Are you going cuckoo for coconut water? Well, it's time to shake it off, because coconut water is not the only diva in the hydration concert. There are other low-key vocalists hitting electrolyte high notes, helping your muscles to shake it off after a sweat-drenched summer workout.

Electrolytes are these nifty minerals that control the VIP curtains in your body, dictating nerve functions, regulating muscle operations, and most importantly, replenishing your body’s hydration VIP area. And just because king coconut has a high-stakes game with potassium, don't think for a second it's monopoly in electrolytes. Enter the underdogs: milk (surprise, surprise!), juice, smoothies, and yes, even broths.

Now, we know what you're thinking - milk? As in, 'got milk?' Well, it might not be the first choice when your body's acting like a sauna, but turn a blind eye and you miss out on a hydration wonder-kid. Calcium, potassium, magnesium, and sodium - milk's got these hydration heroes by bucket loads. Throw in a sprinkle of cocoa powder and boom - badass polyphenols enter the mix. Go ahead, give soy milk a shot if dairy ain't your thing.

Moving on, let's talk juices. Not just any juice, we're eyeing the 100% orange and the refreshing battalion that includes tomato, watermelon, carrot, and beet. Vitamins, minerals, antioxidants - it's a hydration fiesta, no coconut welcome.

And if you’re one to create magic in your blender, smoothies are your jam. Bananas for potassium, Greek yogurt for calcium, and nut proteins like peanut butter - you've created yourself an electrolyte cocktail.

Surprising our list is broth. Yes, you heard that right! Ever thought a savory broth could be a hydration powerhouse? Check this out - potassium, sodium, and the bonus round - collagen! Now you’re hydrating and looking good, double win!

So, next time you’re reaching for that coconut water, remember, hydration's got a new band, and coconut’s no longer the lead vocalist.
