Planning any road trip is as time-consuming as any full-time job—including the most important parts like planning where to stop, where to eat and what to do. If it is just you or the entire family, there are a set of essentials that you might think about adding to your trip to make it better.

Pickle Juice

This energy drink-looking bottle from The Pickle Juice® Company has been used by athletes as a secret weapon to prevent muscle cramps. But what about adding these to your travel bag to have a smooth muscle cramp free road tripSounds intriguing right? I did put it to the test on a recent 5-hour trip to Louisville from Chicago. When I was reaching just about the third hour of the trip, I took a sip of pickle juice and like magic a few minutes later cramp gone. So I got a couple bottles left and for sure I’ll make sure there one of them this summer for a couple hiking trips I’m doing.
