Powder Gatorade Calories Intake

I use a mix of Powder Gatorade and Infinit Nutrition, and I am trying to figure out how many calories am I taking. I mix 1 scoop of Infinit and 1 of Gatorade on a 24 oz bottle. On the Infinit I know, but on the Gatorade it says:

Nutrition Facts
Serving size 1 2/3 Tbsp (23g)
Makes about 12 fl oz
Amount per serving Calories 80

…and on the mixing instructions
To make Gatorade Mix
12 Fl Oz 1/3 Scoop

So if 1/3 Scoop is right for 12 Fl Oz, and the Serving size is 12 fl oz with 80 calories…then a full scope would be equivalent to 240 calories? Looks like a lot of calories for 1 scoop of powder Gatorade

I use the powdered gatorade as well. But I only use about 1/2 scoop for a 24oz bottle and nothing else added.

A full scoop for 24oz is way too sweet! When it’s hot out and I know I’ll be drinking more fluids I’ll even cut it back to 1/3 scoop.
