Before disaster strikes, you need to make sure that your survival pantry or stockpile includes a variety of emergency drinks. (h/t to SurvivalFrog.com)
Aside from supporting proper hydration, your emergency drink should also be able to provide you with energy, nutrients and comfort when things go south.
Some beverages, like organic non-fat milk powder or drink mixes, can also be used for bartering in a long-term survival scenario.
Water
Water, which is essential for hydration, is a crucial supply for your beverage prepping pantry. After all, many prepper “beverages” and survival foods must be reconstituted with water before you can consume them.
For basic hydration, sanitation and cooking needs, you need at least one gallon of water per person per day. Store enough water so your family has enough if you’re worried about a long-term survival scenario.
Coffee
Stock up on coffee if you need a cup of joe every morning. Even if you don’t drink coffee, you can use it for bartering in a post-SHTF world.
If storage space is an issue and you don’t want to clutter your stockroom with cans of whole bean coffee and a coffee grinder, buy ground coffee and instant coffee. (Related: SHTF bartering must-haves: 13 Things that will be in demand after an EMP attack.)
Tea
Depending on the type you choose, tea can also be used as a source of caffeine and energy like coffee.
If you prefer energizing teas, choose black tea or green tea. For a calming cup of tea, buy an herbal tea like chamomile, which has soothing properties and can help promote relaxation during stressful survival events.
Powdered milk
Milk is a great source of calcium, protein and B-vitamins. This beverage is also versatile and can be used for drinking or baking.
However, it is also one of the first things to spoil when the power goes out.
Unless you have a dairy cow on your homestead, you’re better off having an ample supply of powdered milk. Powdered milk can last years, and you can use it to make dairy products like butter, yogurt, sour cream and cream cheese.
Powdered milk is also great for creamy sauces, dips and gravies.
Full of essential nutrients, organic milk is one of the world’s most nutritious beverages. This is especially true when milk comes from healthy cows raised under strict organic standards because they provide milk without toxic hormones or genetically modified organisms (GMOs) often found in conventional milk products.
But because fresh milk spoils quickly, it can be very difficult to store long-term in case of a food emergency. Fortunately, organic milk can be dried to significantly extend its longer shelf life.
Versatile, shelf-stable and cost-effective, Groovy Bee Organic Non-Fat Milk Powder is a highly nutritious beverage that belongs in your survival pantry.
This high-quality lab-verified milk powder can easily increase your daily intake of calcium, potassium, protein and other nutrients in any situation. Just add water to make a convenient healthy beverage or incorporate it into your other recipes for a nutritional upgrade.
Groovy Bee Organic Non-Fat Milk Powder is sourced from healthy cows that are ethically raised without the use of growth hormones, antibiotics or pesticides. It contains no added gluten or GMOs.
Groovy Bee Organic Non-Fat Milk Powder is also extensively lab-tested for glyphosate, heavy metals and microbiology. It is also non-China, certified Kosher and organic.
For a no-fuss way to enjoy organic non-fat milk powder, add four tablespoons of premium Organic Non-Fat Milk Powder to a glass of hot water. Stir well and drink it like regular milk.
