TFS Follow-up Review:
nuun’s New “kona cola” Flavored Electrolyte Tablets

Section: Nutrition, Hydration, Product Reviews
In the expanding world of hydration products, nuun has separated itself from the pack with their quality portable electrolyte tablets. It is dissolves quickly, is sugar-free, is convenient to use, and tends to have a mild, pleasing taste.
(For nuun product details and to read TheFinalSprint.com’s review from earlier this year, please click here).
Since TFS’s review, nuun has added “kona cola” as a new flavor to their existing lineup of lemon-lime, tri-berry, and citrus fruit. Not only does Kona Kola give a new taste, but also offers 40 mg of caffeine for each tablet. This quantity of caffeine is roughly half of the amount found in a cup of coffee, and is more on par with a cup of tea or a serving of cola.
I was initially apprehensive about trying a cola-flavored sports drink. After all, who likes flat coke? However, I was pleasantly surprised with Kona Cola’s taste. It was mild, and really worked with nuun’s slight effervescence (”fizziness”). Although it is not my all-time favorite flavor, it is a welcome addition and adds variety. Furthermore, athletes that prefer to consume caffeine during activity will appreciate the small shot of vitamin C and the 40mg of caffeine in “kona cola” nuun.
