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 Cure Hydrating Electrolyte Mix
Health-conscious consumers who prefer whole-food-based hydration with organic ingredients
Cure takes a whole-food approach to electrolytes with organic coconut water as the base. The ingredient quality is high and the taste is pleasant, but the electrolyte content is moderate. Best for everyday hydration rather than intense athletic performance.
Strengths
- Made with organic coconut water and pink Himalayan salt for a whole-food base
- No artificial sweeteners, flavors, or colors — plant-based ingredients
- Convenient stick-pack format with pleasant, not-too-sweet taste
Limitations
- Contains 4g sugar per serving from organic coconut water and cane sugar
- Lower electrolyte content than performance-focused competitors
- Premium pricing for the amount of electrolytes delivered per serving
