My Go To electrolyte

Never go out without my bottles loaded with Scratch. Keeps me hydrated and keeps me from bonking in the hot Florida climate. Flavors are subtle and do not upset my stomach.

Thank you for your feedback.

Love this product!

I love the Scratch Labs lemon lime. Nice clean flavor and not a syrupy as some others. Works for me.

Thank you for your feedback.

The Best!

I have tried two flavors (lemon-limes and macha green tea with lemons). Both are good. I especially like the macha green tea with lemons. The Skratch product has a significant amount of sodium, which I prefer. I have used Scratch hydration for several years and never had any gastrointestinal issues. The flavors are not too sweet and the servings can be cut in half, and are still effective.

Thank you for your feedback.

great taste. not too overpoweringly sweet. Usually I go half H2O and half gatorade, but I think skratch is my new method.

My go to mix for long rides

After having cramps around 60 to 70 miles into century rides this year drinking a well known bottled sports drink this year, I started looking for something that would help - tried Skratch Labs Exercise Hydration Mix and viola, the cramps were gone! Have done about 10 100 rides since converting this year and still no problems. Two bottles on the frame, and two on the saddle bottle holder get's the job done unless it's hot out then I need some more. The flavor is light and the color is light too so it won't stain kit if you spill, at least not the lemonlime which is what I use. Highly recommended for longer rides where electrolyte replacement is important.

Thank you for your feedback.

Best Hydration on the Market!!

Use for Half and Full IM Triathlons and it is the only product that I don't get tired of drinking half way thru the event. Very palatable even when warm. Just the right combination of sugars that are easy on the stomach.

Thank you for your feedback.

Not bad, but needs a bit more flavor...

I liked this stuff. It dissolved almost instantly in water, went almost completely clear, and has a very mild flavor. Can't say as to whether or not it specifically kept me hydrated during my rides, as I drink a gallon of water a day, but it certainly didn't hurt. The added electrolytes definitely were a benefit, as I found myself cramping less and less after each ride. It did a MUCH better job than the other popular sports drink that on the market. My only real criticism would be that it could use just a little more citrus flavor.

Thank you for your feedback.

Great product with very good taste !

Best tasting hydration mix I've found so far ! I don't get tired of it, unlike the other brands I've tried with more synthetic flavors. And it's not too sweet either. Definitely recommend this product !

Thank you for your feedback.

Awesome hydration mix! Never go biking without it!

What I love about Skratch Labs mix is that they use cane sugar instead of corn syrup or Stevia. It makes the drink feel much more refreshing, and you don't have that horrible Stevia aftertaste. A couple of bottles of Skratch paired with a couple of good protein bars pretty much keeps me from bonking on any ride I do.

Thank you for your feedback.

Great mild flavor

Just enough nutrition for my weekend rides. Flavor is just right. I hate mixes that are too sugary or too strong of flavor.

Perfect hydration drink

I am an endurance cyclist, riding in very hot conditions. I always use Skratch Labs drink mix on my rides. They have a pleasant taste and are easy on the stomach. I prefer pineapple and orange flavors. The raspberry has tiny seeds that get caught in my throat and the lime has a little bitter after taste. Great product...pricey, but worth it

Thank you for your feedback.

A minimalist drink that works

I decided to try the Skratch MatchaLemons and found it to be spot on for what I want in a hydration drink. Mixed correctly the drink is pleasing, not sweet or overpowering, and leaves no aftertaste. I could adequately taste the tea and lemons, but not sugar. I've been using water only for the past two years due to my dislike of most hydration mixes. Scratch seems to hit the mark for me and I'll be trying other flavors as spring weather and hours allows more miles. Since it has less sugars, the powdered mix doesn't seem to lump when stored and mixes well when added to water. I like it.

Thank you for your feedback.

Outstanding Hydration Drink Mix

This is the best product hydration drink mix we have tried . My wife has challenges from the hot summer rides in the San Fernando Valley , with water loss and cramps. This product has helped a great deal with both of those concerns.

Skratch does not leave the funky after taste like a few of the other products we have tried.

Thank you for your feedback.

Best Hydration Mix - No gut rot, But not cheap

I race CX, the ultimate test of gut rot and just love this stuff. I need to finish eating at least 3 hours before the start else, it is pukey time and this product keeps the blood sugar at a reasonably high but steady level leading up to the race. It is the only stuff I can use now.

Thank you for your feedback.

BEST HYDRATION PRODUCT ON THE MARKET!!

Having tried pretty much every Sports Drink on the market I have found this to be the best one by far - developed by Allen Lim for the Garmin Professional Cycling Team. Right combination of sugars, great selection of flavours (not overpowering) and stays palatable even after getting warm during a 5 hour Ironman bike ride. Don't leave home without it!!!

Thank you for your feedback.

Actually tastes good

I've tried a bunch of electrolyte mixes and-to my tongue-most of them taste like chemicals. All I taste is weird aftertaste and I don't like it. I've tried all the Skratch flavors and THEY ALL TASTE GOOD. No weird aftertaste, not too sweet, just a nice pleasant slightly fruity flavor that's not overwhelming.

Thank you for your feedback.

Introduced to sckratch on 2017 Ride the Rockies - and loved it!

I use it while cycling. I prefer it to PowerAde and GatorAde as it's not sooo sweet and is far easier on the tummy.
