     Could I use splenda or stevia in place of sugar? is there any value to using real sugar other than taste? - 8/20/14

     Saw DIY sport drinks like this on the About.com Walking site years ago. Good & MUCH cheaper than purchased. Thanks! - 8/19/14

     I thought this was very good. I found it very refreshing after my power walks on hot humid days and it tasted great... very grape-y! - 7/8/14

     Read the related article. This is meant to be a sports drink for athletes who need it (as an alternative to Powerade or Gatorade). http://www.sparkpeople.com/resource/nutrit
