Electrolyte Drink :: Natural rehydration for colds, flu, foo
When your family isn't feeling well, mix this up to get them on the mend ASAP.
Ingredients
1 ½-2 cups waterJuice of ½ lemon
1/8 to 1/4 tsp real sea salt
2 tsp raw honey local if possible,
Instructions
Everything into a jar with a lid and shake well to combine. This recipe fits perfect in a pint mason jar.Store in the fridge up to a week.
notes!
This recipe makes a pint mason jar perfectly. it for yourself while ill you can double, triple, or more into a pitcher. When I make it for myself I double it into a quart mason jar.
Make the mixture into popsicles! Perfect for scratchy throats too! (And might I add teething toddlers?!)
Since most of the immune system resides in the gut, I also like to add probiotics to the jar if I haven’t been able to get them in any other way during the day.
Please note this drink is not suitable for babies under the age of 1 considering the raw honey and acidity of the lemons. Babies under 1 should be nursing as much as possible during illness, and if baby is not nursing you can use coconut water to hydrate.
