Yep Powder is the shit...cause you drink it fresh and control the sweet...that is how I roll...kombucha/coffee for caffeine and water and also water mixed with gatorade...plus some form of JerkyThe store bought is way too sweet. I wanted to buy unsweetened Kool aid and put a tablespoon of sugar and a quarter teaspoon of salt in it (per 4 litres / 1 gallon) but you can’t buy it in Canada anymore that’s when I found the Gatorade powder. As long as you don’t put anywhere near the amount they say in it’s quite good and the flavour makes me drink more than I would with straight water.
It is Rare but the Stuff in plastic bottles can occasionally go bad in some way and contain some funk glob...don't google...I actually found one once
