I Was Tired of the Juice Box Aisle -- So I Made My Own

As a mom of two, I've always felt very committed to my 'no juice' decision. I knew the downsides of excess sugar for kids, and juice was never something I kept in my home.

All was good, except when it came to events. Every birthday party, soccer game, and school function, there were tables filled with juice boxes and pouches, each one with more sugar than the last. I just couldn't be the only parent saying 'no'. So my kids had the juice.

At home, it wasn't an option. My kids had water and sometimes milk. I drank electrolytes and low-sugar lemonade packets, and they often shared mine. This was fine at home - but at parties? I couldn't exactly stand there with packets, dumping them into tiny water bottles.

I started to wonder "why isn't there a low-sugar, electrolyte option for kids?". Not a packet, not something made for adults. I wanted a BETTER JUICE BOX. 

That’s why I created Dee’s Happy Hydration.

Dee’s is a low-sugar juice box for kids with added electrolytes and just 3g of sugar per box. We made it to be the kind of drink parents actually wish existed: flavorful, fun, convenient, and made with better ingredients.

Our first flavor, Strawberry Lemonade, was inspired by all the things kids love about juice boxes — just with a more thoughtful approach behind it. 

Because kids deserve fun drinks.
And parents deserve better choices.

This whole journey started with one simple thought: why can't someone make a better juice box?

We’re so excited to finally share Dee’s with you and your family. We hope you love it as much as we do.

Better choices, bigger smiles.
