Ingredients:
1 quart of liquid (options: green tea, herbal tea, coconut water, plain water, etc.)
1/8-1/4 tsp Himalayan Sea Salt (regular table salt will work, but does not have the all the trace minerals)
1/4-1/2 tsp Crushed Calcium Magnesium tablets or powder (optional)
1/4 cup or more of juice (optionsl: grape, apple, lemon, lime, pineapple, etc.)
1-2 tbsp sweetener (optional: can use honey, stevia, etc. I suggest brewing stevia leaf into the base liquid for the most natural option.)
Instructions:
1 Brew tea if using or slightly warm base liquid
2 Add sea salt and calcium magnesium (if using)
3 Add juice and mix or shake well
4 Cool and store in fridge till ready to use
Notes:
(As an example, my normal recipe includes 1 quart of tea (brewed Red Raspberry Leaf, Alfalfa, Nettle and Stevia) ¼ tsp sea salt. ¼ tsp calcium magnesium powder (about 1000 mg), and ¼ cup grape or apple juice).
