This product easily dissolves in water with a subtle taste that doesn’t overwhelm. It offers a great balance of carbohydrates and salts, making it easily drinkable without any chalky taste. Overall, it’s a good mix.

I highly recommend this product for athletes who want a convenient nutrition solution in bottle form. The energy release is reliable and doesn’t cause stomach upset, even during intense 400-calorie per hour tests. As the temperature increases, I plan to further explore its electrolyte capabilities.

I was looking for an alternative to chews, gels, and candy to sustain me on long rides. Mixing seven scoops with 24oz of water keeps me energized for at least three hours on the bike. The lemon lime flavor is subtly sweet and not overwhelming. Once well mixed, the consistency is not overly thick but slightly more viscous than standard Gatorade. With 100 grams of carbs and 400 calories per seven scoops, it’s a convenient way to prevent hitting the wall, and I experience less leg fatigue at…

I used this product to boost my calorie intake during a long backcountry hiking trip. It has a pleasant taste and provided me with energy and electrolytes. However, the texture is a bit strange when first mixed with water. I suggest shaking it thoroughly and letting it sit for about 10 minutes before consuming. Overall, I am happy with this product and plan to use it for my future long distance running endeavors!

This product is perfect for long bike rides when you don’t feel like eating. It provides essential carbs and is a bit pricey, but the taste is worth it. Although I could mix salt, sugar, and water for a similar effect, I prefer Skratch for its convenience and ease of consumption.

Performs well. Initially a bit bitter, but the taste is not unpleasant.

Disappointing, lacks power. This is why sugar was created.

I was really impressed by this product. I typically use their regular hydration mix for my daily workouts, but recently I had a 200-mile bike ride all in one go. To mix the powder with water, you’ll need a mixer container as the consistency is similar to confectioner sugar and will float otherwise. I usually use 25-ounce water bottles and added 8 scoops per bottle. Just two bottles provided enough fuel for the first 100 miles. Despite feeling a bit empty, I had plenty of energy and didn’t…

My son participates in mountain bike races and typically relies on the regular bagged Skratch products. For an upcoming race that required us to fly, we needed something more portable and these packets were the perfect solution. While the flavor may not be as bold as the bagged versions, the convenience outweighs this minor concern.

I tried this product during the 2024 Unbound Gravel Race in Emporia, Kansas. The taste is great, although it does take some time to fully dissolve. Despite that, it works well for me and I plan on purchasing it again.

I have tested both the lemon lime and raspberry flavors of this product. While I prefer the lemon lime, it doesn’t quite match the taste of their hydration mixes. I’ve incorporated this product into my long workouts following a challenging 70.3 in Oregon. I struggle to consume enough fuel to sustain me during the run, but this product has made a significant difference for me! I only need to use half the amount, so I’m taking in approximately 150-200 calories per hour during my workouts. For…

I was disappointed with this product as it was very sour and had a strong flavor. It did not taste like the other Skratch flavors I have tried.
