PRIME Hydration has created a social media frenzy amongst youngsters following the launch of the brand – including its latest Glowberry flavour. <\/p>\n

The\u00a0craze\u00a0has led to mobs of teens scrambling for a bottle in Asda stores and\u00a0one dad even forked out \u00a31,000\u00a0to buy his sons a pack for Christmas.<\/p>\n


\n<\/p>\n

Their popularity is largely due to the faces behind the drinks.<\/p>\n

Two huge YouTube stars\u00a0KSI\u00a0and\u00a0Logan Paul, who together have 140million followers, launched the Prime brand in January last year.<\/p>\n

At its launch in 2022 seven flavours were available – Ice Pop, Meta Moon, Blue Raspberry, Lemon Lime, Tropical Punch, Orange and Grape – we tried all of them at the time.<\/p>\n

But the pair recently launched a new edition called Glowberry.<\/p>\n

The latest edition of\u00a0Logan Paul\u00a0and\u00a0KSI's\u00a0controversial energy drink is meant to taste like sour apples and berries – so we've put it to the test.<\/p>\n

The standard retail price of a single 500ml bottle is meant to be just \u00a31.99.<\/p>\n

But while the price might be right, when we first tasted the drinks, we weren't overly impressed.<\/p>\n

One tasted like soapy water and the others tasted like a synthetic mish-mash of flavours.<\/p>\n

So I didn't have high hopes for the Glowberry alternative – but here goes.<\/p>\n

As soon as you open the bottle of the new drink, you're hit with its scent.<\/p>\n

To me, it smells just like a fruity bubble bath – not something you're meant to drink.<\/p>\n

But actually, when the first splashes of the pale white liquid hit your tastebuds you're hit by an overwhelming sweetness.<\/p>\n

And well, the taste is reminiscent of its description – sour apple.<\/p>\n

It actually tastes just like the Chewits sour apple sweets.<\/p>\n

But this apple flavour could be overpowering for some and I couldn't taste any of the berry flavour that is hinted on the packaging.<\/p>\n

It's not awful but it's by no means an adult drink – it's far too sweet and flat for my taste buds.<\/p>\n

Although it does make you understand why the kids run for it.<\/p>\n

Where can I buy Glowberry Prime?<\/h2>\n

The new flavour was expected to fly off the shelves of at\u00a0Aldi's shops across the UK earlier this month, with a cheaper \u00a31.99 price tag.<\/p>\n

Only one bottle per\u00a0Prime\u00a0obsessed fan was to be sold, due to its popularity – with rumours of people camping outside to make sure they got one.<\/p>\n

But customers were left disappointed after the budget chain delayed the launch.<\/p>\n

The\u00a0release was delayed due to stock issues, with the supermarket having to apologise to customers.\u00a0<\/p>\n

However, Aldi confirmed that the drink officially hit the shelves on Tuesday, October 17.<\/p>\n

But it's not just Aldi that has stocked the latest Prime energy drink, shoppers have found Glowberry Prime\u00a0in\u00a0Sports Direct for \u00a33.<\/p>\n

How did Prime get so popular?<\/h2>\n

During a live stream, the pair said they wanted to "rival the biggest companies on earth" with their products – including "Pepsi,\u00a0Coke, Gatorade and Powerade".<\/p>\n

The drink was then promoted around a string of high-profile celebrity boxing matches.<\/p>\n

KSI, whose real name is Olajide Olatunji, is one of the UK's most famous YouTube creators. <\/p>\n

He has also dabbled in celebrity boxing and music.<\/p>\n

Cheeky sellers on\u00a0Ebay\u00a0were later found to be listing a 12-pack for \u00a350,000, while single bottles are currently available for a whopping \u00a310,000.<\/p>\n
