Soccer and lacrosse may be over in our house but that doesn’t mean we have ceased all activity around here. In fact, I think we are even more active in the summer months as a family. Whether it is bike riding, days at the pool spent swimming and playing, games in the backyard or going on walks with the dog it never stops. You know what else never stops? The request for sports drinks?
On the way to the game they ask for it.
On the way home from a game they ask for it.
After playing outside in the yard for five minutes they ask for it.
Packing for the pool? They ask for a sports drink.
I kind of started to hate it. I hate all the dyes, the artificial stuff pumped into them. All of it. I was intrigued when BODYARMOR sent me a six-pack of various sports drinks to try.
What is BODYARMOR?
BODYARMOR is simply a more natural sports drink. It’s the alternative and a great tasting one at that. It has more potassium-packed electrolytes (at least 600 mg) than any other coconut water but that’s in there too. It’s packed with vitamins and is low in sodium and contains nothing artificial (ahem, unlike other sports drinks on the market). It’s gluten-free and nut-free too! And absolutely no caffeine.
Would the kids notice the difference? No way. They just liked the flavors of orange mango, grape, fruit punch, strawberry banana, mixed berry and lemon lime. Actually orange mango is my favorite and you might have to race me to get your hands on it. I like that the bottles are shorter and narrower. It is still a lot to drink (fills a tall glass and then some) but it isn’t overkill like the other brands. Afterwards, you are super hydrated in a better, more natural way. It earns major points in my book and I would definitely look to stock it up on my next Target run.
You can try some with this coupon too! BODYARMOR is available at the following retailers in the Washington DC/Baltimore area: Target, Mars, Royal Farms and Wegmans. Find your local retailer here.
