However good the drink is, it's pretty pointless having it if you can't stomach the stuff. Thankfully, I found the Enervit pleasant to consume with its quite subtle taste, and refreshingly it doesn't taste over-sweetened like many energy drinks. My first taste of the 'mild lemon' flavour was before leaving the door, at which point I did think it was almost a little bitter, but 50km into the ride and I honestly couldn't think of many drinks that I'd rather consume. Even when warm it goes down easily. Sasol’s ISOCARB 16 – a Guerbet acid derived from the company’s ISOFOL 16 alcohol – is a key ingredient in a unique lipid nanoparticle that creates a fatty layer of protection for the vaccine’s active component, allowing it to safely make its journey into the body’s cells. The Drink Mix 320 is vegan, vegetarian, free from artificial ingredients and certified by Informed Sport, according to Maurten. Depending on how you mix it, the drink can be hypotonic, isotonic or hypertonic. Kaden Gardener / Our Media

This 650g tub contains 10 servings (two scoops) meaning that it isn't the cheapest option, but the 60-90g of carbs per 500ml bottle is kind on the stomach and excellent at warding off a premature bonk. The Precision Fuel and Hydration Carb and Electrolyte Drink Mix is meant to replenish energy and sweat losses in exercise. Defined by its reduced sweetness, mild taste, and the absence of color, artificial flavors, and sweeteners, it’s the ideal ally to support you during your most intense sports performance efforts. Specially developed to meet the needs of adolescent consumers, novel AP/Deo products (female and male AP aerosols) containing aluminum chlorohydrate (ACH) and 2-butyloctanoic acid (ISOCARB 12) were applied as AP/Deo active ingredients and parfume to mask sweat odor. But having more fructose in proportion to maltodextrin makes the drink sweeter, possibly overly so for some palates.

It’s gratifying to see ISOCARB 16 being used to create these critical lipid nanoparticles for use in COVID-19 vaccines. We should all be proud that a Sasol product is playing a key role in fighting the global pandemic.In hot weather, they can contribute to nausea, thirst and even dehydration. Once the hypertonic drink is inside your gut, your body removes water from your blood to maintain the correct concentration of liquid in your intestine. By ingesting additional carbs, I achieved this intake in testing. The light, refreshing and not overly sweet berry flavour (similar to Vimto) helped me drink multiple bottles on long rides. Some riders prefer to drink all their carbs in fluid, so need a stronger solution; others opt to top up their intake with energy bars and gels, so need a weaker carb drink. Cycling energy drinks come in a range of flavours, with many of the stronger variants being unflavoured. Trial and error will determine which one appeals most. On long, hot Tour de France stages, riders will have some carb drink along with energy gels , water and possibly electrolyte drink.
