Zero-Proof Fruit Punch Margarita

Fresh lime, a salted rim, and Gatorade Zero Fruit Punch shaken over ice. It reads as a margarita, with no alcohol and no sugar. No one at the table has to know it is also your electrolytes.

Ingredients
  • 1 packet Gatorade Zero Fruit Punch in the collection →
  • 12 ounces cold water
  • 2 limes, one juiced and one cut into wedges
  • Flaky or margarita salt, for the rim
  • Ice, for shaking and serving
Method
  1. 01

    Run a lime wedge around the rim of each glass and dip it through a saucer of salt. The salt carries a lot of the flavor here, so do not skip it.

  2. 02

    Stir the packet into the cold water, then add the juice of one lime.

  3. 03

    Shake the mixture hard with a handful of ice. A jar with a lid works fine in place of a shaker.

  4. 04

    Strain into the salted glasses over fresh ice.

  5. 05

    Garnish with a lime wedge and serve while the glass is still cold.
