Some suggestions......
* You can buy Pedialyte (try the generic stuff at KMart, WalMart, etc.)
and freeze it in ice cube trays. Then store in a Zip-lock. It will last
for a few weeks that way.
* Pedialyte (and the generics) are also available in 8 oz. bottles. You
may have to buy a 4-pack but they usually have a really long expiration
date. I freeze those in ice cube trays also.
* I think you can also get Pedialyte in powder form and mix as much as
you need, but I've never used it.
I always keep plain Pedialyte on hand here. I think Pedialyte is much
better to use than Gatorade.
