Aussies have rated Gatorade as the top pick in Canstar Blue’s latest sports drinks ratings, with five stars for taste, effectiveness, variety and range and overall satisfaction.
Our review compares sports drinks on customer satisfaction, so you can find out what other Aussies think about the compared brands before you go ahead with a purchase. Think of it as asking hundreds of your closest mates which sports drink they think is best!
Canstar Blue surveyed 593 Australians for their feedback on the sports drinks they’ve purchased and consumed in the last three months.
The winning brand is the one that receives the highest overall satisfaction rating once all the scores from the overall satisfaction criteria are combined and averaged.
Brands must have received at least 30 responses to be included, so not all brands available in the market have been compared in this survey. The brands rated in this survey are listed below in order of best overall satisfaction.
