Is this used like a supplement or do you add it to things or just eat it with a spoon? - 8/24/14

I love this stuff! Oddly, it is so refreshing! I have some generally twice a day. Yesterday I put it in my hydration bottle for my nine mile run and it was just so refreshing! - 12/28/10

Note: This must be refrigerated! I make this all the time and it goes bad if left on the counter. Can you revise the recipe? - 3/7/08
