When you become a prepper, one of your main goals is to ensure that your family has enough supplies to get through a long-term emergency scenario, like a power outage that lasts several days or weeks or a global pandemic that disrupts normal life.
This means stocking up on food with a long shelf life, like grains and canned goods.
Your survival stockpile should also include enough water for cleaning, cooking and drinking, along with beverages like coffee, coconut water and milk to ensure that you stay hydrated. (h/t to IdyllicPursuit.com)
Beverages to stock up on before disaster strikes
Consider these important factors when choosing survival food and beverages to stock up on:
- Availability
- Nutritional value
- Shelf life
- Storage requirements
By considering these factors, you can ensure that you have a well-rounded and sustainable food and beverage supply when SHTF.
Staying hydrated is important, especially in survival situations. While certain foods, like fruits or vegetables, can provide some of the water that your body needs, it's not enough to keep you hydrated when SHTF.
That's why it's important to have water and other beverages in your survival stockpile.
Water: A survival essential
Water is crucial for your survival stockpile. You don't just need water for cooking and drinking, you also need to have enough for cleaning and other tasks.
Make sure that you have enough water in your stockpile by storing at least one gallon of water per person per day for both drinking and sanitation purposes. You also need to stock up on water for any pets that you have.
Tea and coffee
Aside from clean drinking water, having some comfort drinks like coffee and tea can provide a morale boost in survival situations. These beverages can help provide a sense of normalcy and comfort, and they also offer some benefits.
For example, coffee provides essential calories for energy and sustenance.
To keep your tea and coffee fresh and flavorful for a long time, store them in airtight containers in a cool, dark area in your stockroom.
Other survival beverage options include coconut water or coconut milk and non-fat milk powder. (Related: HRS SOLUTIONS: Stock up on organic non-fat milk powder, a long-lasting source of essential nutrients.)
Where to get quality survival drinks for your stockpile
The Health Ranger Store is committed to helping you prepare your survival stockpile with high-quality beverages that you will need in an emergency so we offer several options like Organic Hand-Roasted Whole Bean Coffee and Organic Non-Fat Milk Powder.
To help residents of the Gayo region gain a steady income from Fair Trade coffee, the Permata Gayo co-op created our 100% Organic Hand-Roasted Whole Bean Coffee (Sumatra), which is marked by sweet and earthy flavors.
It is a medium roast with a full-bodied taste and a cherry aroma. Today, both devoted and casual coffee drinkers around the world enjoy our organic Sumatran coffee blend.
With its impressive nutrient profile, coconut milk is one of the healthiest plant-based dairy alternatives on the market. Groovy Bee® Organic Coconut Milk Powder is carefully extracted from the fruit pulp of fresh coconuts grown under strict organic standards by our trusted suppliers.
Rest assured that our premium organic coconut powder contains no artificial sweeteners, flavors or colors. Instead, it is slightly sweetened with organic rice maltodextrin.
You can also hydrate with coconut water powder, a natural isotonic beverage that can replenish lost electrolytes and help you maintain optimal fluid balance. Organic Coconut Water Powder from the Health Ranger Store is packed with important essential nutrients and electrolytes, such as sodium, calcium, potassium and magnesium, which support a healthy metabolism and proper hydration.
Derived from young, green coconuts grown under strict organic standards, Health Ranger Select Organic Coconut Water Powder delivers all the essential nutrients found in coconut water in a convenient powder form.
The Health Ranger Store also offers Organic Non-Fat Milk Powder, an excellent alternative to store-bought organic milk because it gives the milk a much longer shelf life and portability. This tasty and healthy milk powder retains its original nutritional content since the process of removing the fat doesn't take away the beneficial nutrients in whole milk.
Organic Non-Fat Milk Powder is a convenient milk powder that doesn't require refrigeration and can easily be reconstituted with water at any time.
Versatile, shelf-stable and highly nutritious, Health Ranger Select Organic Non-Fat Milk Powder is sourced from premium healthy cows that are ethically raised without the use of antibiotics, bovine growth hormones, GMOs or synthetic substances. This ensures that they provide only the best milk with optimal nutritional content.
Our non-fat milk powder is non-China and is certified Kosher and organic. It also contains no added gluten or GMOs and is extensively lab-tested for glyphosate, heavy metals and microbiology.
