Recipe Introduction

From Wellness Mama - http://wellnessmama.com/2575/natural-sports-drink-alternatives-recipe/

List of Ingredients

1 quart of liquid (options: green tea, herbal teas, coconut water, plain water, etc)
1/8-1/4 tsp Himalayan Sea Salt (regular table salt will work, but it doesn’t have all the trace minerals)
1/4 to 1/2 tsp crushed Calcium magnesium tablets or powder (optional)
1/4 cup or more of juice (optional. Can use grape, apple, lemon, lime, pineapple, etc)
1-2 TBSP sweetener (optional)- can use honey, stevia, etc. I suggest brewing stevia leaf into the base liquid for the most natural option.


Recipe

Brew tea if using or slightly warm base liquid.

Add sea salt and calcium magnesium. (if using)

Add juice and mix or shake well.

Cool and store in fridge until ready to use.

Author's Note: As an example, my normal recipe includes 1 quart of tea (brewed with Red Raspberry Leaf, Alfalfa, Nettle and Stevia), 1/4 tsp sea salt, 1/4 tsp calcium magnesium powder (about 1,000 mg), and 1/4 cup grape or apple juice.
