The content creator, who has more than 323,000 followers on the video-sharing platform, divulged the list of simple ingredients needed while making the mocktail.
She called the creation one of her favorite drinks for “extra hydration.”
Gatorade drinks contain five electrolytes.
In the clip, which has so far been viewed 159,000 times, Ella began: “Let’s make nature’s Gatorade.”
‘This is one of my favorite drinks to make just to sip on for extra hydration, but also to make a fun little mocktail. And a mocktail is always better in a wine glass.
The social media star then explained how to create the concoction, starting by adding ice to a glass.
She then used a handheld juicer to squeeze half a lemon, lime and orange “to get all those electrolytes.”
Next, the content creator sprinkled Redmond Real Salt, from her colorful Dusen Dusen salt mill, “to get those minerals.”
‘Top that up with some coconut water. That will give us more electrolytes and hydration,” Ella explained.
‘I’ve been loving adding cranberry juice to this. Can help maintain a healthy gut.’
The health expert then finished by completing the drink with sparkling water, a slice of orange as a decorative garnish, and a few drops of digestive bitters; the latter, as she explained in her caption, were “optional.”

According health line‘Electrolytes are minerals that carry an electrical charge.
‘They are found in blood, urine and sweat and are vital for specific processes that keep the body functioning as it should.
‘Electrolytes are essential for keeping the nervous system and muscles functioning.
“They also ensure your body’s internal environment is optimal by keeping you hydrated and helping to regulate your internal pH.”
