Why are electrolytes important?
Before we dive into the recipe, let's take a moment to understand why electrolytes are so important for our bodies. Electrolytes are essential minerals, including sodium, potassium, calcium, and magnesium, that help maintain fluid balance, nerve function, muscle contractions, and overall hydration. Especially during hot summer days or after a rigorous workout, our bodies lose electrolytes through sweat, which can lead to fatigue and dehydration.
To make our homemade chewable gummies, we'll be taking inspiration from a classic recipe by Wellness Mama, but with a ReVitalise twist. Let's get started!
Ingredients:
1 cup of ReVitalise electrolyte solution
1/2 cup of high-quality gelatin powder
1 tablespoon of honey or maple syrup (for a touch of natural sweetness)
Optional: a few drops of natural fruit flavouring or extract (e.g., lemon, raspberry, or orange)
Instructions:
Prepare the ReVitalise Electrolyte Solution: Start by mixing one cup of ReVitalise electrolyte solution following the instructions on the product label. Ensure the solution is properly dissolved and set it aside.
Mix the Gelatin Powder: In a small saucepan, combine the gelatin powder with the ReVitalise electrolyte solution. Let the mixture sit for a few minutes to allow the gelatin to "bloom." This step ensures that the gummies will have the perfect chewy texture.
Heat the Mixture: Gently heat the saucepan over low heat, stirring continuously until the gelatin completely dissolves. Be careful not to bring the mixture to a boil.
Add Sweetener and Flavour (Optional): For a touch of natural sweetness, you can add honey or maple syrup to the mixture, stirring until it's fully incorporated. If you desire a fruity flavor, add a few drops of natural fruit extract or flavoring.
Pour the Mixture into Molds: Carefully pour the gelatin mixture into silicone gummy molds. If you don't have specific gummy molds, you can use an ice cube tray or any other mold of your preference.
Refrigerate: Place the molds in the refrigerator and allow the gummies to set for at least 2 to 3 hours. For best results, leave them overnight.
Enjoy Your ReVitalising Gummies: Once the gummies are set, remove them from the molds and store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Grab a few gummies whenever you need an electrolyte boost throughout the day.
These homemade chewable gummies are a fantastic way to supplement your electrolyte intake while avoiding the excess sugars and artificial additives found in many store-bought options. They are a perfect treat for both children and adults, and you can customize the flavour to suit your preferences.
Remember, staying hydrated and replenishing your electrolytes is essential for maintaining energy levels and supporting overall well-being. Incorporate these delicious and nutritious ReVitalise electrolyte gummies into your daily routine, and let the revitalisation begin!
