I’m LOVING this diy gatorade recipe. So refreshing and delicious!
Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups coconut water
1 cup freshly squeezed grapefruit juice
1 cup roselle hibiscus tea
1 tablespoon raw honey, maple syrup or date sauce - optional

Directions:
Start by preparing your hibiscus tea. You can use a teabag or the dried hibiscus flowers.
While your tea is still hot, add your preferred sweetener and stir until dissolved. Allow to cool, then refrigerate until well chilled.
In a glass, mix coconut water, grapefruit juice and salt, next add the ice.
Slowly pour 1/3 cup of the chilled hibiscus tea as the top layer. Enjoy!
