Staying hydrated in hot weather doesn't have to mean a plain glass of water. These 3 recipes with Isotonic Drink lemon flavor mix the sachet with fruit and a little honey to make a pineapple and lime, an orange and lemon, and a citrus and grapefruit isotonic drink, each ready in a couple of minutes.
A Refreshing Isotonic Drink for Hot Days
When the temperature climbs, plain water can start to feel a bit dull, and it is easy to end up drinking less than you should. Our Isotonic Drink lemon flavor is designed to fix that: mix a sachet with water and fruit and you get a drink that is easier to enjoy in the heat while still doing the job of an isotonic drink. Here are three ways to prepare it.
What does Isotonic Drink powder do in this recipe?
The Isotonic Drink lemon flavor sachet replaces a plain glass of water with a lightly flavored drink that also supplies electrolytes, which is useful when you are sweating more than usual in the heat.
Is this drink suitable to have before a workout?
Yes, a light, fruity isotonic drink like this one works well shortly before training, since it helps you go into your session properly hydrated without feeling heavy.

| Water | 500 ml |
| Isotonic Drink lemon flavor | 1 sachet |
| Pineapple juice | 250 ml |
| Lime juice | 1 tbsp |
Can I prepare the pineapple and lime isotonic drink in advance?
Yes, you can mix it a few hours ahead and keep it in the fridge in a sealed jug, giving it a quick stir before serving.
Orange and Lemon Isotonic Drink
| Water | 500 ml |
| Isotonic Drink lemon flavor | 1 sachet |
| Orange | 1 |

Why does the orange and lemon isotonic drink include honey?
The honey adds a touch of natural sweetness and a small amount of extra energy, balancing out the tartness of the orange and lemon.
How many servings does this recipe make?
With 500 ml of water plus the juice and fruit listed, this recipe makes roughly two regular glasses of isotonic drink.
Citrus and Grapefruit Isotonic Drink
| Water | 500 ml |
| Isotonic Drink lemon flavor | 1 sachet |
| Grapefruit | 1 |
| Honey | 15 g |
Why does this recipe use grapefruit instead of mango?
The original ingredient list for this citrus isotonic drink calls for grapefruit rather than mango, so that is the fruit used here; if you prefer a sweeter, tropical version, mango is a reasonable swap.
Can I swap the fruit in these isotonic drink recipes?
Yes, the water and Isotonic Drink sachet form the base, so you can experiment with other citrus fruits or seasonal fruit juices while keeping the same proportions.
How to Mix These Isotonic Drinks
- Pour the water into a jug or shaker.
- Add the Isotonic Drink lemon flavor sachet and stir or shake until it dissolves completely.
- Add the fruit juice or fruit and, where the recipe calls for it, the honey.
- Stir well, chill, and serve over ice.
Can I make a larger batch of these isotonic drinks?
Yes, you can scale up the water, Isotonic Drink sachets and fruit in the same proportions if you are preparing a batch for several people or a longer training session.
Tips for Enjoying These Isotonic Drinks
Any of these three combinations works as a refreshing break during a hot day or as extra hydration around a workout. If you want to see the rest of the range, our isotonic drinks come in other flavors too. And if you are after more cold, hot-weather ideas, take a look at our sugar-free slushies for another way to cool down.
How should I store any isotonic drink I don't finish right away?
Keep it in a sealed bottle or jug in the fridge and drink it within a day, giving it a shake before pouring since the fruit can settle.
Remember: if you have any doubts about your particular case, speak to a healthcare professional. Food supplements are not a substitute for a varied and balanced diet.
