Waterboy reviews and discussion

I got the WATERBOY hydration electrolyte drink mix because I have trouble with my intake of water. My tap water tastes gross so I boil all the water I drink and usually make tea. I got this electrolyte mix for during heat waves and for when I am ill and get dehydrated. I love that there's vitamin C in this, that's an added bonus!

Great taste and no sugar. These little packets are awesome, but I feel like they are overpriced. There are plenty of other similar products that have the same benefits and are much cheaper. Not sure if its worth the money.

Good alternative to the liquid IV (I think I prefer liquid IV flavors though) and it has way less sugar. I also like that the pouches are a lot smaller / lighter which make it easier for travel. Loved the watermelon flavor.

I was afraid I was falling into an Instagram trap with Waterboy's clever marketing, but it works so well! I have been a long-time user of competitor brands for hangovers, so it was big to make the switch over. Waterboy is a little pricier, but the added ginger to cut nausea is so nice. Please bring back the Jenna Palek collab flavor!! You should do more fun partnerships with fun new flavors.

I have only tried the weekend recovery. I can only give it my highest possible recommendation. All the flavors. I will try the athletic recovery soon as well. Get it.

Are all electrolyte brands the same? I tried 7 brands to find out.

I used to cycle a lot in college, but my team and I would use Liquid IV or Nuun tablets, both of which contain a lot of sugar and artificial ingredients. I came across Waterboy, which has 0g of sugar and super clean ingredients! I am training for a marathon so I make sure to hydrate with these Waterboy Hydration + Athletic Recovery packs during and after my runs! I have not experienced any cramps or headaches due to lack of proper hydration thanks to Waterboy! The lemon lime flavor is delicious! Wish they were sold in retail.

Veeeeery salty but worth it. I've used both weekend recovery and workout recovery and both helped me a whole lot!! The hangover one kept me from staying in bed all day hungover and the workout one helped me when I felt a bit nauseous after an intense gym session.

TLDR: Their product is well formulated. It used to taste really gross, but they actually listened to customer feedback and made it taste great. And it does what it's supposed to do. We love them for that!! I have become a HUGE fan of Waterboy after following their brand's journey. I bought the V1 of their product when it first launched, and while it was incredibly well formulated, it had an absolutely gnarly taste. The brand did an awesome job in taking customer feedback and thoughtfully reformulating multiple variations, and now the product is in an awesome spot. Tastes good, works well, great formula, etc. Big fan of where they've been & where they're going. Excited to continue watching them grow!

Apart from the constant SMS comms I get from this brand, big fan. I've tried every hangover hack under the sun and even though this doesn't cure them, I feel better after using. So many water supplements out there have so much sugar! Waterboy has none (at least the flavors I've tried - blue raspberry and raspberry lemonade) and even though it tastes kinda chalky and soft, it's better than the alternative hangover dry mouth.

amazing!!!

Clean ingredient and no sugar! Flavor is pretty good

The lemon lime flavor is great (drink chilled), and I love how little sugar it has (esp. compared to other brands like LiquidIV).

Great branding and benefits compared to other popular electrolyte packets. The taste was overly salty, if you're into that you'll love it. Gave some to a friend and they found it undrinkable due to the salt. Good customer support team

Love Waterboy's branding and fun-forward voice in the hydration space - they're much more entertaining to follow compared to competing brands like Liquid IV. The nutrition value is there with zero sugar and their products are PACKED with electrolytes. Only downside is they sell out very regularly and you have to wait until they restock.

Way better than the other competitors that are loaded with sugar.
