Gatorade has officially announced its first organic product-- G Organic, which will be available in select markets in the fall.

G Organic is USDA-certified organic and it's made with just seven ingredients (water, organic cane sugar, citric acid, organic natural flavor, sea salt, sodium citrate, and potassium chloride), according to a company release. It will be available in three flavors: lemon, strawberry, and mixed berry.

Each serving has 30 grams of carbohydrates “to stimulate rapid fluid absorption and fuel the active body,” and 230 milligrams of sodium and 65 milligrams of potassium “to help replace what is lost in sweat.” A 12-ounce serving of original Gatorade has 80 calories, 21 grams of carbohydrates and 160 milligrams of sodium.
