Reviews mention

  • Fast-acting hydration boost
  • Convenient travel-friendly packets
  • Wide, crowd-pleasing flavors
  • Smooth, easy dissolving powder
  • Overly sweet flavor profiles
  • Noticeable salty aftertaste
  • High sugar and sodium content
  • Occasional clumping texture

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.

  • I love Liquid IV for a quick hydration option, especially on the go. The travel packs are extremely convenient and dissolve easily when shaken into a water bottle. I also appreciate the variety of flavors.

  • This brand is the best quality that you can get for electrolytes and making sure you get hydrated highest quality well make sure that you’re staying hydrated after a sweaty workout or drinking. Really easy to mix with drinks and taste good

  • I tried to sample of this at Costco and really liked it. It did not taste powdery and I like the variety of flavors in a pack. I think it is a little expensive for just being drink mix. I like the colorful packaging.

  • Liquid IV has become a regular product in my life. I feel good getting all the electrolytes and hydration. I feel like it helps prevent headaches and keeps my energy more stable throughout the day. Great after a workout.

  • I'm someone who likes to go on walks and hikes a lot so dehydration is something I have to deal with often, so I always keep a few of these in my backpack or tote bag in case I need an instant dose of electrolytes and chase away a case of dry mouth.

    Received a free product from Liquid I.V.
  • I drink electrolytes daily to help me keep hydrated and healthy and liquid IV makes such good ones. I like their sugar-free versions as well and I always bring these on chips with me because they help get rid of hangovers and keep me feeling good.

  • I like the single serve packets that are convenient and easy to use. It also comes in many flavors for variety. It is not too sweet and a great way to replenish electrolytes.

  • I always get this for decent price at Costco! Their packets are compact enough to fit into my small purse, and it’s delicious. It lets me drink more water. I also donated some to the firefighters, and they loved it.

  • We drink a lot of LiquidIV in my household! We even put them in our wedding welcome bag for our guests. I like to drink one before indulging in adult beverages. I find that I wake up less hungover and less dehydrated. I wish they had a flavorless option so I could add it to my own beverages.

  • liquid iv is a great way for me to keep myself hydrated on the go. i love the flavors but they are a bit too sweet.

  • These are good! I hate all of the added sugar but I get that some people prefer sugar to sweeteners and so I get that. I like the variety of flavors that they offer and they are certainly healthier than a Starbucks drink

  • love liquid IV and if you don’t like super sweet things and maybe get the no sugar versions I like putting these in my Stanley cup with 40 ounces of water instead of what they recommend because it does have a lot of flavor and is very sweet these always make me feel nice and hydrated

  • Liquid IV is the electrolyte of choice for me. So tasty and convenient. I love that they offer a sugar free version now.
