Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Add a small amount of water to a collapsible soft flask.
  2. Break the NUUN tablet in half, placing both halves into the bottle, and dissolve it fully. The tablet is broken in half simply so it fits through the bottle opening.
  3. In a Pyrex or heat safe container, add warm water.
  4. Dissolve the sea salt and honey completely in the warm water. This step matters or the salt and honey will clump and not mix evenly.
  5. Add the lemon juice and stir well.
  6. Pour this mixture into the collapsible bottle with the NUUN solution.
  7. Top off with water if needed.
  8. Freeze overnight.
