I've been buying the big cans of gatorade powder lately because I've been busy and they are cheap. But they are still absurdly expensive for what is essentially just salt with food coloring and artificial flavor, and I dislike how much sugar it contains.

I agree with all of them having too much sugar, and fake sugar tastes awful to me. I make mine with honey, salt, and lemon juice. Everything can be adjusted how I like, I make it very diluted. Also my dentist recommended I drink it with a straw, and drink plenty of water afterwards before brushing my teeth, to neutralize any acid. But I love citrus, and especially lemons, so so much.
