PRIME is ordinary now - Strawberry Hydration & Strawberry Banana [@NLi10]

 Iceland now sells PRIME for £2 a bottle, which is fairly reasonable considering the insanity when it first launched.  As the Iceland offers on food were very depressing (I forget how much BBQ season ruins their ranges) I got some sad Pizza and a few bits and bobs, and a couple of PRIME to drink that afternoon while ignoring the football.



First up I went for the Hitman coloured Strawberry Lemonade Hydration version.  It was nice enough but still has that slightly artificial taste they haven't managed to dial out.  The flavours are still strong enough that kids can't taste the coconut water and thus aren't aware that they are getting vitamins.  Seriously - this stuff is so much better than Cola I'd be making sure my teenagers had as much as they wanted (but none of the cans).




I mean - look at all that goodness! If there were a little more coconut (or it wasn't from powder like the version I made) then I'm sure it'd be even better for them.

The banana one I had on the following day and is essentially the same but with the odd banana sweet taste (Cavendish?) floating over the top - which is odd as the vitamin and energy profiles are different too.  Maybe the vitamin A hides better with bananas.

Either way - both are still decent enough treats and good to keep in the fridge for when tired, but I'd still much rather have a Pocari Sweat.
