Frequently Asked Questions
Will one stick fit the standard 16.9 oz bottle I keep at my desk?
Yes, each stick is pre portioned for a 16.9 fl oz bottle, which is the most common desk bottle size. Drop it in, cap the bottle, shake for five seconds, and you have a flavored drink without leaving your chair.
How many sticks should I keep in my desk drawer for the work week?
A 30 count box covers about six work weeks if you use one stick per day. Many remote workers keep a small stash of ten to fifteen sticks in a desk organizer so they do not have to think about restocking for a while.
Is mixing a stick going to make noise that disrupts a Zoom call?
The mix time is about five seconds of gentle shaking. We suggest mixing right before you join a call or during a scheduled break. Some customers mute the mic for those few seconds, but most coworkers do not notice.
Can I keep a stick in my reusable bottle all day without the flavor going bad?
The flavor holds up well for eight to ten hours, especially if the bottle is kept cool. If you work in a hot environment, consider mixing a fresh stick mid afternoon for the best taste.
Will my coworkers be bothered by the smell or the sound of me mixing a drink?
The powder has a light fruit aroma when you tear the stick open, but it dissipates within a few seconds. Mixing is a quick five second shake, so most coworkers barely notice it as part of the normal office rhythm.
I work from home and forget to drink water. Will this help me hit my hydration goal?
Customers report this is one of the biggest benefits. When water tastes like fruit punch, you actually finish the bottle in front of you, which is the simplest way to break the dehydration habit that hits most remote workers.
Does this fit in a coworking space fridge without taking up much room?
Yes, the box is slim and the sticks are about the size of a single serve sweetener packet. You can store the box in a shared fridge or just keep a few sticks in your work bag for the day.
Is this cheaper than the office vending machine flavored drinks?
A stick costs a small fraction of a single can from a vending machine, and you avoid the afternoon sugar crash. Over a year, most customers save several hundred dollars compared to a daily drive through coffee or soda habit.
How does this compare to a soda stream or sparkling water maker at the office?
A soda stream requires a machine, CO2 canisters, and flavor syrups. Our sticks are a simpler plug and play option that works with any bottle you already own, with zero equipment and no cleanup beyond rinsing the bottle.
Will the powder leave a film or residue in my favorite reusable bottle?
The formula is fully water soluble and does not leave a film when you rinse the bottle with warm water after drinking. For a deeper clean, a quick scrub with a bottle brush and a drop of dish soap is plenty.
Is five calories per stick going to add up if I drink five bottles a day?
Even at five bottles a day, you are looking at 25 calories total, which is less than a single apple. It is a popular choice for productivity focused workers who track macros because it does not meaningfully affect daily intake.
Will the powder stain a clear glass or Tritan bottle on my desk?
No, the formula does not contain any dyes known to stain glass, Tritan, or stainless steel. A quick rinse at the end of the day keeps your bottle looking new.
Does the box have a place to write my name or the date I opened it?
The outer box does not have a label field, but most people write the open date on a small piece of tape and stick it to the top of the box. The sticks themselves have a printed lot code on the back of the wrapper.
Could using these sticks help me quit my afternoon soda habit at work?
Many customers report that replacing the 3 pm soda with a stick flavored bottle of water is the single easiest change that improved their workday energy. You get the sweet fruity taste without the sugar crash that follows a soft drink.
Will my company care if I keep a personal drink mix at my desk?
Most office policies allow personal food and beverage items at a personal workstation. Since the sticks are zero sugar and non alcoholic, they do not raise the same issues that energy drinks or alcohol seltzers might in a shared space.
How do I mix one stick into a bottle of water?
Open one stick by tearing at the top, pour the powder into a 16.9 fl oz bottle of cold or room temperature water, cap the bottle tightly, and shake for about five seconds. The powder dissolves fully with no gritty texture. You can also stir it with a spoon if you do not have a bottle with a cap.
Can I mix a stick into more or less water than 16.9 oz?
Yes. The stick is pre portioned for 16.9 oz, but you can use two cups of water for a milder flavor or a full liter for a lighter taste. Some customers split one stick across two smaller bottles for kids. Adjust the amount of water until the flavor matches your preference.
How long does one stick take to dissolve?
In a capped bottle, a five second shake is usually enough. In an open glass, a quick stir with a spoon for about ten seconds is all you need. Cold water takes a few seconds longer than room temperature, but it always dissolves without leaving clumps.
Does this mix work in a 32 oz or larger bottle?
Yes, you can drop two sticks into a 32 oz bottle or three into a 48 oz bottle. Many gym goers use this approach to flavor a full Hydro Flask for a long workout. The flavor scales linearly, so you can experiment until the taste is exactly where you want it.
Does the powder work in sparkling water or carbonated beverages?
It does, but you will lose some carbonation when you shake the bottle. We suggest stirring the powder into sparkling water with a spoon instead, or mixing it into still water and then adding sparkling water to preserve the fizz.
What is included in the 30 count variety pack box?
You get 30 individually wrapped stick packs, divided into four flavors: 12 sticks of Tangy Limeade, 6 sticks of Citrus Punch, 6 sticks of Summer Colada, and 6 sticks of Tropical Berries. The box has a tear open top and a resealable inner bag to keep the sticks fresh.
Do I need to buy anything else to use this product?
No, the only thing you need is a bottle of water. A reusable 16.9 oz bottle is recommended for daily use, but any clean drinking vessel works. There is no machine, no batteries, and no refills to buy.
Are these sticks safe to drink every day?
Yes, the formula uses FDA approved sweeteners at well below the acceptable daily intake for adults, and it contains no sugar or caffeine. As with any food product, we recommend a varied diet and encourage you to consult your healthcare provider if you have specific health concerns.
What is the shelf life of the sticks?
Each box has a best by date printed on the bottom, which is typically eighteen months from manufacture. Store the box in a cool dry place and reseal the inner bag after each use to keep the powder fresh and free flowing.
What is the difference between this powdered drink mix and a liquid water enhancer?
Liquid water enhancers like Mio use a squeeze bottle and rely on preservatives to stay shelf stable. Powdered stick packs are individually portioned, shelf stable without preservatives, and travel better because there is no squeeze cap to leak. Both deliver flavored water, but the powder format is generally more convenient for on the go use.
