This Homemade Energy Drink is full of flavor, easy to throw together, and is a lot healthier than store bought energy drinks. Summer heat means staying hydrated is more important than ever. But if you want something stronger than fruit infused water, you're going to love this energy drink recipe.

Homemade Energy Drink...ditch the store bought version and make it easily at home.

When it's hot out or when we are really active, I like to have energy drinks on hand in addition to lots and lots of water. My kids, of course, love super sweet drinks but I'm trying to watch their sugar intake and other unnecessary ingredients. So my homemade energy drink is a compromise for the kids and the me. They loved the citrus flavor and the sweetness from the agave syrup and I love that it's really healthy.

The bright orange comes from the B100 complex vitamins that I added, but this could easily be skipped. However, adding the B vitamins help keep you energized among dozens of other amazing things like help with stress, fights aging, helps with depression and memory loss and so much more.

I love making this drink, it really is super simple and takes less time than running into the store to grab an energy drink. Plus there are no crazy chemical, unknown ingredients, and most importantly...it tastes great. So, next time you are hitting the gym or the kids are playing hard, fill up a sports bottle with ice and serve up this homemade energy drink. Your family will thank you! Promise!
