Watermelon Lime is available at my local quickie mart. I think I might call powerade and tell them if they quit making it I will be done with powerade forever. I did that when the throwback pepsi stuff came out and it seemed to work but I don't drink soda anymore for the most part other than some ginger ale once in a while. I'm definitely enthused about the sour. It was done right.
 
I remember the Gatorade cucumber lime or whatever, I really really liked it. When I owned my bread route and was out in the heat of the summer all day, I'd get those and guzzle them.
 
Whenever I like something, it becomes sparse. I don't drink that stuff because they love to put HFCS in everything. I've recently started drinking zevia soda. The Orange soda is awesome. Clear, no chemicals, no sugar. Tastes like shit when you start drinking it, but I've forced myself to get use to it. I tried a Fanta the other day and threw it out, tasted like shit. Taste is weird. I use to hate cilantro, but since I love Mexican food, there's no getting around Cilantro, so I forced myself to like that as well.

I get where you are coming from I just can't drink only water in the summer when it's 100 degrees and I'm working or gigging in the heat. It goes coffee-water-sports drink-water-arizona tea-water-lime water-coffee-water-beer from morning to night on a typical hot summer workday. I used to drink peace tea it's reg sugar but they started putting gay and occult symbols on the cans. Cold beer is for when all the other beverages no longer can cut it. It's also why even in rural africa you can find cold beer. It's a staple for hot weather country living as are vitamins since you basically sweat them out. I sometimes burn through 3 gallons of water plus powerade, beer, coffee, and tea working outdoors in summer. I have a have gallon kleen kanteen and the thing is always empty.

Hey don't get me wrong. If I'm out in the hot sun in the Summer doing carpentry, I'll down a fucking quart of Gatorade without issue.
 
These are my sips, I pay $20 for (24) 24 oz cans. Low sugar (honey), and absolutely refreshing. Just a little sweetness and ice cold thirst quenching.

The AriZona green teas (please note those critical caps) are always sold out at my local quikkie mart but they are delicious. I'm still rocking the POWERADE SOUR. I've settled on the green apple as my favorite. No surprise since I really love green apples.

I like the regular green teas. They are just so sugary. These have very little sugar with all of the "ahhhh refreshment." I am also a massive fan of green apples though.

The POWERADE SOUR is a bit sugary and maybe slightly acidic on the guts but I only drink one per day, max so no sweat. Granny Smith must've been an amazing woman though. Nobody but Frank Nicholas Meyer rivals her when it comes to awesome fruit deeds in this world.

Granny Smith was Australian, apple fact of the day.

Where is @Thumbpicker cause I'm ready to admit Australia was better than us once except Meyer Lemons, although likely from China, were popularized in the USA. Down here we call them valley lemons and let me tell you my friend, there is no finer citrus fruit in this world.
 
Yip, the Meyers are fantastic.

Perfect for peeps who "can't handle" the tanginess of regular (the Eureka variety down here in Oz) lemons.
