Liquid I.V. earns strong reviews for fast, noticeable hydration—especially after workouts, heat, travel, or a night out—while convenient single-serve packets and broad flavor variety (standouts include Lemon Lime, Strawberry, Passion Fruit, Watermelon, Golden Cherry) make it easy to use. Reviews also flag consistent drawbacks: many flavors taste overly sweet or salty, some feel thick or artificial, and the added sugar and sodium (with a newer sugar‑free line noted) are frequent concerns; mixing can clump and flavor hit-or-miss. Overall, the brand is effective but polarizing on taste and ingredients.

Love this and it’s fun to pack for a weekend that I know I’ll be drinking. The reason I’m giving it a lower rating is because of the sugar content - I got my grandpa a pack of these and he had to stop using them because of the sugar levels.
I tried the immunity pack. The flavor is a little bit stronger than Emergen-c & I honestly couldn't tell a difference in how I felt.
In a pinch only - prefer other brands as I find the available range to taste very chemically. I think there are better options but if this is the only option - for sure pick it up.
It’s incredibly sweet and not my personal preference
Honestly I didn’t see a help of it, it tastes too salty for me to regularly drink it, and as someone that is very dehydrated it just didn’t work well enough for the price.
i love the convenience factor but i'm looking for an option that has less sugar. passionfruit: ew but also ew i don't like passionfruit strawberry: best
I found the taste too salty for me and didn't notice much more of a pick-me-up compared to a gatorade and coffee combo.
Great, natural flavor as well as very refreshing!
Candidly, I'm not a fan of Liquid I.V. I like the idea of an easy on-the-go electrolyte-packed packet, but don't like all of the added sugar in Liquid I.V.'s varieties. Thus, if I'm going to get my boost of electrolytes, I'm going to look towards sugar-free options.
Tastes terrible and is expensive. I would rather just put salt and lemon in my water or have coconut water. I don’t know how people drink this, much less spend that much on it.
With the weather lately I’ve been having trouble staying hydrated. It seems no matter how much water I drank I was still dehydrated. I decided to try these and I’m so glad I did. Makes staying hydrated so much easier
Not super impresed, ingredients list could be much cleaner. I use 2 different brands that contain organic ingredient with no added sugar or unnecessary ingredients.
I got to the sauna and/or hot yoga 5x a week and these hydration packets are the best! I love the versatility in flavors and I like that it doesn’t have any dyes. I have no complaints for this product at all, LOVE!

Great product, but I wish they had a lower sugar content.

Tried their sugar free version and love it! I tend to not drink enough water but this packets definitely help!
THERE'S A SUGAR-FREE VERSION NOW, Y'ALL! I agree with everyone else that the old version had WAY too much sugar to be useful. The new sugar free version is fantastic. Go getchu some!
Liquid I.V. has become the "post bar hack" for my friends and I. I do like the flavors but it always makes my stomach hurt. I'm sure its do to the sugar content in the original formula. I was excited to see that they have a sugar free option now and looking forward to giving that a try.
It’s super popular, I’m glad electrolytes are in the market. It’s good but it does use lot of sugar. I wish it was just focused on salt.
I'm not really a fan of this product because it contains sugar. While I understand that many people enjoy it, I believe that if you're aiming for electrolytes and hydration, opting for salt would be a better choice than sugar.

Super sweet, and high calorie. The flavor is very artificial. Better options out there.
