Amazon Basic Care Electrolyte Powder Packets, Strawberry Lemonade, 6 Count (Pack of 1)

I’ve used this a lot and it works well! The hydration really hits you good and you will definitely feel better if you aren’t feeling too good. I personally wasn’t too keen on the taste when I first got it but as you get used to it it taste good for the quality. It mixes well you can use it in anything.

It's not weight loss item. It is hydrating electrolytes. It tastes great & works really good. Flavor is great, too!

If you’re like me, you have recently been upset by the name brand’s shrinkflation change to 8 packets (1 per 8oz water) versus the previous 6 packets (1 per 6oz water). I saw these, and decided it was time to try the generic: the name brand was now more money for even less, so why bother with it? First off: it does NOT taste the same. However, this is NOT a bad thing. Let’s be honest: the name brand tasted like someone tried to make strawberry lemonade flavor without having ever actually had strawberry lemonade. It’s like how grape candy tastes: you associate it with that flavor, but if you had both the fake and real flavor back-to-back, you’d be so shocked by the difference that you’d have a mini existential crisis about how easily our taste buds can be tricked. The flavor of Amazon’s equivalent is FAR closer to actual strawberry lemonade. You can TASTE a sourness of lemon in it, unlike the name brand. Makes you do that tiny pucker interaction to the mild tartness after drinking, just like real lemonade! Not overly sour, either. Amazon’s is more transparent, I’ve noticed, but not sure if that means anything in the long run other than a mere aesthetic difference. Now, the technical stuff: the comparison is based off the last 6-pack box I have of the name brand, so these will be identical in serving size (see photo). The ingredients are almost entirely identical, other than Amazon Basic’s having sodium citrate before the natural flavors (don’t quote me, but I believe the order indicates how much of the ingredient is in something: highest to lowest?). Amazon Basics’ is 10 calories less (50 vs 60), 1% less total carbs (12g/4% vs 15g/5%). Amazon’s has slightly more chloride (590mg vs 570mg, both are still considered 25% of Daily Value). In short: if you’re looking for more bang for your buck, virtually identical ingredients to the name-brand, and don’t mind a change in flavor? This is 100% worth the buy. (Only taking a star off because I became pretty used to the name brand flavor and now I kinda miss it, so it’s not a 1-to-1 dupe, but pretty close!!)

These are nice to put in your bag and go. They mix well. The flavor is nice. It’s a tad sweet, but honestly I prefer that. It’s a good price for a small box. It’d only be more cost effective if you bought them in bulk

I have been a fan of Ultima for years, but decided to try this. It's very sweet comparatively and has quite a bit of sodium. 50 calories vs 0 is also a consideration. It's not bad but I am not a fan.

Fantastic for what it is, and the price. Doesn't taste as weird and chemical as gatorade. It's not great, but it's overall very mild, which is kind of nice given how strong most electrolytes tatste. Every other electrolyte mix is half the strength of liquid IV, so if you actually need the electrolytes, I cannot reccomend this, but otherwise it's one of the nicer options.

I like having these on hand. They make you have a nice sense of security. They help replace your electrolytes if they are off balance. I believe they work very well.

A bit sweet for my taste, other than that issue was good
