Citrus Electrolyte Drink

from https://illinoiscancercare.com/news/electrolytedrinkrecipe/

Makes 2 servings

1/2 cup fresh orange juice
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
2 cups water (filtered or raw coconut water)
2 tbsp organic raw honey or organic maple syrup
1/8 tsp Himalayan pink salt

Blend all ingredients in a blender until smooth. Chill as desired.

(I halved the recipe, measured the ingredients into a 2-cup wide-mouth mason jar, put on a lid, and shook to blend.)

To Try: Pink Grapefruit Margaritas

Copyright 2010, Ina Garten, From “Barefoot Contessa:  How Easy Is That?”

Makes 4 drinks

• 1 lime, cut in wedges, optional
• Kosher salt, optional
• 1 cup ruby red grapefruit juice
• 1/2 cup freshly squeezed lime juice (4 limes)
• 1 cup orange liqueur, such as Triple Sec
• 2 cups ice
• 1 cup white tequila

If you like a salt rim on the glasses, rub the lime around the edge of the glass and then dip the rim of each glass lightly in a plate of kosher salt. Set aside to dry.

Combine the grapefruit juice, lime juice, orange liqueur, and ice in a blender and puree until smooth. Pour into a large pitcher and stir in the tequila. If you’re not serving the margaritas in salted glasses, stir 1/4 teaspoon of salt into the pitcher of margaritas. Believe me, it will make a difference!

Serve ice cold.
