HYDRANTHydrate, Individual Hydration Electrolyte Powder Stick Packets with No Artificial Sweeteners, Colors, or Fillers (Blood Orange, 30 Pack)

Drinking the watermelon right now and it’s so refreshing. Not salty at all. Just the right amount of sweetness and no weird after taste. It’s actually curing my headache. Love this stuff. Will be purchasing more once I make my way through my sample pack!

I've been struggling to stay hydrated, not for lack of trying. I've had Liquid IV recommended to me a thousand times, but I cannot stand the taste of anything other than real sugar. I'm extremely sensitive to it.So when I went looking for a stevia-free alternative and chanced upon Hydrant, I had to laugh. I didn't need to squint through ingredients to see if it had stevia or sucralose. It says right on the package, NO STEVIA. Of course, I checked the ingredients anyway, and then refused to believe it wasn't too good to be true until I actually got these in the mail.I've now ordered a heinous amount of several flavors. It's good stuff, period. Hydrant is running promos at the Bullseye Box Store for cheaper than elsewhere, sometimes, but I've gotten lucky and found the 30 count for under $20 occasionally on Amazon.So far I've tried the lime, Raspberry Lemonade Energy, and grapefruit. The raspberry lemonade is by far my favorite, but because it does have caffeine, I tend to drink it when I wake up and switch to lime later in the day. The caffeine comes from green tea and while I didn't think it made a difference, it does keep me up if I drink it after 9 pm. So it has a punch, even if it doesn't give the same jolt that coffee does.The lime is my go-to when I don't need energy or want to conserve the more-costly raspberry lemonade. One stick in the pack I got was hardened and had to be tossed, but so far the rest have been okay. It tastes like lime and dissolves great in a bottle of water. The taste is sour and strong and from what I can tell, it does the trick for hydration.I've also tried the grapefruit and it tastes like grapefruit.All three have been strong flavors. Weirdly, the grapefruit 30-pack I got through Amazon arrived with the shipping label slapped on the outside of the bag itself... But it did survive transit at least.I probably wouldn't pay $30 for 30, but at least one flavor always seems to be on sale. For anyone with sucralose/stevia/aspartame sensitivity like me, it passes the test. Great stuff.

Hydrant is awesome! My doctor suggested I get an electrolyte drink mix, but I didn't want something super sweet just because of my personal preference. I also don't like the flavor of stevia and fake sweetener, so I wanted something with real sugar but just a little to cover up the salty flavor. After looking for a while I settled on Hydrant, and it's perfect! Exactly what I wanted - I put a packet in my 32oz water bottle and it just makes it slightly flavored and sweet enough to cover up the salty taste of electrolytes. I can really feel the difference it makes in hydrating me compared to plain water. The only thing is I wish it was cheaper, so I'm still deciding if I want to repurchase or if I'll buy cheap plain electrolytes and try to cover it up with a some sort of flavoring.

I have a prescription that has dry mouth and dehydration as common side effects, and a 2nd prescription that has, well, dry mouth and dehydration as common side effects. Needless to say, I really needed something to help stay hydrated on a daily basis. I have tried a lot of the products out there (Nuun, Kiss My Keto, DripDrop, Hydrasurge, Ultima, and just the standard Gatorade, Powerade, etc.). I find that the best in terms of actually working well to combat my dehydration are Hydrant and Nuun, though Hydrant has half the sodium, so I'd put it to the top of the list. Other than their Grapefruit flavor, which smells awful and has an unpleasant taste, I've found the other flavors like lime to be very mild, like squeezing a single lime into a liter of water, definitely easy to drink, if not particularly flavorful. But in terms of its ability to combat dehydration, I have found nothing better.

Would give it a 5, mixes well, good for hydration, taste is ok, but....getting ripped off by this company, 4-5 packets each package are petrified, hard as a rock and un-usable. Price is not cheap either, Co. needs to be better on quality control, or better yet, come up with better packaging.

Buyer Beware! The new formula of this hydration mix is awful, and the company added monk fruit without warning anyone. The old flavor was fantastic, but now it's going to be disgustingly sweet with the added monk fruit. I will never purchase this mix again unless they revert to the original formula. Not only did they make these changes without informing customers, but they also refuse to accept returns on unopened packages, leaving me out $40 for a product I can't even use. I'm extremely frustrated and want a refund for this deceptive and unappetizing change.

Hydrant Hydration has a subtle taste and has minimal ingredients which I really like. I have tried other hydration packets such as Liquid IV which was very overpowering in taste and had to be diluted quite a bit to be drinkable. For someone who is not a big water drinker, the subtle taste these flavors add to the water make it a great drink as a normal daily option and especially when working out. My favorite flavor is Blood Orange but I ordered the variety pack to sample the Fruit Punch and Lemon Lime and was not disappointed with either of these flavors either. It's just enough flavor to encourage me to drink more water daily. Highly recommend.
