Liquid I.V.

Burning Man water gear

Salt and sugar for the hours you spend sweating in a costume.

Why it's on the list

Water is the base, and it is not the whole story after a day of building or dancing in full sun. We keep packets because a little salt in the afternoon jug heads off the headache this desert is good at. Start earlier than thirst, including the drive in.

How we use it

Start earlier than you think, including the drive in. Variety packs keep you from hating a single flavor by Friday. They are sweet. If that bothers you, split a packet across a larger bottle.

Heads up

Read the sodium if you are watching salt for a medical reason. This is a drink mix, not medical advice.
