Pre-measured sachets solve the problem of scooping powder into bottles at 5am or mid-ride at an aid station. Tailwind Rapid Hydration in the 12-pack box format puts single servings into tear-open packets that fit in jersey pockets, gym bags, and desk drawers. Each sachet delivers 45 calories alongside 320mg of sodium, 90mg of potassium, and 12mg of Vitamin C. The formula targets shorter efforts and everyday hydration where you need electrolyte replacement without the full calorie load that endurance products provide. Think recovery rides, gym sessions, hikes, and busy workdays where plain water doesn't quite cut it.

Rapid Hydration absorbs faster than water alone by using your body's active transport mechanisms to move fluid into your system efficiently. The light cane sugar sweetness facilitates this absorption while keeping flavors clean and easy to drink throughout the day. No artificial sweeteners, no salty aftertaste, no diet drink bitterness that builds up over multiple bottles. Mix one sachet with 16-24oz of water depending on how strong you prefer the flavor. The powder dissolves immediately without clumping or leaving residue in your bottles, and rinses clean without the sticky film some electrolyte drinks leave behind.

The 12-pack works well for sampling flavors before committing to the larger 25-serving bag, or for keeping portions stashed in multiple locations where you need grab-and-go hydration. Flavor options include Lemon Lime and Strawberry Lemonade, both delivering the same light fruit character that Tailwind built the Rapid Hydration line around. If you're eating solid food during activity, doing gym work, or keeping efforts under an hour, this formula provides electrolyte support without the 200-calorie servings designed for multi-hour endurance efforts. The distinction matters when you're watching total calorie intake or simply don't need that much fuel.... Read More
