Coconut Citrus Nature's Gatorade - Fit Foodie Finds

I had to put my own spin on the viral nature’s gatorade trend, and oh my gosh I’m here to report that this recipe truly lives up to the hype! My coconut citrus nature’s gatorade features coconut water, freshly squeezed orange and lime juice, an electrolyte packet (my go-to is LMNT), and is garnished with fresh citrus and mint. It’s bright, refreshing and better than any store-bought gatorade.

A glass of orange-colored iced drink garnished with lime, orange slice, and mint, with a straw, sits on a coaster next to fresh citrus fruits and mint leaves.

Amazing flavor
Super hydrating
Better than gatorade

Ingredients You Need

Coconut water: Coconut water adds great flavor and amazing hydrating properties.
Electrolyte powder: I used citrus salt LMNT, but feel free to use your favorite electrolyte powder.
Sumo oranges: Freshly juiced oranges work best! I love love love sumo oranges, but any variety of orange will work if it’s not sumo season.
Lime: Freshly juiced lime works best!
Mint: I love garnishing my nature’s gatorade with fresh mint.

Three friends enjoying drinks, including a refreshing sleepy girl mocktail, sit beside a box of LMNT electrolyte drink mix on the wooden table.
