This year has been dominated by the trend of dirty sodas. The online world has been captivated by the idea of customizing carbonated drinks, with even major players like Taco Bell and Coffee Mate joining in. But before the rise of dirty sodas, there was #watertok. This TikTok trend emerged during the Stanley craze, showcasing users mixing various flavored drink powders to craft colorful beverages. While the trend has since waned, with 2025 on the horizon, you might be seeking new ways to stay hydrated. Remembering the lesson of #watertok, it’s important to find what works best for you when it comes to water consumption, even if that means adding a touch of flavor.
Ocean Spray has just introduced a revolutionary product that will help you effortlessly meet your daily hydration needs. Ocean Spray Launches Powdered Drink Mixes, partnering with Dyla to create powdered versions of their popular bottled flavors. These zero-sugar mixes are available in Cran X Grape, Cran X Strawberry, and White Cran X Peach, all made with real cranberry juice powder from Ocean Spray’s family farms. This convenient new product offers the same quality as the brand’s juice selection, now in a portable format.
The response to the Ocean Spray Drink Mixes has been enthusiastic, with social media users sharing their excitement over the innovative product. Some have suggested using the mixes for travel, noting their convenience for airport security and luggage space. You can find these drink mixes on Amazon, and they will be stocked at various retailers starting in January, with a gradual expansion to other major stores throughout 2025.
Additionally, there are simple ways to enhance powdered drink mixes to elevate your beverage experience. Try making a sparkling drink by adding carbonated water, or infuse your water with fruits like strawberries and blueberries before mixing in the powder. For a citrusy kick, squeeze in some lemon or lime juice. Experiment with combining different flavors or incorporating Ocean Spray’s new mixes into your favorite beverages for a cranberry twist.
