Yeah, prob not the healthiest... but as a "performance enhancer" I find it awesome. Know of any cheaper alternatives?

Cherry Limeade Nuun Energy? No sugar/calories (or at least very minimal) but it has a similar (though much less sweet) cherry type flavor available (as well as Lemon Lime) and provides a nice hit of caffeine, plus electrolytes. It's my go-to for intense early morning workouts and the latter stages of long rides/races. If you still need more sugar/caffeine, PowerBar tangerine gels (I think also the strawberry/banana flavor) have generous shots of both, as well as electrolytes. My go-to for the HIM run and actually any run over 90 minutes, especially in tropical conditions. Thin texture makes it easier to get down on the run as well.
