Survive footy fixtures with 'hydration break' hack used by Kelly Brook

Survive footy fixtures with 'hydration break' hack used by Kelly Brook

Hydration breaks have become a big talking points of the World Cup - but it's not just the players who could benefit from taking a drinks break.

After beating DR Congo last night, England are still in the game! But with late-night kick-offs, daily fixtures, sweepstakes and watch parties stretching into the early hours, tuning into the tournament feels like an endurance sport in itself.

England will play Mexico at 1am on Monday, and just as players use hydration breaks to stay match-fit, fans can keep energised through the late fixtures by zebra-striping - the habit of alternating alcoholic drinks with alcohol-free alternatives.

On her Heart Radio show, Kelly Brook shared her love for zebra-striping and hailed it the amazing "Gen-Z drinking trend". It's a great way to stay in the game for every goal, celebration and fixture without blowing the final whistle on your next day. 
For those looking to stock up on alcohol-free options, Eisberg's eye-catching canned sparkling wine range, BE FREE, was made to meet the occasion, without the booze.
