Our Electrolyte Booster delivers customizable electrolyte support without any added sweeteners, flavors, or salty taste.  It mixes easily into your drink to boost your sodium, but not your flavor or carb intake.  Designed to work seamlessly with any hydration or fueling strategy, it lets you dial in exactly what your body needs—nothing more, nothing less—so you can stay hydrated and perform at your best.

Great for:

  • Higher sweat rates
  • Higher sodium loss (alt: When you lose more sodium than average)
  • Hot or humid conditions
  • Long training or race days

Start with adding ½ to 1 scoop (400 mg sodium per scoop) to 12–16 fl oz of any drink and shake.

Stack with Skratch Hydration Sport Drink Mix, Super High-Carb, or any drink mix option.

Dial it in based on your sodium needs and how you feel.

INGREDIENTS: Sodium Citrate, Citric Acid, Potassium Citrate, Calcium Citrate, Magnesium Carbonate, Ascorbic Acid.

“I am not only a heavy sweater, but I also lose a ton of sodium during training and racing. For years, that was hard to replenish without choking down something overly sweet or artificial-tasting. Skratch Labs' Booster Hydration Drink Mix solved that completely — I can add it to plain water or mix it into any other drink without changing the taste at all. It's become a non-negotiable part of my routine, and properly replacing the salt I lose has made a real difference in how I perform. Simple, effective, and it just works.”

It’s a sodium-only hydration add-in — no flavor, no sugar, no calories. Designed for salty sweaters, hot days, and long, hard efforts where you need more sodium than what’s in our other hydration mixes. It gives you full control without changing your drink’s taste or carb load.

Electrolytes are minerals—like sodium, potassium, calcium, and magnesium—that help your body hold onto fluid, maintain proper muscle function, and keep your nervous system firing. When you sweat, you lose more than just water—you also lose electrolytes, especially sodium. If you don’t replace both, your performance can suffer. Replacing them helps you stay hydrated and perform better, longer.

If you’re a heavy or salty sweater (think white streaks on your face or jersey), or training/racing in heat or for long periods, you may need more sodium than you’re getting. Our Electrolyte Booster lets you add more sodium to your drink without changing your flavor, sweetness, or gut tolerance.

If you don’t know your sweat rate but want to see if you’re a salty sweater, start by paying attention to visible salt marks, post-workout salt cravings, or feeling dehydrated even when you drink plenty. You can also try the weigh-yourself trick: weigh before and after a workout. If you’re drinking to thirst and still losing more than 2–3% of your body weight, your drink likely isn’t salty enough to trigger enough thirst. In that case, adding Booster in half-scoop increments and tracking how you feel can help you dial in your sweet spot.

Booster was made to mix — not to be taken on its own. Always dissolve it in water or another drink. It blends seamlessly with our Sport Drink Mix (for more sodium without extra sugar), Unsweetened (for a low-flavor, high-performance base), or Super High-Carb (for when you need serious fuel and more sodium). You can also add it to plain water or other low-sodium drinks. Just avoid mixing it with drinks that are already high in sodium, and know that in strongly acidic liquids (like juice), flavor might shift slightly. If you add too much and don’t dilute enough... yeah, you might taste it.

Used as directed, it blends in seamlessly — no salty taste, especially in water or Skratch mixes. In more acidic drinks (like juice), or if you overload a small bottle, you might notice a subtle shift. But even then, it's milder than most salty-tasting products or salt tabs.

Start with ½ to 1 scoop (200–400 mg sodium) in 12–16 fl oz of water or any drink. Adjust based on sweat rate, workout length, and weather. Most athletes max out around 2 scoops per bottle. For preloading or extreme conditions, up to 4 scoops is possible — but taste and tolerance vary.

Try weighing yourself before and after a workout. If you’re drinking to thirst and still losing more than 2–3% of body weight from fluid loss, try increasing sodium with Booster (in ½ scoop increments) to encourage more drinking and better hydration. The goal is to stay hydrated just by drinking to thirst — when that happens, you’ve found your sweet spot.

Booster is just electrolytes — so you can customize based on your needs. No carbs, no flavor, no sweetness means you can boost sodium without overdoing fuel or messing with your gut.

The need for extra salt

I am an avid hiker and biker but I also have POTS which requires me to consume extra sodium every day. It’s even more crucial with exercise. Electrolyte booster allows me to do that without overpowering my daily electrolyte (salted margarita) and my sports hydration of choice (guava/orange/ passion fruit)

Great to get that little extra

Recently I entered a 3 hour endurance race in the middle of August in the Alabama heat. I had skratch orange hydration mix in my bladder but wanted to be able to have something not as sweet and high in flavor in my bottles to break it up. I tried two scoops of the unsweetened hydration mix but it still had more of a flavor than I wanted. I ended up using one scoop unsweetened lemon lime and one of the electrolyte booster and it was exactly what I was looking for! The perf9ect balance of still receiving the electrolytes I needed without the carbs or sweet taste gave me exactly what I needed to avoid flavor fatigue. Bonus the mix doesn't get sticky on your frame either! Great product when you need a boost.

Truly unflavored!

This booster is truly unflavored. You can add it to ANYTHING without adding the salty after taste. I usually mix it in with an ice cold Gatorade after a long run. So happy I found this product!

Literally life-changing for POTS

When I developed POTS post-covid, I was afraid I'd never be able to get back to the point where I could do long-distance running again. It was a struggle going from being fairly athletic to losing consciousness if I trie to stand up too quickly, and none of the other electrolyte drinks or mixes I tried seemed to have any real effect. Skratch electrolyte booster changed all that: not only am I able to better function in my daily life, I'm also making massive strides in cardiac rehab without triggering flare days. Can't recommend this highly enough, and if I could give it 8000 stars, I would.
