KOKEE Hydration Drink Review
A Simple Addition to Your Range Bag That Makes a Big Difference
Long days on the range take more out of you than most people realise. Standing in the sun, concentrating for hours and moving between stages all add up. Staying hydrated isn’t just about comfort. It directly affects concentration, decision-making and performance.
I’ve been using KOKEE Hydration for about a week, during both training sessions and long days on the range. I purchased it myself, so this review is based entirely on my own experience with no sponsorship or influence from the manufacturer.
First Impressions
KOKEE comes as a powder in convenient sachets with a scoop included. The price is excellent, making it an affordable option for anyone who spends regular time outdoors or on the range.
I chose the Raspberry flavour and found it genuinely enjoyable. It isn’t overly sweet or artificial, which makes it easy to drink throughout the day.
Mixing
The recommended mix is two scoops in 750 ml of water.
Personally, I prefer a slightly lighter flavour, so I mix two scoops in one litre of water instead. For me, this produces a refreshing drink that is easy to sip continuously without becoming overpowering.
Service
The staff at Kokee are amazing and are on the ball. I had a small mix up with my order (entirely my fault) it was sorted instantly. The product was delivered withing three days.
Performance on the Range
This is where KOKEE impressed me.
After a full day of training, I found myself feeling noticeably fresher and maintaining good energy levels right through to the end of the day. Instead of reaching for another coffee or sugary drink, I simply kept drinking my KOKEE mix throughout the session.
It keeps thirst under control, it tastes great, is easy to drink, and seems to do exactly what a hydration product should do.
Final Verdict
Although I’ve only been using KOKEE for about a week, my first impressions have been very positive. It’s affordable, tastes good, mixes easily and has already become part of my standard range kit. If you spend long hours training outdoors, competing, hiking or working in the heat, it’s well worth trying.
Would I buy it again? Yes, without hesitation.
