Round #3 - Mango Goo

Round #3 - Mango Goo

The recipe:

1  tbsp of Osmo mango, dissolved in mere drops of water  (for electrolytes and taste)
1/4 c brown rice syrup (for maltose & glucose)
1 tbsp agave nectar (for fructose)


Taste:
I think I should have used the whole packet of Osmo, which I think is about 2 tbsp.  You can’t really taste the mango at all.  I guess it’ll have some electrolytes though.


Ease of Use:
I think this’ll be better than the explosion of lemon-lime goo.  First of all, I made a smaller batch so the flask isn’t so full.  Then I put as little water as possible to dissolve the Osmo and put it in the microwave to warm it up so it dissolved faster.


Performance:
I used it on a 54-mile ride including two climbs up Signal Mountain.  It worked out pretty well!  At least nothing bad happened. :)
