Hydrate: Pineapple, Coconut Water, and Electrolyte Replenisher
This is a simple hydrator, perfect for when you've lost your energy and electrolytes. It's made from just three ingredients: pineapple, coconut water, and a little bit of salt. The pineapple provides sweetness and vitamins, the coconut water provides electrolytes and hydration, and the salt helps you to retain those fluids.
I first came up with this recipe when I was living in Hawaii. I was hiking a lot, and I was always getting dehydrated. I tried drinking plain water, but it didn't really help. Then I tried drinking coconut water, and that helped a little bit, but it was still too sweet. Finally, I tried adding some pineapple to my coconut water, and it was the perfect combination. The pineapple added just the right amount of sweetness, and the salt helped me to retain the fluids. I've been drinking this hydrator ever since, and it's always been a lifesaver.
