About this deal

It’s a great taste but it tastes very familiar and instantly makes the limited edition status feel less limited knowing there’s another brand you could just nip out and buy that doesn’t have the popularity or star appeal as this particular drink. However, it was more of a fake-tasting diluted peppermint taste with lemon juice to add bitterness. It is the sort of thing you would not look forward to taking as medication when you are off school, but if you don't have a sweet tooth then this is the drink for you. If you don't like sweet drinks, you will not love this one. However, I did enjoy it but it is nothing like I have ever tried before. The price makes me reluctant to say I love it, but it is good. Those who want to give it a try should do as soon as possible as it is only around for a limited amount of time For months now, video sharing platform has seen clips of people selling the drinks going viral, in particular the account 'Wakey Wines', where the owner of a convenience store in Wakefield blew up on TikTok for making videos where he would simply film himself with customers who bought the drink and repeat catchlines that have simply become a trend. For the older generation, they simply do not get the trend or understand why there is such hype, but the social media generation and teenagers see it as a norm, and it is this way of thinking that has led to the absolute craze of the drinks.

Sainsbury's have enforced a maximum of three drinks per customer rule to try and ensure that things remain fair and there is a chance for more people to get their hands on the beverage. The new flavour of viral sensation hydration drink Prime from YouTubers KSI and Logan Paul hit the shelves in Sainsbury's for the first time today.Tesco, Iceland, Sainsbury's and Waitrose safety warnings as items including cheese and Quorn pulled from shelves This brand-new orange and mango limited edition flavour will be sold as part of a bundle which will include a limited edition box, 12 KSI bottles, a T-Shirt and a bandana. While we were there we decided to try it out to see what all the fuss is about. This must come with a disclaimer that I have not tried the other flavours of Prime and have had no desire to do so. With a tasty hit of fruity freshness, PRIME Tropical Punch is perfect for fans of exotic fruits and adds a unique take on a classic flavour to any drinks range. Add the bright red bottles to your store and add depth to your selection of these much hyped and fashionable wholesale drinks. Now if you've not come across Powerade before, it is a luminous drink made by the Coca-Cola company that comes in a variety of sweet flavours labelled as an isotonic sports drink. Young Greg fell for the marketing and we all decided it would be a great idea to get a bottle to power us on our way.

Now for the one I have been really looking forward to - Prime Hydration's KSI Orange and Mango flavour. I was going into both drinks with high expectations, but the fact that this is KSI's own flavour, with his name attached, meant that I was looking for an impeccable drink. I have come to realise that it is not the drink's flavour as such, but rather the thought of knowing you have an elusive drink which is attached to the YouTuber sensations. The pair have managed to grasp a gap in the market, which they have filled with their popularity to offer a hydration drink.

It was a bit sour and bitter, but had no wow-factor that I thought was the reason for the drink's craze. It just tasted like simple lemon squash in all honesty, and the drink is supposed to have "bold, thirst-quenching flavours" that help you "refresh, replenish and refuel". Prime Hydration already comes in seven different flavours - Meta Moon, Ice Pop, Orange, Blue Raspberry, Tropical Punch, Lemon Lime and Grape. Each serving is between 20 to 25 calories and claims to be comprised of 10 percent coconut water, with added electrolytes, BCAAs (Branched-chain amino acid), B vitamins and antioxidants, but is caffeine free. The drink that has grasped millions across the world from the YouTubers has been selling out everywhere while the pair have constantly been in the news across the country due to their popular drink for the last year. We have all seen those videos of mayhem striking in supermarkets as people rush to try and get their hands on the drink that seems like gold dust to everyone.

Prime Hydration was also made the Official Hydration Partner of Arsenal Football Club. There are currently nine Prime flavours on offer - Grape, Orange, Lemon and Lime, Blue Raspberry, Strawberry Watermelon, Tropical Punch, Ice Pop, Meta Moon and KSI's new and limited edition Orange and Mango. On the launch of the drink a Sainsbury’s spokesperson said: “We know our customers actively seek the latest in product innovation. We are excited to be launching the following Prime Hydration products in store from Tuesday, February 21:The drinks definitely energised me - without being an energy drink - and I was able to feel revitalised from tiredness, in a similar way to sport drinks. The entertainers have definitely taken the sports drinks market by storm and - due to their drinks always being talked - it is hard to see when they will stop. If you aren't a fan of a sweet flavoured drink, this probably isn't for you. But I was a huge fan. It reminded me of the juicy spring water brand Drench - their tropical flavour tastes very similar to it. This was a pleasant surprise, but the flavour too offered a double whammy of goodness. When I took a sip, it offered a sweet fruity sensation of sharpness and definitely impressed with a tropical tang with hints of orange, mango, passion fruit and pineapple.

So out I walked with three bottles (one for me to try - and one each for my two stepsons who would never forgive me if I tried it without telling them). Success. A Sainsbury’s spokesperson said: “We know our customers actively seek the latest in product innovation. We are excited to be launching the following Prime Hydration products in store from Tuesday 21 February: The craze is sky-high even still to this day, but once this dies down a little I would drink this one after a session at the gym or after playing sports to hydrate me. Speaking on his own flavour, KSI said: "I've got a new flavour coming out, one of my very own. I already know - because it's limited edition as well - that it's going to go mad. I think people are just going to want to keep the bottle as well." It tastes okay, for me the flavours are a bit too powerful and a bit too sweet but then I'm not a teenager anymore. I'm sure young impressionable Greg might have liked it.Social media personalities KSI and Logan Paul have been dominating the sports drinks scene since their launch of Prime Hydration, and they seem to be continuing their acceleration worldwide. In February this year, it was announced that several supermarkets including, ASDA, Aldi, Costco, Sainsbury's and more across the UK would be selling the viral drink to customers.
