  • Total Time: 5 minutes
  • Yield: 3 servings

Ingredients

Ingredients

  • 3 cups cherries, pitted
  • 1 cup coconut water
  • 1/2 tablespoon mineral salt
  • Juice from 3 limes

Instructions

  1. Blend Ingredients: Add cherries, coconut water, mineral salt, and lime juice to a blender. Blend until smooth, creating a natural cherry limeade Gatorade base.
  2. Strain (Optional): If you desire a smoother texture without pulp, strain the blended mixture through a fine mesh sieve. This step is optional as the juice-like texture is already pleasant.
  3. Serve: Pour the cherry limeade Gatorade into a glass filled with ice cubes. Enjoy immediately for a cool, hydrating drink.

Notes

  • Using mineral salt helps replenish electrolytes naturally.
  • You can adjust the amount of lime juice for more or less tartness according to your taste.
  • Cherries can be fresh or thawed frozen cherries.
  • Coconut water adds natural electrolytes and sweetness without added sugar.
  • This drink is best consumed fresh but can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours.
