It's not nonexistent and it's clear as day that these comments exist. obviously because his voice is distinct and unique compared to others there is always going to be people that don't like it and say it in hopes that he stops. Though I do disagree with a lot of those his voice grew on me and I oddly enjoy it, to me he just sounds happy all the time.

    On the go, simplified recipe I use:
    - Fill water bottle
    - Add Lemon or Lime juice (I get the large cheap bottles of it), freshly squeezed would be nicer but trying to reduce time and had a lot of them go bad.
    - Pink Himalayan sea salt (two turns)
    Shake it up.
    This is what I make for my tennis matches. If I need a boost beforehand, I'll get caffine through a pre-workout, energy drink, or espresso. If I'm picking up a pre-workout, I'll consider getting a gatorade too if I didn't have time to make my own, or just for convenience.
    Lemon and lime are good sources of electrolytes. I would go with those and skip the orange juice, since the honey has already added sugar.
