Review on πŸ’ Ultima Hydrating Electrolyte Powder: Cherry Pomegranate Flavor | 30 Servings, 3.6 oz by Debbie Thomas

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Sweeteners may be "natural " but they're still LOTS of them

The theory is to combine several different sweeteners to Achieving the best flavor profile is a great idea. In practice, this product overdoes A LOT of sweeteners to the point that I find it to be at least four times sweeter than it should be. To make it drinkable I had to mix it in half and add lemon juice to add a flavor other than the sickening sweetness. There are probably people who will love this taste, but it would be 10 times better if they just removed 75% of the sweetener. I really don't understand why they think all these drinks have to taste like a plate full of sugar (with a little stevia to make it even better), but SOMEONE has to figure out that there's a much bigger market for drinks. that contain little or NO sweeteners. I approve of trying to make a product without the usual shake of artificial sweeteners, but what's the point of doing something that makes whole-sugar sports drinks downright acidic by comparison? If I made this drink with a full serving instead of half and didn't add anything, it would be really impossible to drink.

Pros
  • Clean ingredients, zero calories, zero sugar, plant-based colors and flavors
Cons
  • Could have chosen a newer model
