One of my favorite drinks in the winter is Gatorade Tea. Because of my POTS and dysautonomia I am supposed to drink Gatorade every day; it helps to keep my blood volume up. A few years ago I started making Gatorade Tea, which is basically Russian Tea made with Gatorade instead of Tang. It's a great way to have a hot drink while still consuming the electrolytes I need. I want to share the recipe for those of you with dysautonomia who may also benefit from this drink in the winter.
Gatorade Tea
2 Cups Gatorade
1 Cup instant black tea
2 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp cloves
Mix ingredients well and store in airtight container.
Put 2-3 heaping spoonsful into a cup of hot water. Stir and enjoy.
Ooooh, yummy! I love Russian tea -- reminds me of my childhood. :-)
ReplyDeleteThe tea sounds yummy. I have been putting 1/4 teaspoon of salt of my flavored tea. I'm unablr to have gatorade due to the sugar. I wonder if propel would work?
ReplyDeleteTake care of yourself I know from my experience when I get run down it takes along time to return to the way you were prior if you do pam
I don't remember every seeing an orange flavored propel, but if they make one I'm sure that would work to make the Russian Tea.
