“I started practicing karate in 2011 and found it difficult to stay properly hydrated. I tried coconut water, but it tasted awful. I was channel surfing and came across this recipe from the Dr. Oz show during a segment on hydration. It is slightly sweet and full of nutrients that are great for an athlete.” – April Ferre
