This stuff is so much better than Gatorade...This has a much more pleasant taste than Gatorade! After drinking this mix, drinking Gatorade is like drinking syrup...way too sweet for my liking. I drank this primarily for my 330 mile ride from Pittsburgh to Washington D.C. I like the LemonLime much better than the Orange Gu20 which kind of left a weird aftertaste. I would definitely get the LemonLime again!

I've tried Gatorade, Nuun tablets, plain water, Clif drink powder, and all 3 flavors of the GU Brew. Each has its place. Nuun for refilling on the road. Gatorade for after I'm back home. Water for short rides. But for filling my bottles or camelbak at home before a longer bike ride, the Clif and GU Brew are my top picks.

The Orange and Lemon Lime flavors are pretty much what you expect: a flavor similar to Gatorade (but less syrupy). The downside is that if you choose to dilute these sour/citrus flavors they really start to taste bad. Imagine an glass of watered down orange juice, it doesn't taste quite right.

The blueberry pomegranate flavor was the last one I tried because lets be honest...when you're in the middle of a hot and sweaty workout is blueberry pomegranate really what you think of? Surprisingly, it turned out to be my favorite. It is very refreshing and at 1/2 or 2/3rds strength it still tasted great. An added bonus was that it had 2x the sodium of the others, something really helpful for those longer bike rides in hot weather.

I ordered lemon lime and the taste is great. Definitely the way to go with a low sugar high carb electrolyte replacement drink.
