Reviews mention

  • Noticeably fast hydration boost
  • Convenient travel-ready packets
  • Wide, crowd-pleasing flavors
  • Mixes easily in cold water
  • Overly sweet, sometimes salty taste
  • High sugar and sodium content
  • Occasional thick, gritty texture
  • Inconsistent flavor enjoyment

Liquid I.V. earns strong reviews for fast, noticeable hydration—especially after workouts, travel, heat, and hangovers—while convenient single-serve packets and broad flavor variety (Lemon Lime, Strawberry, Passion Fruit, Watermelon, Golden Cherry) stand out. However, many reviews flag overly sweet, sometimes salty flavors, a “thick” mouthfeel, undissolved grit, and high sugar/sodium; some prefer diluting with more water or the newer sugar‑free line, and a few question ingredient “cleanliness” or effectiveness versus competitors.

  • Can always count on these to help when I've had a little too much to drink! Never fails

  • Any time I feel the slightest bit dehydrated, I know Liquid IV is the solution! After a workout, a night out, or if I'm just needing a tasty bevy to pick me up -- I know I'll be satisfied with the variety of flavor options and overall benefits of this product.

  • These work great, but are definitely sugary. Also, some of the flavors (lemon-lime) are good, while some (passionfruit) are really bad. At the end of the day they're electrolyte packets, they're good when the weather is hot and you're out, like at a festival or something; but not so much for a hangover since they're so sugary! They're pricey but worth it, in my opinion!

  • Absolutely love the dragon fruit flavor, it's a monthly subscription for our family

  • I always keep these on hand, especially when I have a busy day.

  • These we first to market but the taste and vitamins are not comparable to newer options. When I am dehydrated or trying to workout, I do not want a sugary option that does not feel thirst quenching. I also would prefer less sugar and more salt. This is no longer my go to for workouts or nights after drinking.

  • I love adding liquid IV to my water for boosted gradation! From workouts to night outs, liquid IV has you covered ;)

  • The easiest way to hydrate and re-energize after a long night or lack of sleep!

  • This product actually made me "feel" like I was getting good hydration. I physically felt better, faster. While the taste of this product is actually pretty good, I'd like to see more options for flavors, such as Raspberry, Cherry etc. I use this regularly.

  • Perfect for on the go, work or the gym. Love the different flavors.

    Received a free product from Liquid I.V.
  • My wife got these. They are ok. For me personally too salty but she enjoys them. I get a little nervous anything the world economic forum endorses since they endorse everything not good for you.

  • Whenever I needed a quick super hydration dose, I drop some of this in my filtered water at home. Adds electrolytes and some great taste to ordinary water.

  • Love this! The flavors are amazing and it really keeps you hydrated!!

  • These are easy to take with you anywhere - just add water! Love all the flavors I’ve tried so far. I just wish there were more choice flavors for sugar free - there is so much added. Other than that I feel that it definitely helps keep me hydrated especially living in TX!

  • Really great for hydration, flavors are a bit powdery tasting, but better than other hydration packets like this one

  • Great easy way to stay hydrated. Perfect to bring when you are traveling!

  • I like keeping liquid IVs around for when I feel dehydrated or when I’m traveling. I’ve enjoyed most of the flavors I’ve tried, and my favorite is the tropical punch. I also like that they just released a new sugar free version.

  • When drinking liquid IVs they give me the nutrients I need.

  • Liquid I.V. is a game changer for anyone with a active lifestyle. I especially like to use it after a music festival or long day of partying. It leaves me feeling rejuvenated for whatever I have to do the next day!
