Homemade Electrolyte Drink
With potassium, ionic minerals and hydration-boosting goodness, a very simple yet very effective homemade electrolyte drink is such a nice thing to know how to make. Feel free to customize the flavors as you like. Mint, a pinch of spicy cinnamon, fresh ginger, cayenne, or maple syrup instead of honey work beautifully in this as well. Make it yours! And make it often 🙂
