the weather, like lemonade and ginger tea, and you'll notice they have a lot of ingredients in common with the most delicious alcoholic beverages. So no, you don't have to dust your rim with Emergen-C to get vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants from your cocktails-just harness the power of nature's bounty with these simple immune-boosting cocktails.

When it comes to mixed drinks, the fewer the ingredients you use to flavor your spirit of choice, the closer you are to a wellness elixir. Not to mention, your waistline will benefit from the natural approach of no added sugar. This paloma recipe is stripped down to basics, and uses only freshly squeezed grapefruit juice and lime juice for flavor and sweetness. "Grapefruit is an excellent food to choose to boost your immune system. It is high in vitamin C (half a grapefruit has 68 percent of your recommended daily intake) which has antioxidant properties and can boost your cells in fighting off bacteria and viruses," notes Jessi Holden, MS, RDN, CSOWM. Bottoms up!

Yes, you can easily picture muddled strawberries in a fresh fruity cocktail. Not only do they make an excellent mixer, but they're also going to add significant amounts of vitamin C to your drink. And it's an especially good choice during the time of seasonal viral infections. "There is evidence-based science that suggests boosting vitamin C can help support recovery from viral infections," says Jennifer Tyler Lee, a nutrition expert and co-author of Half the Sugar, All the Love. To that end, make sure you're choosing a drink that was made with the actual fruit, and not a strawberry concentrate filled with sugar. A simple way to turn fresh strawberries into a healthy mixer is to blend them with some lime juice and honey, which is why we highly recommend this margarita recipe.

The benefits of cucumber juice to overall health and wellness are well-documented. It's lauded for its 95 percent water content and contains a ton of electrolytes, which makes it highly hydrating and the perfect post-workout recovery drink. And lucky for you, it's also a beautifully refreshing addition to any healthy cocktail. We particularly love the idea of keeping things simple, like in this Cucumber Vodka Soda recipe, which is a true fridge-cleanout cocktail. If you want to make things even healthier, skip the simple syrup.

Because of its powerful anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, ginger is a key ingredient for overall health. It has been shown to aid digestion, help protect against cancer, boost metabolism, and even improve circulation. Who wouldn't want to reap the benefits of this miracle root? Plus, its wonderful, spicy flavor can go a long way in adding some zing to your drinks. This whiskey cocktail is a lesson in simplicity and using ginger to quickly infuse flavor.

Matcha is a pure green tea powder, derived from tea leaves that have the highest amount of chlorophyll. It's known as a powerful antioxidant that can aid cardiovascular health by lowering the "bad" cholesterol and increasing the "good". While you know it better as an ingredient in your lattes, it's also an excellent hack to an immune-boosting cocktail in a pinch. A shot of gin will turn a simple matcha mocktail into a delicious, refreshing cocktail perfect for warm-weather brunches.

Pineapple is highly hydrating and full of vitamin C. We recommend using the fresh version of the fruit in cocktails, because you'll reap the health benefits without high amounts of sugar that are usually packed into pineapple concentrates and juices. This recipe uses a whole fresh pineapple to make six servings, which is perfect if you're making a batched cocktail for a party. Pre-make the mixer and stir it with a shot of rum for individual cocktails. Then prance around like the hostess with the mostest that you are.

Aperitifs are herbal bitters usually consumed before food to whet one's appetite. Compared to digestifs, which are consumed for better digestion after a meal, aperitifs have less sugar and more pronounced herbal notes. All in all, they make for perfect low ABV drinks which are more refreshing than alcoholic, and can get your digestive juices flowing. Although aperitifs and digestifs are found in many cocktails, one of the simples examples of how to use them is an Aperol Spritz. A spritz can be anything that follows the formula of bitter liqueur + sparkling wine + fizzy water, but we just love the color and flavor of this tried and true classic.

A hot toddy needs no introduction. It's a beloved drink of whiskey, honey, and lemon juice, usually consumed in colder months. You'll find all three of its main ingredients on lists of home remedies for cold symptoms, but there's actually science behind it, too. First of all, lemon juice is full of vitamin C, honey carries antibacterial properties, and cinnamon is anti-inflammatory. A 2008 study out of Cardiff University has shown that drinking a hot fruit beverage has the ability to soothe a sore throat, chilliness, and tiredness connected to the common cold. A year-round Hot Toddy habit may not be the worst idea you've ever had, but you can reap its health benefits in a chilled cocktail using the same ingredients, too.

