Looking for something non-alcoholic that both hydrates and keeps you well? Karma Wellness Water is a delicious take on the usual bottled water, by offering CBD Water, Probiotic Water, and Wellness Water! The CBD water is essential in my home, but all three varieties are a great way to be a little healthier for this new year. I’m a huge fan of the orange mango water — I drink it on my way to work every morning!
