Step 1
Mix the salt, potassium, and magnesium together, and store the mixture in an airtight jar.
Step 2
This powder is shelf-stable and should stay fresh based on the expiration dates of the potassium and the magnesium.
Step 3
Mix 1/2 teaspoon of the electrolyte powder with 32 ounces of water.
Step 4
You can consume this drink as is, or you can add additional ingredients to make a sports drink or spa water. (See below.)
Step 5
If you are not ready to consume your electrolyte drink, store your drink in the refrigerator in an airtight bottle. Your refrigerated drink will stay fresh for 3-5 days.
Step 6
Mix 32 ounces of the Basic Electrolyte Drink with 1/4 cup of juice. See "Recipe Notes" below for suggestions, but you can use any type of juice.
Step 7
If you are not ready to consume your sports drink, store your drink in the refrigerator in an airtight bottle. Your refrigerated drink will stay fresh for 3-5 days.
Step 8
Fill a 32-ounce jar with 1/4 cup to 1/2 cup of fresh fruit, vegetables, and/or herbs and spices. (See the video for the fruit and vegetables that I use for my spa water.)
Step 9
Fill the jar to rim with your Basic Electrolyte Drink and cap the jar tightly.
Step 10
Place the jar in your refrigerator and allow it to steep for 4-12 hours. The longer the steep time, the more intense the flavor.
Step 11
Spa water is best consumed after steeping. However, you can strain out the fruit, veggies, herbs, and/or spices and store the strained drink in your refrigerator in an airtight jar. Your refrigerated drink will stay fresh for 3-5 days.
