coasterdude5 Posted March 9, 2009 Share Posted March 9, 2009 This is a little sad, but Powerade Mountain Blast is my favorite drink. I drink it while running, with breakfast, I usually drink a half a bottle a day. I got a new pack yesterday and while the label was a bit different I didn't think too much of it. I drank some and it was sick. It tastes like some watered down powerade zero. It leaves a really bad aftertaste and it generally sucks all around. The old taste really set Powerade and Gatorade apart. It has four electrolytes in the ratio that you lose when you sweat. That's all well and good but did they have to sacrifice the taste for it? Has anybody else had it yet? Hopefully they'll go back to the old formula someday. But if not I gotta see if I can find at least one more bottle of the old stuff.

paintballer Posted March 10, 2009 Share Posted March 10, 2009 If I could recomend a sports drink I'd say......Well...the only sports drink I've ever had is lime green Gatorade...So, I dunno, you can go original I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honeslty though, I like to drink water when I exercise. Yeah before, during, and immediately after it is water. But it's good to drink it a while after, especially after longer runs. But today I went to Kroger and sitting on the bottom shelf were the last two cases of the old formula so I grabbed them. I'm pretty happy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheRapidsNerd Posted March 11, 2009 Share Posted March 11, 2009 I had this by accident a couple days ago and thought it was different. It's ok. Will get a bottle of the old stuff and new stuff and compare. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
astroworldfan1 Posted March 11, 2009 Share Posted March 11, 2009 I think Gatorade is better than aything Powerade has to offer. Powerade is way to watered down for me. -Tatum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jew Posted March 11, 2009 Share Posted March 11, 2009 Pour some sugar in your water and you'll have Powerade... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Powerade is way to watered down for me. -Tatum I don't understand though..If taste comes before hydration, why not just drink Pepsi or something? Ususally if a sports drink tastes good, there's something that MAKES it taste good...and that something isn't water! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
