Not too much, just right

• Familiarity: I've used it several times

A great alternative to sports drinks when you just want a light flavor vs plain old H2O. I have been enjoying the Lemon Tea this winter and is much more pleasant than I expected. Not too sweet and very easy to mix with just a few stirs or shakes in the bottle. I think this would be a great option to mix in with filtered/boiled water when backpacking/fishing as it has worked great from the tap and/or when melting snow this winter. Easy going flavor with some additional nutritional value that doesn't taste like someone dumped a Fun Dip into your bottle.

Tasty healthy hydration power!

• Familiarity: I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions

I took this and mixed it into a about 16oz of water on a day hike when i would normally take about double the amount of water. I felt like adding the mix to my water allowed me to go further without needing as much. It tasted pretty dang good too. I also like that the ingredients list is really short and not full of things that you find in gateraid or other off the shelf sports drinks.

Bottom-line
I would totally take this on a backpacking trip or recommend it to my friends.

Tastefully nude

Sounds boring but GU's tastefully nude is my new favorite. If you do back to back rides / runs you know you need a hydration drink but you don't always want to taste them. After three days of riding in hotter than normal temps when my stomach get's super sensitive to any flavor - no flavor was the ticket!
