Hey Schultz, Sugar will work just fine, if the magic elixir that you call Gatorade is hardly anything other than water+HFCS. Powdered sugar with water will hit the blood stream in no time, working as good as your elixir or even better...

Googled to find that Gatorade is a sports drink... usually a highly priced lowly formula synthetic drink...

Instead, be creative - Make a bottle of Lemonade with sugar to your taste and Sip some cool Lemonade rather than just sugar + water.. Wotsay?

Wikipedia says originally Gatorade did not contain HFCS...
Quote:
The original Gatorade contained water, sucrose (table sugar) and glucose-fructose syrups, citric acid, fish oil, sodium chloride (table salt), sodium citrate, monopotassium phosphate,and flavoring/coloring ingredients.
