I didn't know it was an energy thing, I thought it was just a water flavoring.

most of them are just flavoring, the Energy version is new, I assume to compete with the Crystal Light Energy packets.
I love MIO, I keep one in my purse all the time.

Ah. I've considered trying the flavoring one. I don't like any of the flavored waters or crystal light because they all taste diety or way too sugary, so I like the idea that you can just add what you want. I thought it would probably have an aspertamey taste though.

it doesn't to me, it's got splenda in it, but I don't generally use enough to make it that flavored.

60 mg of caffeine per serving, but I don't use nearly as much as they say you should for a serving, as they claim there are only 17 servings in a bottle, and I can easily get 40-50.

Thats why the Vitamin Waters are the only ones I like, they have very mild flavors. I'll try MIO.

The good thing about MIO is you can add as little as you want, for a lighter flavor.
My brother swears by the MIO stuff. He says he used to hardly drink water, now hes drinking tons

Then it might be okay. I figured I would just like... poor the stuff in and end up with like 400mg.

Yeah I love the fact that you can add as little or as much as you want to get the flavor strength you desire. I generally like it stronger than most folks seem to. It's perfect for customization. That was always one of the bad things about those "individual" powdered drink mixes. If you wanted it stronger then you had to make it with less water, but two packets would be more liquid than you wanted. If you wanted it less strong then you either had to throw out some powder or add more water, and again have more than you necessarily wanted.
With the MiOs, I get exactly how much water I want and then add till it's the strength I want. Perfect!

it doesn't to me, it's got splenda in it, but I don't generally use enough to make it that flavored.
Hmmm. The Splenda tastes gross to me in coffee, I wonder if that would wreck it.
I've tried the vitamin water and couldn't really stomach it. Maybe if you only add a bit though it would be ok.
I drink a lot of water anyway, I just wouldn't mind the equivalent of a lemon squeezed into a glass of water strength of flavor-wise. Guess I'll have to try it and see.

The Crystal Light packets are pretty nasty. Get the Propel packets instead. They taste much better.

It's not powdered. It's a concentrated liquid that you squirt into your water. Even better for mixing because it doesn't clump or anything.
