Best Drink While Playing Hockey?

[eyetest is useless]

Can't post about liking sugarless drinks anywhere without getting lectured about artificial sweeteners. Why not lecture the guys who drink beer or the guy who posted about drinking vodka instead?

I like the taste of it. End of story.

I'd imagine people drinking beer are aware that it's not exactly good for them, while there's bound to be a healthy amount that see no sugar as a positive

I'm surprised not one person drinks gatorade straight up. I do, and don't the pros? Is there something wrong with this?

I drink a mix of 50% tap water, 30% melted ice from a rink, 15% evian bottled water, and 5% tears from a moose

I used to drink gatorade during/after game but I realized it's just junk pretty much and not really needed at the level we play at. It's just extra sugar/calories. I just do water now. Oh, and throw in a moose tear or two.

Athletes drink it diluted to like 1/5th, I've tried it.
No one drinks gatorade straight that's pure marketing.
