Whether you’ve just exercised, been working in the hot sun, or are simply thirsty, you need more electrolytes! These essential minerals are the key to achieving hydration. While plain water is good, you want to drink something like my best juice for electrolytes to bring in those important components. This recipe is as tasty as it is hydrating, so let’s give it a try!

The Details: Electrolyte Yourself!
Having enough electrolytes in your system is key to the proper function of a myriad of processes from muscle contraction (hello heart) to blood clotting. Both honeydew melon and young coconut water are excellent sources of these key minerals.
Honeydew is rich in electrolytes like magnesium, calcium, potassium, and sodium. Bonus is that this melon and its seeds (juice those seeds!) have high concentrations of antioxidants like vitamins C and A.
Fresh coconut water from young coconuts also contains the electrolytes magnesium, potassium, and calcium. Studies suggest coconut water may be better at rehydrating the body than plain water. Coconut water may also lower cholesterol and blood pressure, as well as reduce the occurrence of kidney stones.
Lemon juice gets in the electrolyte game with sodium, potassium, calcium, and magnesium, so adding it to this already mineral-rich juice recipe makes it even better. Not to mention I love adding lemon or lime to most juices for an extra tasty zip!
How to Crack a Young Coconut Easily
Cracking coconuts can be challenging. I use a specialized tool called the Fanatu Coconut Opener to make the task safer and easier. Even with this method, you might get some fibers in the water so pour it through a sieve or cheesecloth before drinking.
Once you’ve drained the water, don’t forget to harvest the soft coconut meat inside! It’s tasty and nutritious. Just use a spoon to scrape it out and enjoy!
This is a Great Melon Juicer
I made the Honeydew Drop using the Kuvings REVO830 juicer. This machine makes a great melon juicer and it can do a whole lot more!
- Minimal Chopping
- Dual-Feed Produce Hopper
- Makes Smoothies, Nice Cream, and Nut Milk
- Super Quiet Operation
- Ability to Run Non-Stop for 45 Minutes
- 15-Year Warranty
- Can Clog on Pineapple and Soft Fruits
- Doesn't Fit Under Some Cabinets
- Requires Consistent Feeding
The Kuvings REVO830 is a cold press juicer that is also really fast, thanks to its dual-feed produce hopper. This feature significantly reduces prep time by eliminating the need to chop most ingredients. Long produce like cucumbers, carrots, greens, and celery go right into the vertical cut chute. Large items such as beets, oranges, lemons, and apples go in whole into the 3/5″ auto-cut hopper. If it fits, no need to chop!
The REVO830 not only makes great juice fast. It also does nut milk, sorbets, smoothies, and nice cream. It comes equipped with a powerful upgraded motor that is very quiet and lets you run non-stop for up to 45 minutes.
The entire machine is backed by a fantastic 15-year warranty. I absolutely recommend the Kuvings REVO830 for any home juicer. It’s one of my main juicers, and I love it!
