RECIPE: DIY Electrolyte Drink
DIY Electrolyte Water to keep you hydrated this summer
Recipe courtesy: Dietitian Cassie Dimmick of Achieving Your Best
Ingredients:
2 cups water
1/2 cup freshly squeezed lemon and/or lime juice
1/4 tsp Himalayan pink salt
1/2 tsp honey
Directions:
Combine all ingredients in a mason jar. Shake well. Serve chilled or over ice.
You can store the drink in your refrigerator for up to a week. The Himalayan pink salt helps your body stay hydrated more efficiently. It contains 84 trace minerals.
If you’re enjoying an adult beverage on the lake, make sure you’re also drinking plenty of water too. By the time you realize you’re thirsty, you’re probably already dehydrated. If you have trouble drinking enough water everyday, adding fresh fruit can help add some natural sweetness and flavor.
