Skratch Clear is an awesome electrolyte powder, with very low sugar, and a decent amount of sodium, potassium, and magnesium. The flavor is of the faintest hint of salt and lemon, barely detectable, so cool water remains refreshing. The Skratch Sport Hydration mix is great as well, if you don't mind bold flavor and sugar. However, I am very sensitive to sugar, as it causes instant fatigue for me. Therefore, I either drink all Clear on 1-2 hour all-mountain bike ride, or blend 50/50 Clear blended with Sport for longer Enduro rides. If Clear came in a caffeinated option, that would be electrolyte powder perfection!

Great idea, I love the idea of a less-sweet electrolyte option that you can concentrate without concentrating the flavor. I’ve emailed to ask how all of these ‘pro athletes’ use this and the SuperFuel in real-world conditions - because I can’t see how I will be able to refill bottles during a race, given the process needed to mix this: add some water; add the product; shake vigorously; fill up with water; shake again. How do you do that during a bike ride or on a run during a triathlon?!<br /><br />Yes, the mix can still be clumpy or cloudy, as others have mentioned. If you let it sit for a bit, the product does completely dissolve (both this and SuperFuel - but that one requires 7 scoops for one serving). It settles great overnight in the fridge - no product visible at all.<br /><br />The flavor is mild and doesn’t get sweet. It doesn’t have the tartness of actual lemons or PureLemon (I wouldn’t want tartness while working out or training).<br /><br />This is more so for the SuperFuel, but Clear has the same primary ingredient so I’ll share this here: It is VERY sticky. A bike mechanic told me to stop using it because of the amount of dried-on product on my bike frame and how hard it was to remove (he was concerned about my bike finish getting damaged by it). You get it on anything and it will dry - but it doesn’t come off easily. Right after mixing, it’s kind of syrupy and viscous - it doesn’t look appetizing.<br /><br />The bag for Clear is small! It lasted only a few days for me, especially as I do drink it during the day as well as during training. I don’t understand why the bag for this product is *so* much smaller than the bags for regular Skratch and SuperFuel.<br /><br />It does come in packets/individual serving sizes - again, great concept, but you’ve still got to mix with partial water, shake, etc.<br /><br />I have an Ironman in a few weeks and have been working on figuring out how I will fuel on the bike and run. I have a lot of GI issues and can’t rely on what will be on course. But I’m really struggling with how I can use this product in a real-world race situation. I hope they figure out a way to concentrate their Cluster Dextrin ingredient, perhaps offer it in a solid/chew, and modify it so it’s much easier to mix, both for Clear and SuperFuel.

Very satisfied with this purchase! Super easy to mix, appreciate the inclusion of the scoop for measuring purposes, and they nail the hint of lemon flavor! The mix was nice and smooth without any clumping after shaking/following the directions. Will definitely order again!

Long time traditional Skratch user. I already find it with a more mild flavor compared to other hydration mixes. This is significantly less sweet than regular Skratch. Almost like lemon water. Mixing is more challenging than normal Skratch. First time I used it, I mixed it in like normal Skratch (not what the directions say) and it clumped up and would not dissolve no matter how much I shook the bottle. Next time I followed the directions (mix the packet with just a little bit of water, shake, then add the rest of the water) and it was fine. I like it, but not more than normal Skratch. If you find the regular stuff to be too sweet, then this is worth a try.

If you are like me and hate overpowering flavored sports drinks during workouts and runs, this is for you. It barely has a taste and does it’s job rehydrating.

it doesn’t dissolve well
