Ingredients

•1 packet electrolyte drink mix
•8 cups cold water
•1 lemon or orange, sliced
•A few sprigs of mint (optional)

Instructions

1.Fill a large pitcher with the cold water.
2.Stir in the electrolyte drink mix until fully dissolved.
3.Add the sliced citrus and mint, pressing gently to release some of the natural oils and juice.
4.Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving so the flavors have time to infuse.
5.Stir before pouring, since some flavor settles at the bottom.

Tip

Slice the citrus rather than juicing it — whole slices infuse more slowly and evenly over the course of the day instead of dumping all their flavor in at once.
