I noticed recently that Gu put their Gu2O on closeout because they have a new electrolyte drink, Gu Brew.

Has anyone tried it yet? I've had difficulty mixing Gu2O, it would clump up. Is this any better?

Thanks for your feedback!

Haven't heard of it but glad I just ordered a new tub of GU20 becuase I love that stuff. Hmmm...

As for clumping, if you let it sit for 5 or 10 minutes and shake it up again the clumps usually go away. That, and start with NOT ice cold water. I think I read on their web site that ice makes it clump and the best thing was to mix with room temp water and THEN add ice after it dissolved.

Lisa, Thanks for that tip! I still have most of a container left!

They have individual packets on sale at their website here...

Wow...that's a great deal at .50 cents per packet.  I just ordered a box of Lemon-Lime & Orange.  Thanks for the tip.

Gu Brew is on its way, but don't think it has hit the streets yet.

Hopefully they'll send me some to try before ......... I know they are giving us a case of Gu2O to help empty the warehouse.

I have some. It still clumps, but to the point made earlier, if you wait and shake it again, they go away.

I like it. Not as sweet as some of the others, but a little more flavor than HEED.

Thanks for the responses guys! I'd be glad to hear from anyone else that's tried it. I know you can buy it off their website, but I haven't looked in any shops yet.
