MIX TO SUIT YOUR TASTEBUDS

[albaugh1976]

I just made up a batch this afternoon and this is the exact amounts of ingredients I used:

1 cup sugar
1 tea-spoon of Morton Lite Salt
2 packs of non-sweetened Kool-Ade

Mix these together and spoon out two or three tea-spoons of the the powder into a Nalgene. Store the rest of the powder however you like for backpacking. It's essentially the same thing as Gatorade at a fraction of the price. It tastes identical in my opinion.

They have powdered gatorade for pretty cheap now in nice packable canisters.

I tried your Gatorade Mix. Great idea. I am always looking for inovations on meals and drinks straight from the kitchen, The Frig.
