What Should You Drink During a Round of Golf?

For most golfers, the best starting point is simple: water. From there, conditions and personal needs determine whether electrolytes, carbohydrates, or caffeine make sense.

Water

Water is the foundation of on-course hydration. Bring enough to drink throughout the round and refill when possible.

Electrolyte Drinks

Electrolytes can be useful when sweat losses are significant, particularly during long, hot, or walking rounds.

Sports Drinks

Traditional sports drinks often combine fluids, electrolytes, and carbohydrates. That can be useful for some golfers, but others may prefer a zero-sugar option.

Caffeinated Drinks

Caffeine can support alertness, but dose and timing matter. Too much can be uncomfortable, especially for golfers who are sensitive to stimulants.

A Golf-Specific Option

Holos Golf Performance was designed around the demands of 18 holes, combining electrolyte hydration with 80 mg natural caffeine, Suntheanine L-Theanine, and other focus-support ingredients in a zero-sugar stick pack.
