treating lows while backpacking

In a month or so I am going to go on a week-long backpacking trip in the mountains. I have to carry all my supplies for diabetes on my back. Obviously, saving weight is a major issue, so I was wondering what would be the lightest method of carrying a substantial amount of low blood sugar treatment. I was thinking about Kool Aid powder or something that I could mix with water. I have also considered energy gels or cubes but they seem pretty heavy. What do you think woul be the best and lightest way?

Thanks
