Product Review : Nuun Electrolyte Drink
I started out on my run, with my Nuun water bottle in hand. Right away I knew I was not a fan of the water bottle. Maybe I got a “lemon”, but the water bottle didn’t expel the drink as I expected. Each sip I took seemed to be mixed with air. I was getting a weird mix of air and electrolyte drink, not to mention the awkward noise that came out of the bottle when I took a drink. For my following runs I used a different water bottle and all was well.
During races I always take the electrolyte drink sample at the hydration station when it’s offered. What I’ve noticed from the samples is that typically they are too sticky, or sugary, and I end up needing to get a water sample in addition to the electrolyte sample to wash it down. I was presently surprised when I tried the Nuun samples. The drink was mellow and left no sticky, sugary residue afterwards. It went down very smooth.
Nuun comes in 14 different flavors:
- Banana
- Orange
- Lemon Lime
- Strawberry Lemonade
- Fruit Punch
- Kona Cola
- Lemon Tea
- Tri-Berry
- Grape
- Tropical
- Citrus Fruit
- Cherry Limeade
- Watermelon
- Lemonade
I sampled the Grape, Strawberry Lemonade, Fruit Punch, Tropical, Lemon+Lime and Orange Flavors. My favorite was the fruit punch flavor, although the others were delicious as well.
I thoroughly enjoyed this product and would recommend it to others. For more information about the Nuun products, visit their website.
I love Nuun. It’s not too sweet and the flavors are good… Delicious enough to drink all day!
