For drink mix in my bottles, I like Skratch Labs High-Carb. I also like Skratch Labs raspberry chews, but I find them less convenient than gels or drink mix for on-bike fuel.
I was actually looking at the chews, so I am just going to try everything I guess and see what I like. I was looking for citrus, and the companies had orange but that's not the same as all the citrus flavors hitting the buds at one haha. Obviously they have to discontinue the good flavors. I have seen a bike blogs that Skratch is a very recommended brand, so I will also give some of there products a try. Just figuring out what works with me on the distance I normally travel.
