SWITCHEL: THE ORIGINAL GATORADE
My family used to drink this on the farm when I was a kid. It went by the gallons when the men would come in from the fields. I was given it again recently as I lost it a while back and my memory is not what it used to be so I was very glad to get it.

Steps:
- 1. Combine 1 quart water, the vinegar, sugar, molasses, and ginger root and simmer for 15 minutes uncovered. Remove from heat, cover, and allow to cool for 30 minutes.
- 2. Serve over Ice. Keeps well in the refrigerator. I used to serve this to my kids in the summer and when they were playing sports.
Tips:
- Use fresh ingredients: The fresher the ingredients, the better the Gatorade will taste. If possible, use fruits and vegetables that are in season.
- Adjust the sweetness to your liking: The amount of sugar or honey you add to the Gatorade is up to you. Taste the Gatorade as you make it and add more sweetener if desired.
- Add a pinch of salt: A pinch of salt can help to balance out the sweetness of the Gatorade and make it more refreshing.
- Chill the Gatorade before serving: Chilled Gatorade is more refreshing and thirst-quenching than warm Gatorade.
- Experiment with different flavors: There are many different ways to flavor Gatorade. Try adding different fruits, vegetables, herbs, or spices to create your own unique flavors.
Conclusion:
Gatorade is a popular sports drink that can help to replenish fluids and electrolytes lost through sweating. It is also a good source of carbohydrates, which can provide energy during exercise. However, commercial Gatorade can be expensive and high in sugar. Making your own Gatorade at home is a great way to save money and control the ingredients. With a few simple ingredients, you can make a delicious and refreshing Gatorade that is perfect for rehydrating after a workout or on a hot day.
