     Grizzly Bears Homemade Energy Drink
     Ingredients

     1 Quart water
     1/4 Teaspoon salt
     1/4 Teaspoon baking soda

     Mix together and chill
     The nice thing about this drink is that it can be altered easily. For instance you can add more or less of nearly any of the ingredients. You can even switch out the water and substitute fruit juice, depending on your taste. I usually prepare this ahead of time and let it chill over night. If I want I can even put it in the freezer and let it thaw as I ride.
     This is also very good for long walks, bicycling, jogging……anytime you need a little energy

6. QUESTION:
   Energy drink recipe?
   So... I've been told that the red bull, monster and stuff is bad for you and all that. Recently I've been trying to brew my own energy drink that is healthier. Anybody have any ideas? I need something with lots o' cafiene, lots o' sugar, but the ingerdients must be things that I can find around the house.

   • ANSWER:
     The only reason why regular energy drinks are bad for you is because people use more than they should. If used as intended and in moderation they are NOT bad for you.

     Red Bull, the largest selling energy drink tells people to have only 1 to 2 a day. Even the 2nd largest selling energy drink in the country, which is the 1st and largest selling healthy energy drink, XS Energy recommends having against having more than 2 in a day.

     Now, no need to go threw all of the hastle to brew your own as XS Energy is available. It still has caffeine, tons of B vitamins which are needed for energy, and tuarine which is also good for energy. They have 10 great tasting flavors which along with their 3 caffeine free versions gives them the largest variety on the market. They also have a 100% guarantee. If you don't like it return the rest for free and get a full purchase price back.

     These are sold through private distributors only and cannot be found in stores so ask if you are interested.

    please help me i beg you i'm going through with draws or something! )

    • ANSWER:
      XS energy drinks contain sucralose which is a chlorocarbon, which can cause organ, genetic and reproductive damage... it's not exactly accurate to say it has no bad ingredients. (5 hour energy drinks have them too but it's a much smaller drink) I would recommend making pitchers of iced yerba mate sweetened with stevia. You could add ginseng to enhance the effect, and add lime, lemon, vanilla extract, whatever, to enhance the flavor. It's a bit of work for a 13 year old but maybe you can make your mom do it. It would definitely be a healthier energy drink than canned stuff, it would be cheaper, and it would work.

      1 lemon juiced (1/4 cup)
      1/4 cup simple syrup (equal amounts sugar and water heated until sugar dissolves, cool)
      1 tablespoon RedBull

      Scoop 2 cups each from the watermelon and the cantaloupe using a melon baller. Carve the remainder of the watermelon out and reserve shell.
      Add to a blender the chopped mint, chopped basil, lemon juice, simple syrup and RedBull. Blend until smooth.

    What's are you going to have for food or drink while you watch the race?

    • ANSWER:
      Always something grilled. There will be three couples and everyone brings a special something. It's pretty casual for during the race year but we grill burgers, chicken , steaks etc...today we are having steaks and chicken kabobs. Kabobs for us girls because the guys just look at each other and roll their eyes if we mention it. They will have the steak...delmonico's...
      Grilled corn on the cob (with regular or chipotle butter), salad, chips, beer, bud and coronas are in the fridge now I don't know what will be brought later. I made a white chocolate raspberry cheesecake and a plain one. Thats it.
      In the winter time....for the Daytona 500 thats the big one for me and having parties so I make chili and I also drag out the homemade smoker for some brisket and I am told it can be smelled across town. lol
      Now the drink...beers of course...but it's hot here and one of my friends found a drink recipe that she loved and is bringing the stuff to make it for us I don't know if the guys will like it but it sounds good to me. Sounds like it will taste like those orange cremesicles.
      Its 3/4 oz. apricot brandy
      2 tsp. Cointreau
      1/2 oz. Orange Juice
      1 scoop Ice Cream, vanilla
      1 slice Oranges
      Shake it all up.

      mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm....

35. QUESTION:
    Looking for a natural high energy drink?
    My cousin is ill, not sure with what, chronic ailments and very tired. Still doing testing. He is looking for a recipe or a web site for a natural very high energy drink, not the canned ones as he is afraid of the effects of them on him.

    • ANSWER:
      Some people claim the acai berry juice drinks cure a myriad of ills - it tends to give me diarrhea and stomach cramps.
      Tell your friend to go to the health food store and take a look at the 100% Natural juices and teas there. For antioxidants and energy, I blend herbal tea with natural fruit juices and some water to dilute it a bit and drink it in the morning. Also I recommend he start taking a multi-vitamin to replenish the vitamins he may be losing to medicines and the like. Tell him to schedule long periods of sleep to get the rest his body needs to recuperate, sometimes just plain sleep is a good thing. Eliminate alcohol, coffee, and sodas if he can for a while, and drink water, and 100% fruit juices (watered down if they are too strong at one sitting) - the good stuff like Knudsen's in the health food store, not the cheap stuff. The antioxidants will surely help.

49. QUESTION:
    Make your own Red Bull, RockStar energy drink with sodas, juices, other flavors?
    I love the taste of Rock Star, Red Bull, Ace, Monster, Full Thottle, etc... But at to a CAN!?! C'mon!

    I've been experimenting with different sodas and ingredients to replicate the taste and have really come nowhere close. (Though an AirBorne Cold Tablet in mountain dew, club soda, and a little orange juice isn't bad!)

    I don't really care about the caffeine and ginseng and all that stuff. Please don't respond with "cough syrup". I really want to come up with a good recipe and save all of us some money by sharing it with as many people as possible.

    I couldn't find anything on the web? Maybe you'll have better luck?

    Happy Concocting!!

    • ANSWER:
      i have found myself in the same position as you. sadly there is really no way to recreate the flavor without expensive ingredients. I will be trying to accomplish this as a chemistry project.

      a key part of the flavor (the sourness) comes froma high dose of citric acid

      p.s. another option that i do is buy in serious bulk when energy drinks go on sale. i have also found great 1 dollar energy drinks at 1 dollar stores ( for example rip it, pihrana, mad dawg)
