I haven't been actively catholic for a while, but I don't think there is any real prohibition against using something like gatorade for baptisms, assuming it was properly blessed.

Incorrect in two ways. Water does not need to be blessed for baptism, any ordinary water will do, from holy water to dirty water from a muddy puddle. However, it must have the species of water, so it must not be wine, milk, or gatorade.

Gatorade is like 94% water, probably more water than most 'dirty water from a muddy puddle'.

steam is 100% made out of the same material as water, still not of the species water. nor ice. now imagine some sect attempts to baptize with steam and/or ice, just to demonstrate they are "smart" to find "loophole" in the CIC :-)
