Gatorade - how long in the fridge?

[ny biker]

I buy the big 64oz bottles of Gatorade and use them to fill my water bottle. Since I don't ride every day, it sometimes takes a few weeks to use one bottle.

Yes, last year I used the 64 oz bottles and it would usually take me several weeks to finish them off, and they were fine.

I was expecting the one in the fridge now to have something growing in it*, so I was surprised when it seemed fine.

As for whether gatorade is ever "good," it's what they serve at centuries and other organized rides, so it's what I use. It's just a fast way to get sugar in me during long rides.

* I know, if you're expecting something to be growing in it, then why is it there to begin with? Because I live alone and I don't cook, so there is lots of extra room in my refrigerator. So half-empty bottles of things that don't develop a bad smell tend to sit forgotten in the back.

I didn't notice mine until I went to pour it - just be careful!
