HydroMATE Electrolytes Powder Drink Mix Packets Hydration Accelerator Low Sugar Low Calorie Rapid Party Relief Recovery Plus Vitamin C Cotton Candy Flavor 16 Sticks

I was still.......surprised.The product page says so:"Includes Two Water Flavors Pink Cotton Candy and Blue Cotton Candy "...but I figured they'd taste about the same.Nope.First, I did the exact same thing for each flavor to create a 16 ounce drink.Here's what I did:The package suggests a stick pack of this mixed with 16 ounces of water.I took a NOT shaker bottle with a 17 ounce capacity, poured 16 ounces of cold water in it and poured one stick pack of this over the water; capped the bottle and shook it.After 30 seconds or less of shaking the bottle, this mixed well and stayed mixed.The pink makes a very light blush pink colored drink.The blue makes a, you guessed it, very light blue colored drink.I did a search on "what does cotton candy taste like".I'm not sure that the flavors I experienced matched what the search said...(I do very low carb/no sugar and haven't had cotton candy for literally decades).To me, the pink was cheery, sweet and vanilla and something else like tasting.The intensity of flavor was maybe a 5.5 on a 10 scale.The intensity of sweet was maybe a 5.5 - 6 on that same scale.The blue was tart, nothing like the pink and not as sweet.The intensity of flavor was, again, maybe a 5.5 on a 10 scale.The intensity of sweet was maybe a 5 on that same scale.I like both of these and really depend on electroylyte drinks.These will be gone before I know it!Glad I ordered.I hope this review has been helpful and enables you to make an informed purchase decision.I rarely give an overall 5 star rating.

These do a great job at rehydrating. Used it after a long day of working outside in the sun, and it brought be back to normal more then just drinking water would. I give the 'pink' flavor 3 stars, it's plain but also has a weird aftertaste. 5 stars to the blue flavor, has a more cottoncandy type flavor without the aftertaste, so overall have to give it 4 stars.

Needed something for work in the morning and saw this. The taste is very close to the listed flavor and of course it's in single packets so you can take them on the go and pop them in a bottle of water.

You definitely have to shake the powder for 10 seconds to fully dissolve like it says in the instructions! Both flavors were fun and taste like cotton candy. I love that it's low in sugar too but I feel like the flavor could be a bit better and that's why I gave it a 4 out of 5. I personally prefer a lighter taste.

They're a blessing for my busy lifestyle and I love being able to just toss a packet in my bag and go.One thing that really impressed me was how easily they dissolve in cold water. No more annoying clumps or residue! And the cotton candy flavor and scent are pretty spot on. I will say, it's a bit on the sweeter side, but overall, I enjoy the taste once I water it down.As someone who follows a keto diet and doesn't drink alcohol, I appreciate that it's low calorie and low carb. And it definitely helps with hydration, recovery, and energy. Plus, I've been #2monthssober and this has been a great alternative for a fun and tasty drink.However, I did notice a few downsides. It's definitely too sweet for some people's taste and the sugar content is higher than I would like for a health product, it's still keto friendly. I do notice a burst of energy about an hour or so after drinking this.

This is an interesting flavor, since cotton candy is just "sugar", but I really do think it meets what it says on the wrapper. The individually sealed drink mixes are easy to open but secure, and don't feel like they would open up in a backpack. I appreciate that the serving fully dissolved in a pint of water leaving no crunchy residue or extras, so that's always appreciated. My friends really love the flavor, but it's a bit too sweet for me. If you like you electolytes to be a bit sweeter, this is likely something you'll dig!

Used this in the morning after drinking and it tasted well and made me feel slightly better

I like the convenience of the individual packets which makes it easy to just throw in your bag or take along for travel. The powder dissolved easily in cold water. I used a shaker bottle for mine, but feel like it would dissolve fine just stirring into a cup too. The pink cotton candy was my favorite and it seemed a little sweeter than the blue one. I have used the Liquid IV brand in the past, which is a similar concept to this product, and liked this cotton candy flavor of this product much more. At only 10 calories a pop, it seems like an easy way to hydrate and goes down smoothly. I had one of these the morning after "overdoing" my food and drink and it seemed to make me feel a bit better straightaway. At a little over $1 per packet, it is definitely something that I will use as needed, but feel like it is worth it.
