Be honest, what do you think of the taste of the PRIME hydration drinks?

Posted 21st Jul 2023
Now the hype is over I've tried a few flavours (mainly out of curiosity) and I think they are terrible, especially the lemon lime flavour.. vile.

Hats of to logan and ksi, they've pulled a blinder

    How it’s not been “cancelled” I do not know given the KSI situation

    There's a situation?

    EDIT: Couldn't find anything online that suggests any controversy... (edited)

    Not tried. Never will. It was always for the youngsters.

    Obviously it was cool when it was unavailable and very expensive.

    Credit to the gentlemen who pushed this through social media etc and are laughing

    Horrible, Orange one was actually ok. Purchased 7 different flavours for my 6 year old to take a sip, say 'Nice' and tip the rest away.

    Goes to show marketing trumps product! At least initially!

    I tried a few when they launched out of curiosity (about the hype).
    The lemon-lime one just tastes like flat Barr's Limeade, the blue one is an ice pole you forgot to freeze, the moon one tastes like candy floss/cotton candy and I forget the ice pop.
    Overall I find it hard to believe that these sweet flavours are not aimed at children, I would've loved them all on a hot day when I was 8.

    I also wonder if anything similar will happen with Mr Beast's chocolate bars. There has been no interest in the displays at my Asda (yet).

    Wasn't a fan of the bottles. Tried 4 flavours in the cans, really liked the orange one. Wouldn't buy them again, was just to try

    All the ones I tried are grim mainly cause there full of sweetner that you can taste Same as most drinks that include it now can't drink them

    Meh, tastes okay I’ve tried them all and wouldn’t buy again. Too sweet for my liking.

    The lemon and lime was the only one I liked but I use the term "liked" very lightly. I wouldn't ever buy anymore.

    - Taste artificial
    - too sweet, more than 2 sips gives sugar rush and kind of sick feeling.
    - only kind off decent flavour is lime it’s least crap , I could take 2 sips of that.

    I never paid premium price, was lucky quite a few times to be at right place at right time and my daughter made money by selling it at double the cost, which was the only good thing about it.

    Can’t understand why kids like it. (edited)

    i liked them, the strawberry and watermelon was best, then lime, then blue, but the multicolour soda pop one was a bit sweet. early morning before work on a hot muggy day after having a few drinks the night before, they were quite good to rehydrate. better than water, even san pelligrano which i find is better than still water for rehydrating. i think it was a mate who's a football coach that mentioned san p was good for that
