Skratch LabsHydration Sport Drink Mix (60 Servings)(Return to Product Page)

A leap in the dark, I bought a large bag of the orange and one of the lemon lime; this on the strength of the reviews. As one of those unfortunate souls that cramp up in the legs and feet after even a 25 or 30 mile ride, I've obviously tried most of the formulas out there that promise to obviate the dreaded stabbing pain. 200 miles over 5 rides and (touch wood) the legs are silent. Oh yes, let this be the beginning of a long and mutually beneficial relationship. Thank you Lord, for the alchemists at Skratch Labs.

Since I switched from plain water to this stuff I think my endurance has increased and I don't have cramps when I get home.

Note that the proportions given are for a small water bottle. Large ones need 1-1/2 scoops

Skratch Labs Hydration sports formula is the first mix I genuinely look forward to putting in my bottles. My body generates a good bit of sweat with fairly high salt loss. Other products did not prevent occasional electrolyte loss-related muscle cramping, especially in hot weather. (Won't mention the competition, their products may work fine for you!) Skratch Labs options do a great job replenishing electrolytes, I haven't cramped since. The number of ingredients is limited to what you need, you aren't filling up your body with artificial ingredients. It tastes refreshing, even when the bottles' contents have long since warmed up a bit. I actually look forward to taking a drink, rather than knowing I ought to.

Great hydration drink for cycling, great tasting lemon + lime and is a great hydration product. Scratch Labs has been my go-to electrolyte for the past 3 years

I've been riding for maybe 40+ years and just drinking water. Got very tired in hot weather; many times leg cramps afterwards. This season I've been using Skratch Labs hydration. I feel like I don't wilt as quickly, no cramps, and I think it's prompting me to drink more. I'm sold.

Used Hammer products for years but now greatly prefer the less-sweet Skratch labs products. Decent pricing compared to like products, and my stomach is in much better shape for very long rides (6-12 hours) when using Skratch compared to any other hydration I've tried.

My go to. I use it for electrolytes and flavor combined with home concocted carb drink on longer rides, and solely on shorter easier rides.

've been using this mix for about 4 years during my bike rides. Not sweet, no stomach issues, works great in preventing leg cramps during 30-60 mile bike rides in 80-90 degree weather, tastes good

My average hydration requirements while cycling are 24 ounces per hour. More on a hot day (2x in Phoenix!), less on cool days. I've only cramped once, on a hot century ride with headwinds.... and vowed to never "go there" again, in regards to coming up short on hydration. SKRATCH Labs gets kudos for their science and product development. One and a half scoops for a 24 oz bottle keeps me in a "safe" zone for an hour, or slightly more. Good stuff!

I use this drink on shorter rides, 2 hours or less or while I'm on the trainer. It's easily digestible and doesn't have an overly sweet taste.

Cycling primarily, but the family uses it for soccer games and hiking as well. While I was used to fizzy supplements, Skratch is an effective addition to the lineup.

Unlike other sports drink mixes, I never get tired of this product. The fact that it is made with real fruit makes it refreshing and easy on the stomach, whether you are sweating buckets during long summer efforts, doing a grueling climbing or interval day, or racing. It is sweet, but never cloying, just enough to make reaching for your bottle a bit of joy. Even tastes good when it's on the warm side. It has helped keep cramps at bay on really hot and humid days where exertion levels are high. When my bottles are empty and I have to refill with something else at a convenience store, it is always a bit of a disappointment. A bit on the expensive side, but worth it.

If you've ever stricken with cramps due to dehydration I can tell you that is a life experience you don't want to repeat. Skratch labs is never sticky or too sweet enabling you to drink without the bloated feeling you get from things like Gatorade. There are just enough calories to keep your energy up. I have tried most of the flavors but Lemon Lime is a safe bet if you are a first time buyer. My wife has become a fan. When she goes for long hikes she will ask me to put some in her bottles. I have been using the product since it was introduced years ago and except in the winter when I add organic pear juice to the bottle for more calories I have never used anything else. I should mention I still take one bottle in the winter just not three as for hot weather rides.

I've been plague with leg cramps for many years, nothing ever worked. Was talking to a competitive bike racer and asked him if he had any recommendations. He recommended SKRATCH, IT WORKED, knocks down cramps within 5 minutes with no lingering tightness in muscles. I recently tried Orange, more like orange whisper. LIme is good.

I've tried others but Skratch hydration mix is the best. Not too sweet but just enough flavor. It's also pretty good about not growing stuff in your bottle if you happen to not rinse it right away.

for me its the best drink mix,taste is mild,easy on stomic,mixs well, and works!

This is one of the best hydration products out there! Not too sweet or salty and extremely tasty!

I use to get these horrific leg cramps, so bad I'd have to tell myself to breathe and would be sweating like a mad dog, the pain was so intense. Tried everything. I met a competitive bike racer and asked how he remedied leg cramps, he recommended SKRATCH and I haven't looked back. You can take to prevent cramps and in the event if you get cramp while not biking, it'll knock it down within 5 minutes, and with no sore muscle after.
