- Who it's for
- Endurance athletes doing ultras, long runs, or high-intensity efforts who want a high-carb, high-sodium drink mix with caffeine. Also suits those sensitive to synthetic caffeine, since it uses green tea extract.
- What people are saying
- Hosts consistently praise the mellow flavor for avoiding fatigue deep into efforts and the simple, round numbers (100g carbs, 1000mg sodium, 100mg caffeine per serving) that make fueling math easy. Stomach tolerance is a recurring positive; no notable criticism appears across the notes.
- Worth noting
- Caffeine comes from green tea extract, flagged as easier on the gut than synthetic sources. One host notes flexibility in dosing — one scoop per 500ml flask, or two scoops for harder days.

With high intensity, I'll be hitting the carbs and caffeine!

For high carb, high sodium, and caffeine, this is great. I love that they use green tea extract for the caffeine which can be easier on the gut than synthetic caffeine additives.

I love how easy the math is: 100g carbs, 1000mg sodium, 100mg caffeine. Let’s gooo. As someone who definitely appreciates a caffeinated product, this stuff hits. The flavor is mellow enough that flavor fatigue never becomes an issue, even deep into an effort. I’ve been doing one scoop per 500ml flask so far, but I could absolutely see myself two-scoopin’ it for harder days out there.

After trying a lot of different drink mixes, this is the one that stuck. A super easy way to get extra carbs and sodium on board between gels/food - no flavor fatigue since it's just mildly sweet, and doesn't upset my stomach. I take one bottle of this on all my long runs and know that my fueling is gonna be locked in.

Low on carbs? This will fuel you before, during and after your runs!
