Kudos for making your own mix. I went down this rabbit hole not long ago. I would mention (without confirming) that this concentration of sucrose sounds like it could be dehydrating. I’ll also give a shout out to a local athlete’s blog who did makes his own mix of your interested in more info. (https://www.codybeals.com/2013/06/endurance-eats-homebrew-sport-drink/)
I recall combining Maltodextrin & Fructose at a ratio of 2:1 being recommended in the forums.
So for a 60 gram Carb bottle it would be 40 grams of Maltordextrin and 20 grams of Fructose.
Perhaps you could try that and see how it feels!
I do something similar.
20g of Kool-Aid or any juice powder mix from the supermarket (100% sucrose)
80-100g of table sugar
A pinch of table salt.
Hasn’t failed me yet. No need to make it complicated, or expensive.
Sweet! Lots of great discussion and recipes in this thread:
I also experimented until finding my perfect mix. Assuming a hard ride where I am burning lots of glycogen, (Per 500 mL bottle an hour) my mix is 1 cup orange juice, 2 scoops of maltodextrin, and one 750mg effervescent salt tablet from precision hydration. Tastes like orange creamsicle popsicle. 90gr carbs.
