NEW LOOK. NEW NAME. SAME FORMULA.
Our Unsweetened Hydration Sport Drink Mix (formerly Everyday Drink Mix) is made with simple, functional ingredients—electrolytes and a squeeze of real fruit. It delivers the same electrolyte profile to replace what is lost in sweat as our original Hydration Sport Drink Mix, but without any added sugar. Designed for athletes who want to keep their fuel and hydration separate—or simply prefer a lighter-tasting option.  It’s hydration for when you’re thirsty and need electrolytes, a touch of real fruit flavor, and nothing more.

frequently asked questions

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.

Our electrolyte profile was developed to match what is in sweat - 400 mg sodium/L, 100 mg potassium/L, 50 mg calcium/L, 50 mg magnesium/L. We include the average amount of electrolytes lost in sweat, especially sodium, so your hydration reflects what your body actually needs. That balance helps your body absorb water faster and makes thirst a better guide during exercise.

Our unsweetened sport drink mix is for athletes who want hydration without added sugar or sweeteners. It’s designed for when you don’t need fuel in your bottle, just electrolytes and a light taste to help you stay hydrated. It’s great if you’re doing shorter workouts, using other fuel sources, managing your sugar intake, or just want something easy to sip throughout the day.

Both are built to replace the electrolytes you lose in sweat, especially sodium. But only Sport Hydration Drink Mix contains sugar, which helps increase fluid absorption and provides light fuel. Unsweetened Sport Drink Mix is sugar-free, ideal when you don’t need carbs in your drink or prefer a lighter, less sweet taste.

It has a light, real-fruit flavor with a slightly salty taste (especially our Salted Margarita flavor), just enough to remind you it’s doing something, but nowhere near a salt bomb. It’s sugar-free, so it won’t taste sweet, but it’s still easy and enjoyable to drink, even when you’re not exercising.

Absolutely. It’s great for flying, long drives, or anytime you're not training and want to stay on top of hydration. It also comes in handy when you’re sick or recovering, since it replaces lost electrolytes without any sugar or heaviness.

Definitely. Unsweetened Hydration Sport Drink Mix is great on its own, but it’s also designed to be part of your broader fueling system. Add our Electrolyte Booster for more sodium when it’s extra hot or sweaty, without adding calories, carbs, or more flavor.

We use real fruit for flavor—no emulsifiers or stabilizers—so some settling is normal. Just give your bottle a quick shake before each sip and you’re good to go. We think it’s worth it for flavor that’s real, not fake.

“On easier days, I keep things simple. I’ll use Unsweetened Sport Drink Mix to stay hydrated without overdoing the carbs… I love the flexibility that gives me to listen to my body and fuel accordingly.”

Poor taste

For the amount of electrolytes the mix contains, it is surprisingly salty. This overpowers the natural flavoring.

Everyday Greatness

Drinking plain water all day, although necessary, can become a little boring. Insert Skratch everyday flavors and instantly that extra water flows without hesitation. NOW - we are waiting for all of the sport flavors to convert into everyday flavors!

I love mixing this with the other SL mixes to bring more Sodium into the game. I love it

This drink mix is always in my bottle. Either alone or mixed with other SL drink.

Perfect Electrolyte Mix

I am picky about my hydration mixes. The everyday hydration mix is perfect - helps me with electrolytes, staying hydrated and without feeling like I’m drinking something sweet and sugary. No taste of sweeteners.

Good Stuff

I mix the Skratch a little heavy. I like the taste considering it has no sweetener.

My everyday drink mix

I love this stuff! I’ve been mixing the lemon lime flavor into my iced tea and it’s delicious. I wish there were more flavor options for the everyday! There are more for the sports mix but I don’t like how sweet those ones are.

Very Small Package for the Price

I have to be honest—the product photo is pretty misleading. It looks nearly identical to the Sport Mix packaging, but this version is $8 more and only a third of the size. I was really disappointed when my order arrived, and I found a tiny pouch instead of the full-size bag I was expecting. Since this product is listed at the very top of the hydration page, it's easy to make this mistake. Unfortunately, I ended up buying three of these pricey, undersized bags thinking I was getting the usual Sport Mix. Definitely won’t make that mistake again.

Love the product, kinda hate the packaging

Skratch Orange is one of our favorite hydration/recovery drinks, but the zip-lock tops are always a pain in the keister to get completely and properly closed. Tonight, attempting to confirm a good seal, my hand slipped and knocked and entire Nalgene bottle full of sugar water all over the kitchen. Rather than getting that recovery drink my body was craving, I spend 5 - 10 minutes cursing and cleaning up the counter, drawers, inside the drawers, the floors, and the front of the fridge. Fix your damn resealable bags! Gahhhh!!!!!

Very nice, subtle flavor, no sugar

I use the everyday hydration when I am doing a ride where I don't need any fuel, something short, but when it is warm enough that I will sweat enough to need sodium. The flavor is subtle, so when I know it will be a hot one I can double up on the mix without it becoming overpowering.
