#gatorade zero

I had the pleasure of drinking a lime-cucumber Gatorade Zero for the first time, and I may have stumbled across one of life’s beautiful hidden Nectars. My initial concern was that the acidity and bold tartness I associate with lime and citrus-based juices would overpower the refreshing cool-side-of-the-pillow feeling cucumber offers. Fool I was and still am, for I hadn’t considered the opposite means of flavor acting in such flawless reciprocity! Prior to my first sip, I had suspected a blunder on the part of the Gatorade Research and Development department and the approval of their heritors. Rather, I was gobsmacked with sheer, unadulterated brilliance as the likely tumor-inducing electrolyte water graced, nay, danced through my mouth, teeth, and gullet. In this moment, the notion that each of my thoughts mattered, the words I spoke had volume, and that my actions could sculpt the world finally rang true. This is what it means to drink a SPORTS drink. Suffice to say, it is in my top 3 Gatorade Zero flavors now, and likely the contender of the greatest of all time.
