I know there have been posts before but has anyone any decent recipes for home made energy drinks? Muchos gracias!
50/50 dilution of your favourite fruit juice and water with 1/5 of a teaspoon of water per litre.
For more of a hydration drink put in more water, for more of an energy drink use more fruit juice.

There is a BIG difference between "Energy Drink" and "ISOTONIC."
Energy drink = Red bull style drink
Isotonic = Lucozade Sport style drink
The above recipes are for ISOTONIC drinks. (but the posters forgot to put in salt.)
If you want an ENERGY drink then mix a strong cup of coffee with breast milk ( thats Caffeine and taurine in technical speak.)
Good luck.
roadie in denial - 1/5 of a teaspoon of salt? not water? can't tell if its a joke in there or whether you wrote the wrong thing.
Energy in this context doesn't mean caffiene, although it can help. It should mean some carbohydrate content which will actually give your tired muscles something to work on rather than just keep you awake. If you go to myprotein.co.uk you can get a huge sack of maltodextrin for about 12 quid. That's the carb ingredient for all the energy drinks on the market. Mix that with squash for flavour, maybe some salt or drop in a High 5 Zero tablet to give you the electrolytes.
Put a pint of milk in a blender, then add 1 loaf of soreen and blend it up. Perfect.
Malt loaf's my favourite 'energy bar' as it's brilliant low-fat carbs. How thick is it when you've blended it - can you drink it from a bike bottle or camelback with gumming them up?

How do you know what he does or doesnt want?
The guy asked for an energy drink recipe. I gave him one.
Granted getting breast milk might be a problem but he didnt ask for a carbo drink. He asked for an energy drink.
Oh and why doesnt energy mean caffeine in this context? You dont know the context.
**** knows, I just put it in a pint glass and use one of these:

Chia seeds. And no shoes.
Attack of the one armed logger! Thanks for all these replies looking forward to trying at least one of them!
buttermilk, honey and something else that i can't remember. told to me by some old tirolean geezer who kept bees.
he made some up for me and it tasted quite nice. not much help, sorry.
I stand corrected. I meant to write 1/5 of a teaspoon of salt per litre. That's what I get for speed typing and not proof reading what I've written. Apologies.
2 x maltodextrin 1 x fructose with a pinch of salt or electrolyte powder. Dash of juice to taste.
1 chest eeze tablet, 1 200mg caffeine tablet, and 10mg of chinese manufactured dianabol. all washed down with a bottle of dragon 7.5% stout and followed by a spliff.
i have some bad habits.
Fill a kilner jar with sloes. Pour sugar into it till about half way up the jar. Top up with gin or vodka.
Leave for at least three months - if you can wait that long.
Rocket fuel I tell you.
What do you mean it's not energy drink - it's got sugar in it.
lol that's my kind of energy drink!
