POWERADE Orange Electrolyte Sports Drink, 28 fl oz Bottle

POWERADE Orange (28 fl oz) shows up in American grocery stores as the quintessential sports-drink bottle: a squeezable clear plastic container of vivid orange liquid with a bold brand logo promising electrolytes and performance. You’ll typically find it in the beverage aisle and refrigerated coolers near other sports drinks like Gatorade, adjacent to bottled water, electrolyte mixes, and energy drinks — often featured on endcaps during game-day or fitness promotions. This bottle fits shopping trips focused on athletic needs, team snacks, road-trip drink runs, or last-minute grabs before practice or a gym session. The brand positions itself toward active, goal-oriented consumers — weekend warriors, high-school athletes, and gym regulars — using a marketing angle of performance, grit, and measurable hydration (the “50% more electrolytes” claim is front-and-center). Label characteristics include health-halo language (electrolytes, vitamins B and C), bright kid-friendly colors and flavors, and no organic or “all-natural” certification; ingredient and preservative details are relegated to the fine print. In plain terms it’s a highly processed sports beverage: water sweetened with high fructose corn syrup, plus flavors, colorants, electrolytes, stabilizers and preservatives. Sensory notes: thin, sweet, and brightly citrusy with a lightly viscous mouthfeel from stabilizers, a glossy neon-orange appearance from Yellow 5/6, and a familiar cold-and-sip ritual — shaken or chilled on the sidelines, unscrewed between sets, or passed around at youth games. The 28 oz size supports extended use across a workout or shared short outings.
