5 DIY Electrolyte Drink Recipes You Can Make at Home

Hydration, upgraded - without sugar or fillers.

Electrolyte drinks don’t have to be packed with sugar, dyes, or mystery ingredients. With a bit of creativity and one clean, science-backed sachet of SALTE, you can craft your own refreshing electrolyte drinks right at home - tailored to your taste, routine, and recovery needs.

Whether you’re replenishing after a workout, managing hydration on a hot day, or looking for a smarter hangover helper, these 5 DIY electrolyte drink recipes will keep you balanced, energised, and fully refreshed.

Why DIY Electrolyte Drinks?

When your body sweats, it loses essential minerals - especially sodium, potassium, and magnesium. These aren’t just “nice to have” nutrients. They power your muscles, fuel your brain, and help your cells absorb the water you drink.

SALTE contains:

800 mg sodium
400 mg potassium
60 mg magnesium

All in a sugar-free, naturally flavoured sachet that makes your DIY drinks functional and delicious. Check out our unflavored electrolyte if you prefer zero taste, but full function.
