To come up with three new flavors, electrolyte enhanced drink tablet maker Nuun asked for customer input. The three flavors that they came up with as a result are Lemonade, Watermelon, and caffeine-enhanced Cherry Limeade. Flavors will be available just in time for spring.
“Our customers have been our primary source of gathering feedback and these three flavors were consistently requested and received very strong support throughout the development process,” said Mason Reay, president and CEO of Nuun, in a company statement. “We are excited about these flavors because of their broad appeal, from athletes, to adults on-the-go, to kids involved in youth sports programs. The addition of caffeine to Cherry Limeade will also benefit athletes looking to add caffeine to their workout regimen or those in search of a great tasting, convenient alternative to other caffeinated beverages.”
The tablets contain electrolytes, specifically sodium, potassium, magnesium and calcium. Those nutrients are necessary for muscle function, and getting muscles to burn energy efficiently. Nuun makes its tablets without sugar, and when combined with water contain less than 8 calories per serving.
