  "account": "Content creator Onezwa Mbola recently revealed the beverages she has been consuming during her pregnancy. On Tuesday, September 1st, Mbola announced her second pregnancy. In a TikTok video, Mbola shared that beetroot juice and a non-alcoholic cocktail made with bitters have been her go-to drinks. \"These are the two drinks that have been getting me through pregnancy,\" she stated.\n\nThe non-alcoholic cocktail is called Nomari Bitters and is crafted using strawberry syrup, bitters, orange juice, and tonic water. Mbola described it as a replica of the mocktail she served at her pop-up in Cape Town, which she adored so much that it has become her weekly ritual. She explained that to create the cocktail, she first makes a strawberry syrup using strawberries, mint, and sugar. She then combines the strawberry syrup, ice, orange juice, and tonic water in a glass, stirs, and serves.",
