When to Choose Skratch Labs Hydration Sport Drink Mix

Endurance athletes and cyclists who want real-food ingredients during training

Skratch Labs is a favorite among cyclists and endurance athletes for good reason — the real fruit ingredients create a genuinely pleasant taste without artificial additives. The sugar is intentional for fuel during exercise, but the moderate electrolyte content means heavier sweaters may need to supplement.

Strengths

  • Real fruit flavoring — uses actual freeze-dried fruit instead of artificial flavors
  • Non-GMO, vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free with no artificial anything
  • Light, refreshing taste that's easy to drink during exercise without stomach upset

Limitations

  • Contains 9g sugar per serving from cane sugar — moderate but present
  • Lower sodium (380mg) and overall electrolyte content than high-performance options
  • Resealable bag format can be messy and harder to measure precisely

When to Choose DripDrop ORS

Those seeking medical-grade oral rehydration for illness recovery, hangovers, or intense dehydration

DripDrop bridges the gap between clinical ORS solutions and consumer electrolyte drinks. The doctor-developed formula follows WHO rehydration guidelines, making it one of the most scientifically grounded options. The sugar content is intentional for absorption, but may deter clean-label purists.

Strengths

  • Developed by a doctor using WHO oral rehydration science for medical-grade hydration
  • Precise sodium-glucose ratio optimized for rapid fluid absorption
  • Available in both zero-sugar and original formulas for flexibility

Limitations

  • Original formula contains 7g sugar per serving from added cane sugar
  • Contains citric acid and natural flavors without full ingredient breakdown
  • Higher cost per stick compared to bulk powder formats
