-------- ------------ --------------------------------
2 Tablespoons sugar
1/8 Teaspoon salt
16 Oz prepared caffeine-free lemon tea
2 Oz orange juice

Dissolve sugar and salt in the hot tea. Cool. Blend the tea with
the juice and refrigerate in your water bottle, or freeze. Can
last in a sealed container up to one week. 9 oz serving equals
60 calories and 15 g of carbohydrate. From Shape magazine.

leeway: I use apple juice, or any fruit juice available. Orange spice
tea is delicious, gives it some kick.
I generally adjust for taste, but you don't want to load up too
much sugar to spike your insulin levels. Inexpensive alternative
to sports drinks for casual workout days.

I call this Carbo Load. It is a fluid replacement product.
