Flavour Ideas

To add more variety here are a few suggestions:

The unflavoured product can be flavoured using Vitaflo FlavourPac sachets, available in blackcurrant, lemon, orange, raspberry and tropical fruits.

Simply add ½ to 1 flavour sachet to the unflavoured product and make up as illustrated. To give a stronger fruitier flavour, permitted cordial or fruit juice can be added to the already flavoured product giving you a choice of taste. e.g. raspberry gel with blackcurrant or orange gel with tropical fruits.

For best results the product should be freshly prepared and when possible used immediately. However if necessary store in a refrigerator and use within 24 hours -

re-shake before use.

IMPORTANT - Water or permitted drink should be taken with the gel or drink
