Which is why, for this particular group of people, the quickest and easiest options are the most desirable.

Fortunately, for those of us that prefer breakfast in a to-go cup, there are plenty of good, healthy drinks that can be made ahead or in the morning, or even picked up from the local supermarket — things like filling, energy-boosting smoothies and vitamin-rich herbal teas. And if all else fails, and the drive-thru route is the only solution, there are still good options available, ranging from fresh fruit juices to low-calorie coffee drinks.

Read on to check out recipes, supermarket finds, and on-the-go drinks perfect for breaking your bad breakfast habit.
