Nourish DIY Electrolyte Drink Recipe
- 16 oz Water (or coconut water if you have it)
- Juice of 1/2 Lemon
- Juice of 1/2 Lime
- 1 teaspoon Maple syrup or local honey
- 1/4 teaspoon Himalayan Sea Salt
Mix together in a shaker bottle. Add ice if you wish.
NOTE: I often add a teaspoon of apple cider vinegar as well. The lemon, limes and vinegar are all a great source of source of sodium, potassium, calcium and magnesium.
