St. Patrick's Day Hydration Recipes
If you’re celebrating St. Patrick’s Day this year, don’t forget to Get Hy before, during, and after! Replenishing your electrolytes when you’re celebrating is a good idea no matter the holiday, but it’s especially important for one where you might have a few extra rounds of drinks. If you can stay hydrated, it can help you wake up the next day feeling well-rested and refreshed.
We all know what it’s like to wake up feeling rough after a long night out. A lot of what the next day brings is due to common dehydration that can happen from having a bit too much fun. By pregaming with an electrolyte solution and drinking extra water throughout the night, you can keep up your electrolyte levels and feel good after partying hard. You can even mix Hydration right into your cocktails so each drink can work double duty for you.
Get Hy while you celebrate with these enticing mixed drinks designed to help keep you hydrated all night long!
