Spruce up your water: Homemade Citrus Electrolyte Drink

Around here, we like Powerade.  But after reading the back and seeing how much sodium and sugar is in one of those things, I decided to start making my own.  This recipe you can use as a drink itself, or make into ice cubes and add a couple to your water to spruce it up a bit.  I know sometimes drinking enough water can be difficult, it does get boring after awhile.  This will help!  

Ingredients:
  • Orange Juice (Fresh is best!) about 1/2 cup
  • Lemon Juice (The fresher the better) about 1/4 cup
  • 1/2 - 1 TB Honey (to your taste)
  • Dash of salt
  • Enough water to make 3 cups total liquid (about 2 1/4)




Directions:
  • Blend ingredients
  • Pour into Ice Cube trays

  • Freeze
  • Put in water, enjoy!
