Liquid I.V. reviews and discussion
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.

The lemon lime flavor would be my desert island drink. I have never felt so refreshed or hydrated!! I drink two of these a day (more if I am sweating or outside) and never go without a few in my handbag. I love this brand and wish everyone could experience the feeling of being perfectly hydrated!
Amazing product that does what it says.
Feedback
I wish they would sell a variety pack so you can taste more flavors.
I really liked Liquid IV! It definitely helped me to get rid of my hangover during my bachelorette party. The taste isn't 100% amazing (it's a little salty) but it definitely works.
Feedback
The taste--but it is definitely almost there.
Good for rehydration, easy to pack
Feedback
Expensive, excess sugar
Love the variety of flavors and sales
Feedback
Less sugar
Honestly….. expensive and not really all that changing. I would not repurchase
Feedback
Better efficacy
Great taste overall, and I feel replenished after a night out.
Feedback
It is quite sugary.

Ultimate hangover cure.
Feedback
It tastes pretty bad to me. It’s way too sweet and sugary. It’s also pretty expensive IMO.
This has been such a great product for people like me who don’t drink much water. I carry these with me all the time in order to stay hydrated throughout the day. Flavor is decent and can be added to a bottle of water.
I like the idea of having a product to help with rehydration, but I was expecting better taste. It was super salty which I know is a side effect of electrolytes, but was anticipating that this product would mask it better than it did.
Feedback
Tasted like salt
I really loved multiple flavors (watermelon and passion fruit). High in carbs to have multiple times per day.
Feedback
Sugar-free version? Or sustainable packaging?
Solid. I tend to reach for these after intense workouts and before or after a night of drinking.
Feedback
A little salty?
It’s SUPER salty, which I understand is coming from the formula of the powder, but it’s just super off putting.
Definitely a good, quick way to get hydrated
Feedback
The flavors are a bit strong and too sweet for me. If you’re drinking with a hangover, the cloying taste could make you feel a little nauseous (the consensus at a recent bachelorette).
Liquid IV is great. There’s many flavors that you can choose from and does the job of hydrating the body. The only thing I don’t like too much about it is the taste because although the flavor does kind of mask the taste, I’m not too big of a fan so I would only really drink this if I’m really sick and need the hydration.
Feedback
The weird sweet and salty taste is off putting
I like these for hydration but the taste can be a little intense
Enjoy the taste and ease of taking liquid I.V. when feeling run down and like I need a kick of hydration.
Feedback
Brand! Very little by the way of explaining when to take or seeing average people use it.
The hangover cure.
Feedback
would even buy this as a pre-mixed drink.
It tastes good. I often use it when I've had a long workout or if I have a headache. I'm not sure if it actually works but I feel like it does.
Feedback
It is a bit pricy for the amount that you get.
As a college student who loves to indulge every now and then these are a must. I get debilitating hangovers from stomach aches to headaches. Drinking one of these before bed has been very helpful to counteract these effects.
Feedback
I think that there could be more flavor options and maybe a potential subscription option.
