Hydration, but make it functional. Rather than one general average product across the board, we can help you recover from what has you down bad. Are you letting a hangover kill your vibe? Replenish exactly what you lost (dignity excluded). How is it better? Well we made ours for adults after a night out, whereas they didn't. Not only is our formula packed with electrolytes (3x competitors), but ingredients to help with hangxiety, nausea and fatigue. Want to hydrate after a workout without the fillers, sugar and junk? Our motto is we work hard in the gym, let's save those calories for ice cream, not our 'sports drink'. Our athletic recovery line is packed with electrolytes and l-glutamine for recovery.
