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.

I love carrying a Liquid IV pack around with me. The taste is great, and both the packaging and powder itself is of high quality. I am hopeful the brand will release some options with less sugar, though.
We are frequent purchasers and mainly drink them after a long night out. If I had to pick a flavor, the tangerine would be my favorite. I do wish they had a flavor that isn’t super sweet.

A little sweet for my taste however did make me feel better once consumed!
its to salty for my taste buds.
I love this product. My favorite right now is strawberry lemonade. It can be a little salty at first, but can definitely tell that I’m more hydrated after drinking.
Great for preventing hangovers and working out.
I enjoy this product. I don’t love the amount of sugar in the packets, but I understand it helps metabolize the salts more quickly. My husband and I keep these for the morning after a night out!

Waaaay to sweet - has a lot of sugar and ingredients aren't super clean.
Does a good job at hydrating but is super high in sugar and overly sweet
Liquid IV brings me back to life! A must have for a pick me up when you need extra hydration. A little pricey but good to purchase on occasion!
It really works! And the variety of flavors are awesome. Great alternative to the sugar heavy drink mixes.
It’s good if you’re in a pinch but SO much sugar that I end up grabbing other brands first.
Love Liquid I.V. I feel quite hydrated after taking it and it tastes good; I typically go for the Lemon/Lime flavor. Rated it 4/5 due to the amount of sugar.
I never thought these could be worth it (Just drink water right?) but they are a life saver in very hot environments (I brought these travelling in Jordan, plain water does not cut it) and for the morning after a night out (I feel a little sick drinking so much water the day after). Day to day they may not be as needed, but for those times you need an extra boost, they for sure come in clutch.
a summer staple! I always keep these on me and they have become a staple for my family. So happy my friend suggested this brand.
Works well for hangovers I heard, but I’m not a fan of citric acid as an ingredient or anything that flavors water really unless it’s really good and not artificial tasting… haven’t found a flavor that isn’t
Good flavors and works for my mom but it just has way too much sugar it makes me feel sick after drinking.

These are too high in sugar. Better off drinking a zero sugar electrolyte drink. The flavor of these is great though
I am a registered nurse, and I have use this as a revival method! They give you all the necessary electrolytes in your time of need lol
I genuinely feel so much more hydrated after having one. I always have some in the pantry and travel with them. The only reason I’m docking a star is because of the price. Wish they were a little bit more affordable. I also wish it didn’t have so much sugar - not sure if that level of sugar is needed to hydrate the body? I’m not a scientist, but the high sugar content is a bit of a bummer.
