We all know drinking water is important – but hydration is about more than just ticking off glasses throughout the day. Staying properly hydrated with water helps support energy levels, focus, physical performance and even how you feel day to day. And when life gets busy (or you’ve got kids constantly on the move), it’s not always easy to keep up.
That’s where H&B Hydration Plus comes in. Developed by nutritionists and backed by science, these refreshingly tasty blends are designed to make hydration easy – and enjoyable. With no added sugar (they contain naturally occurring sugars instead) or added sodium, they’re created for everyday use, helping you stay on track without overcomplicating things. And yes – there’s even a kids’ option, perfect for little ones who don’t always remember to stop and have a drink. With no added salt, it can be a helpful option if you’re mindful of their salt intake too.
Here are our top picks – each with something to offer, plus a few simple flavour twists to help you mix things up…
Looking to add flavour to your water? This refreshing lemon and lime blend is designed to support everyday hydration with eight added vitamins plus calcium, potassium and magnesium – making it easier to build a simple, consistent routine. Ideal for busy days, desk hydration or when you’re bored of the plain water. Try it with ice, fresh mint and a slice of lemon or lime for a fresh twist.
Turn your water into something your gut will thank you for. This crisp apple blend combines electrolytes with 6g of added fibre, plus calcium to support gut health while helping you stay hydrated throughout the day. A great option if you’re looking to support your digestion alongside your daily routine. Mix with water or add ice and a splash of apple juice for an easy, refreshing sip.
Hydration is the foundation of healthy-looking skin. This raspberry and rose blend combines electrolytes with marine type I collagen, plus added vitamin C and biotin to support skin and hair health – helping you feel refreshed while supporting your glow from within. Perfect for adding a little extra to your daily routine, pour over ice with fresh berries for a drink that looks as good as it tastes.
Long days, busy schedules or big to-do lists? This dark berry blend pairs electrolytes with Cognizin® and vitamin B12 to support focus and brain health – helping you stay ready for your day on and ready to go. Enjoy chilled or topped with sparkling water when you need a refreshing reset.
Need a little help? This tropical pineapple and guava blend combines electrolytes with enXtra® – a scientifically studied Thai ginger extract that provides caffeine-free energy – alongside B vitamins to support energy levels, helping you feel refreshed and ready for whatever’s next. Ideal for afternoons, workouts or whenever you’re looking for energy support. Try it with ice, coconut water and a squeeze of lime for a flavour-packed boost.
Support your immune system while you hydrate. This elderberry blend combines electrolytes with 12mg elderberry fruit extract and vitamin D to help support your immune system and everyday wellbeing. Why not try adding a splash of juice for an extra-refreshing twist?
Busy day? Start here. This mixed berry blend contains 375mg magnesium from three forms – bisglycinate, citrate and malate to help reduce tiredness and support muscle function – it’s versatile and convenient to add into your routine. Try it as a berry spritz with crushed blackberries and sparkling water.
Designed for busy little bodies and growing minds, this gentle blend provides 60mg magnesium from bisglycinate and malate, plus added vitamin D to support daily wellness – all in a flavour they’ll actually enjoy. A simple way to support hydration for kids who don’t always stop to drink. Mix with water or add a splash of their favourite squash to keep things fun and familiar.
How often should you take electrolytes?
You don’t need to take electrolytes every day – how often you take them depends on your lifestyle and personal preference. While electrolytes are essential minerals that help your body function properly, most people can get what they need through a balanced diet and regular fluid intake. Electrolytes help keep fluids balanced and support important processes like nerve signalling and muscle movement.1 Minerals such as sodium, potassium, magnesium and calcium all act as electrolytes, which we get them the food and fluids we consume.
You tend to lose more electrolytes through sweat, especially during intense exercise.2 That’s why many electrolyte drinks are designed for high sweat loss and often contain higher levels of sodium to replace what’s lost in sweat, with some sugar to provide energy. But if you’re simply looking to stay hydrated day to day, those types of products aren’t always necessary. Choosing blends without added sodium or sugar can be a more balanced way to support your everyday routine – especially if you’re just trying to drink more water.
The final say
Hydration doesn’t need to be complicated – but it should work for your everyday life. Whether you’re looking to help your energy, stay focused or simply drink more water, small changes can make a difference. And with blends designed for different goals (and tastes), it’s easy than ever to build hydration into your routine.