They say red wine is the healthiest alcoholic beverage out there. Its health benefits have been the focus of much research and are well documented: consuming it in moderation can improve cardiovascular health, lower cholesterol levels, and help prevent type 2 diabetes. If you get your hands on a good quality bottle of red, or you're looking for a nice cheese or steak pairing, you'll want to drink it undiluted. But when you need a bit of whimsy, especially in the summer when so much delicious fruit is in season, turning your red wine into a refreshing sangria is a special treat. We love this Blackberry Sangria recipe inspired by Carraba's sangria, but you could also skip the brandy and extra sugar, if you're looking for a truly healthy sipper.

These bite-sized pizzas taste just like their namesake and are sure to bring the heat on game day.

Ingredients

1 pkg (11 oz) refrigerated thin crust pizza crust (see Cook''s Tip)

4 slices bacon

1 small red bell pepper (about 1/2 cup/125 mL finely diced)

2 jalapeño peppers

4 oz (125 g) cream cheese, softened

1 cup (250 mL) shredded cheddar cheese, divided

1 cup (250 mL) corn chips (about 1/2 cup/125 mL crushed chips)

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Place dough onto Cutting Board (do not unroll dough). Using a sawing motion, slice dough into 24 disks using Utility Knife. Place disks onto Large Bar Pan; press to flatten and seal seams. Bake 11-13 minutes or until golden brown. Remove pan from oven to Stackable Cooling Rack.

2. Meanwhile, slice bacon into 1/4-in. (6-mm) pieces; cook in (8-in./20-cm) Sauté Pan over medium-high heat 8-10 minutes or until crisp. Remove bacon from pan using Nylon Turner; drain on paper towels. Drain pan, leaving 1 tsp (5 mL) drippings in pan. Finely dice bell pepper using Utility Knife. Chop jalapeños using Food Chopper. Add bell pepper and jalapeños to pan; cook over medium heat 2-3 minutes or until tender.

3. Combine cream cheese, half of the cheddar cheese, bacon and peppers in Classic Batter Bowl; mix well. Divide cream cheese mixture evenly over crusts. Sprinkle with remaining cheese and crushed chips. Bake 4-6 minutes or until cheese is melted and crusts are golden brown. Remove pan from oven to cooling rack. Serve using Mini-Serving Spatula.

Cook's Tips:

If desired, a 13.8-oz (283-g) package of refrigerated pizza crust can be substituted for the refrigerated thin crust dough. Place dough onto lightly floured Cutting Board. Keeping dough in log shape, gently roll dough into a thinner cylinder measuring 11 1/2 in. (29 cm). Proceed as recipe directs.

For maximum impact, the veins and seeds of the jalapeño peppers have been kept in this recipe. For a mild version, remove and discard them.

Ingredients

3 russet potatoes
Scrubbed clean

1 tablespoon vegetable oil,
Canola or Olive Oil work as well

Salt/Pepper, to taste

2.5 cups cheddar cheese, shredded

6 slices bacon, uncooked

1 Tablespoon Italian Seasoning

2 green onions, diced

Instructions

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Take out the bacon and set it aside for 5 minutes (this makes it crispier).

Cut the potatoes into 3/4 inch slices. Use a pastry brush to lightly coat the tops with oil. Flip and repeat. Season with salt and pepper.

Bake the slices on a baking sheet in the oven for 25 minutes.

As the potatoes bake, cook the bacon over low heat. Use kitchen tongs to flip them periodically for even cooking. Set them aside once finished, leave the bacon drippings.

Remove the potato slices from the oven and lightly brush with bacon drippings. Flip and repeat. Bake for 10 more minutes. Meanwhile, crumble the bacon.

Decrease the heat to 350 degrees. Top the potatoes with grated cheese and crumbled bacon. Place back in the oven until the cheese is melted, about 5 minutes.

Remove the slices from the oven. Sprinkle with Italian seasoning, then top with green onions. Serve with sour cream and enjoy!
