A Wellness Boost in the Break Room

The break room is where people go to relax, refuel, and connect with co-workers. So, it’s important that the Augusta vending machines or micro markets are stocked with nutritious options. Then label all the top-tier products inside so employees know what’s the best option. You can also show your team support by providing free food. When you subsidize the healthy snacks and food in the break room, you can help employees make positive and healthy choices.

Better Beverages

You are what you eat…and drink! So, put better-for-you drinks in your break room. Try different teas that provide antioxidants and nutrients. Green tea is a favorite that has positive health benefits and is easy to add to office coffee and tea service. Of course, you’ve also got to have clean and healthy water. Staying hydrated is essential to any health goal, so give employees what they need to succeed. You can even consider an Augusta water filtration service that offers carbonated and flavored options. That means employees can replace sugary sodas with hydrating and tasty water. Other healthy drinks to find in your micro market coolers include vitamin waters, fruit juices, iced teas, kombucha, and more.

Health Goals Go Beyond the Diet

It takes more than good food from the vending machine and healthy drinks to reach your health goals. You also need a supportive and motivating community! Help create a supportive space by making support groups at work. For example, you can make clubs for specific types of workouts and interests. Make a biking club, yoga group, or walking club. This will help people find support and like-minded co-workers.

The first thing many employees do each morning is look at the office beverages and grab their favorite. For most, that’s a steaming cup of hot coffee, but not all. More than half your staff wants something else to drink. Are you offering that in your Augusta break room? We can help ensure you are.

Here are the top three office beverages consumed in the workplace:

1. Iced coffee

Iced coffee is refreshing and provides a boost of energy. It’s a popular alternative to soda. Plus, it can be less acidic than hot coffee if it’s made from cold brew coffee.

To get iced coffee in your break room, Riverside Refreshments can add a high-end cold brew tap or iced coffee machine. It’s part of our Augusta office coffee service. It’s also a great way to encourage employees to celebrate and talk together. Iced coffee has a fun vibe, yet is nonalcoholic.

Not ready for a cold brew tap? Instead, add canned or bottled cold brew and iced coffee options in a cold drink vending machine. Or better yet, in an Augusta micro market. Micro markets offer a lot of room for different drink options. Beyond cold brew, we stock many healthy snacks, fresh food, and daily essentials, too. That makes a micro market an employee retention tool.

2. Water

Employees are reaching for water more and more. Water is the best way to hydrate. It has no calories, sugars, or additives. It helps your body replace water lost during the day and boosts health. Plus, there is even research that shows it can stabilize your mood.

Our Augusta vending machines have bottled water for refreshing sips at any time. You can also take your water up a notch with water filtration service. Riverside Refreshments installs a water filtering system that removes bad-tasting particles from your office water. The water dispenser at the other end can be full-size or compact enough to sit on the counter. It includes hot and cold water taps. The result is that staff can refill cups and water bottles with great-tasting filtered water.

3. Tea, the Most Overlooked of Office Beverages

One of the most popular office beverages is tea, especially iced tea. Some brewers can make it fresh for the office. Or, you can request bottled iced tea options in your cold beverage vending machine or micro market.

Hot tea can be a strong alternative to coffee for many employees. One reason is health. Green tea especially is high in antioxidants, which may help prevent or remedy cellular damage.

Another reason some staff may choose tea over office coffee is the caffeine. Or lack thereof. If Augusta employees are sensitive to caffeine or looking for a late afternoon drink choice, they might want tea. Herbal teas are often naturally caffeine-free.

Riverside Refreshments Brings a Mix of Office Beverages to You

The right mix of office beverages is a cheap and easy benefit to offer employees. It means going beyond office coffee, however. Try iced coffee, filtered water, or tea to meet the needs of all your staff. That will help them be more productive and happier.

Don’t miss out on better employee morale over a couple of drink options. Contact Riverside Refreshments to bring in Augusta’s most popular office beverages and all your other break room needs. We’ve got service you can count on and products you want. Reach us at 706-793-2723.
