Product format	Powdered electrolyte drink mix	Powdered electrolyte drink mix
Overview	Liquid I.V. Lemon Lime Hydration Multiplier is a powdered drink-mix product listed by the manufacturer in a 16-pack. The official page labels it Gluten Free and Non-GMO and describes the flavor as citrus-forward. This record covers Lemon Lime Hydration Multiplier only, not Sugar-Free, MultiServe, or other flavors.	Scoped to the standard Hydration Sport Drink Mix, with Lemon + Lime identified as the candidate flavor rather than a verified, currently purchasable SKU. Skratch distinguishes this sweetened standard formula from its separate Unsweetened Hydration Sport Drink Mix. Flavor-specific label details were not exposed by the opened product page, so claims below are limited to official line-level guidance and FAQ instructions.
Flavor or product scope	Lemon Lime Hydration Multiplier only; specifically the product page listing marked 16 Pack. Not Sugar-Free, MultiServe, or other Hydration Multiplier flavors. The opened page does not identify detailed pack contents beyond the 16 Pack designation.	Candidate scope: standard (not Unsweetened or Caffeinated) Hydration Sport Drink Mix, Lemon + Lime. Exact flavor/form selection was not visible in the opened official page text, so this flavor scope remains provisional and the active SKU is unconfirmed.
Ingredient summary	The official general Hydration Multiplier ingredients overview names glucose, sodium, and vitamins B3, B5, B6, B12, and C as key ingredients. A complete ingredient list for the exact Lemon Lime product was not available in the opened pages; consult the current package label.	The official product-lines page says the standard line uses real fruit for flavor and excludes artificial sweeteners and colors. The opened official text did not provide a readable Lemon + Lime ingredient list; exact flavor-specific ingredients are unknown.
Allergen scope	Unknown from the opened flavor-specific primary source: no full allergen or cross-contact statement was exposed. The Gluten Free label on the product page is manufacturer labeling, not an inference about other allergens or dietary attributes.	Unknown for the specific Lemon + Lime package: no readable flavor-specific allergen declaration or advisory was exposed in the reviewed pages. Do not infer absence of allergens from the line-level dietary claims.
Serving scope	The official product page lists a 16 Pack but the opened content does not state serving size, whether one pack corresponds to a serving, or a water volume per portion. Do not infer numeric nutrition or preparation facts from the pack count.	The official FAQ gives 1.75 tablespoons of Hydration Sport Drink Mix for 12–16 fl oz of liquid. This is general line guidance, not a verified Lemon + Lime package label or nutrition serving scope; use the package directions when available.
Nutrition comparison	Not comparable here: this table does not verify a common serving basis. Check the exact product labels.	Not comparable here: this table does not verify a common serving basis. Check the exact product labels.
Storage & preparation	Unknown for this exact Lemon Lime pack from the opened primary-page content. The official FAQ exposes storage and directions question headings but not their answer text; no specific storage condition, shelf life, or mixing volume is asserted here.	Mix the powder with liquid using the package directions; the FAQ's general conversion is 1.75 tablespoons per 12–16 fl oz. Shake before drinking because fruit ingredients may settle. Store dry mix cool and dry in its zip-top bag or another airtight container, away from heat and direct sun. The FAQ advises drinking prepared mix within the day, or refrigerating it for up to a week.
Availability	Manufacturer listing found when checked; this does not establish current stock.	Not verified
Listed features	The official Lemon Lime product page lists a 16 Pack. The manufacturer labels this product Gluten Free and Non-GMO. Liquid I.V. describes the flavor as zesty, bright, and citrus-tangy; this is manufacturer copy, not a taste test. The official ingredients overview names glucose, sodium, and vitamins B3, B5, B6, B12, and C as key ingredients for Hydration Multiplier, but does not provide a complete Lemon Lime ingredient label in the opened page.	The manufacturer describes the standard mix as a drink powder intended to provide electrolytes and some energy during exercise. The product page's extracted label panels show flavor-dependent nutrition panels, but do not reliably associate a panel with Lemon + Lime; no nutrition figures are stated here. The FAQ gives a household-measure conversion for Hydration Sport Drink Mix and a 12–16 fl oz liquid range; follow the selected package label when available. The FAQ says some settling is normal for fruit-flavored mixes and recommends shaking the bottle before drinking.
Dietary notes	The Lemon Lime product page explicitly displays “Gluten Free” and “Non-GMO.” Only Gluten-free is represented in the directory's dietary-filter vocabulary and is applied here. The opened official sources do not establish a complete Lemon Lime allergen declaration or support Vegan, Vegetarian, or Dairy-free tags; those are left unassigned, not inferred absent.	The official Skratch product-lines page describes the standard Hydration Sport Drink Mix line as vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free, non-GMO, and kosher. The opened pages did not expose a current Lemon + Lime ingredient/allergen declaration or label, so these line-level claims are recorded but not applied as flavor-specific filter tags. Check the package for ingredient and allergen information; exact allergen scope is unknown from the reviewed text.
Useful qualities	The dry powder format is a portable alternative to carrying a premixed drink; this is a format-based observation, not a field-test claim. The manufacturer provides explicit Gluten Free and Non-GMO labeling for the named Lemon Lime product.	Dry powder can be carried separately and mixed with water when needed. Manufacturer FAQ provides a general serving-measure conversion and practical dry-storage guidance.
Things to consider	The powder needs to be prepared with water before drinking; the opened product page does not provide a specific water volume or mixing instruction. The opened official pages do not provide a complete flavor-specific ingredient or allergen statement, so label-sensitive shoppers should consult the current package label.	Requires water and a bottle or other mixing container. Exact Lemon + Lime ingredients, allergen statement, package count, and current variant availability could not be verified from the opened page text.
Packing notes	The official product page lists a 16 Pack. Its opened content does not state stick dimensions, serving directions, or storage conditions; check the current package for those details. Keep separate from water until preparation; that is a format observation, not manufacturer storage guidance.	Pack size and individual-serving format are not confirmed in the readable official page text. The FAQ says to store dry mix in a cool, dry place in its zip-top bag or another airtight container, away from heat and direct sunlight. Once mixed, the FAQ recommends consuming it within the day; if refrigerated, it says it can keep for up to a week. The FAQ also advises shaking because real-fruit mix may settle. Check the package for exact instructions and best-by date.
