One flavour

Salty Lime, and that is the point.

Salt in the formula and salt in the flavour. It is built to taste right when you are sweating, not on the sofa.

The flavour

Salty Lime

Sharp citrus over the pink Himalayan salt that is already in the scoop, so 400mg of sodium tastes like something you want mid-session rather than something you tolerate.
