Print Recipe

A simple, refreshing pink salt electrolyte lemonade that provides natural hydration and energy before workouts, combining fresh lemon juice, pink Himalayan salt, and a touch of natural sweetness.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 3–4 medium fresh lemons, freshly squeezed (about ½ cup or 120 ml lemon juice)
  • ¼ teaspoon pink Himalayan salt
  • 1–2 tablespoons raw honey or maple syrup (adjust to taste)
  • 4 cups (1 liter) filtered water, room temperature or chilled
  • Optional: A handful of fresh mint leaves
  • Optional: A pinch of baking soda

Instructions

  1. Roll each lemon firmly on the counter to soften, then cut in half and juice until you have about ½ cup (120 ml) of fresh lemon juice. Remove any seeds. If you like pulp, skip straining.
  2. In a medium-sized pitcher, combine 4 cups (1 liter) of filtered water with the fresh lemon juice. Stir gently to blend.
  3. Sprinkle in ¼ teaspoon of pink Himalayan salt. Stir well until fully dissolved.
  4. Add 1 to 2 tablespoons of raw honey or maple syrup, depending on desired sweetness. Stir vigorously until the sweetener blends in smoothly.
  5. Optional: Tear a handful of fresh mint leaves and add to the pitcher. Let steep for 5-10 minutes, then remove leaves before serving if preferred.
  6. Taste the lemonade. If too tart, add a pinch of baking soda to soften acidity. Stir well and taste again.
  7. Serve over ice cubes or chill the pitcher for 30 minutes before your workout. Stir before drinking to keep salt evenly distributed.

Notes

Use freshly squeezed lemon juice for best flavor. Adjust sweetness and salt to taste. Stir well before serving as salt can settle. Mint leaves should be steeped gently and removed to avoid bitterness. Can be refrigerated up to 2 days; do not freeze. For a fizzy version, substitute half the water with sparkling water.
