TO TAMI, FROM GREENVILLE, SC; TO MELISSA FROM SAN DIEGO, CA; TO HELEN FROM AUSTIN, TX
I have been traveling extensively, so I didn't realize you had all responded to my inquiry. Thank you! I love Coconut water and have used it at home many times, but we don't have access to coconuts regularly and the grocery stores carry them only seasonally, if at all. That is why I was wondering if an electrolyte sports drink could be made with just everyday common wholesome natural ingredients. When available, I will definitely try the coconut water as electrolyte replacement for my son who perspires profusely under his catcher's gear in baseball. I will also try the salt, sugar and water that Helen suggested, except that I will use sea salt, and substitute maple syrup for the sugar. I wonder if that will still work, and also wonder if Apple Cider Vinegar will do for the potassium, and how much???
Blessings,
Marea from Dallas, Texas
