Super High-Carb Sport Drink Mix is designed to solve a prevalent problem for endurance athletes: fueling for big days of training or racing when preparing or carrying real food isn’t possible. Super High-Carb is powered by Cluster Dextrin™, a highly-complex carbohydrate that digests easily and steadily, like real food. One serving of Super High-Carb provides ~50g of carbohydrates and 200 calories of energy.

When to use

Great for:

  • Preload
  • During activity
How to use

4 scoops = ~100g carbs, 400 calories
2 scoops = ~50g carbs, 200 calories
1 scoop = ~25g carbs, 100 calories


As a starting point, add 2 scoops to an empty, dry bottle, partially fill with 150ml of water, shake well, and then add 240ml more water and shake again. For better mixing, let it sit for 15 minutes before use.

One serving gives you up to 50g of carbohydrates, plus the electrolytes lost in sweat, to fuel and hydrate your big efforts. Use more or less mix per bottle depending on your carb needs.

Frequently asked questions

What is Super High-Carb Drink Mix for?

It’s built for big efforts when eating solid food gets tricky. Each serving delivers 50g of fast-absorbing carbs and 200 calories, so you can fuel long sessions or races with fewer bottles, fewer bars, and fewer GI issues. Think of it as food, in liquid form, for when you're working hard and need to keep moving.

Did the formula change?

No–same formula, same total carbs, same performance.

What changed is the serving size and scoop to make it easier to measure and adjust your fueling.

Did the bag size change or just the serving size?

Nope! What changed is the serving size—it’s now 50g carbs instead of 100g—so you’ll see more servings per bag. The total carbs per bag are the same.

Why is the scoop bigger?

The scoop was updated to match the new serving size.

Instead of ~7 smaller scoops, you now use 2 larger scoops per 50g of carbs serving—so it’s easier to measure.

How does it work and why so many carbs?

Instead of relying on just one type of carb, we combine glucose-based carbs and fructose, which your body absorbs through different pathways. Most of the carbs come from a smooth-digesting complex carb, with a touch of fructose to help your body absorb and use more energy per hour. The result is steadier fueling, fewer stomach issues, and a way to take on big days without wrecking your gut.

What is cluster dextrin and why is it better?

Cluster Dextrin is a high-performance carbohydrate used in our Super High-Carb Drink Mix to deliver a lot of energy without wrecking your gut.

It’s a big, complex carb that breaks down slowly and evenly—kind of like a bus carrying tons of fuel in one smooth ride. Compare that to regular sugar, which is like a bunch of tiny cars. If you pack too many in at once, you get a traffic jam (aka GI distress).

Why it’s better: Cluster Dextrin gives you more calories per molecule, which means lower concentration in your gut and faster water absorption. That’s key for staying hydrated and fueled without bloating or stomach issues—especially during hard efforts or long days.

How much Super High-Carb drink mix do I need?

It depends on your effort, intensity, and what else you're eating or drinking. Start by replacing about half the calories you burn per hour—that’s usually 200–400 calories for most athletes.

2 scoops = 200 calories / 50g carbs

4 scoops = 400 calories / 100g carbs

Not sure where to start? Try 2 scoops in 16oz water and adjust based on how you feel.

Can I still customize my carbs per bottle?

You can still scale your intake based on your needs:

2 scoops = 50g carbs

4 scoops = 100g carbs

This update actually makes it easier to adjust up or down depending on your workout or race.

Can I use more than one serving in a single bottle?

Yes! You can adjust the amount of scoops based on your needs,

1 scoop = 100 calories / 25g carbs

2 scoops = 200 calories / 50g carbs

4 scoops = 400 calories / 100g carbs

For packets, you can mix 1, 1.5, or 2 pouches into one bottle. Just make sure the fluid-to-carb ratio works for your gut, your sweat rate, effort and conditions.

Do I need a separate bottle of Sport Hydration Drink Mix?

Sometimes. One serving of Super High-Carb has the same electrolytes as a serving of Sport Drink Mix, but way more fuel. That’s great when you need lots of calories in less fluid—like cooler days or long races where solid food is tough. But hydration and fueling aren’t always synced. On hot days, you might sweat more than one bottle can replace, even if your calories are covered. That’s where an extra bottle of Sport Drink Mix or plain water + Electrolyte Booster comes in. Think of it this way: Super High-Carb = a big hammer with less fluid. Sport Drink Mix = a smaller hammer with more fluid. Both are tools. Which one (or combo) you use depends on your effort, sweat rate, and gut. You can mix them together in one bottle, but do the math to hit your carb, sodium, and fluid targets—and test it in training to keep your gut happy. Still unsure? We’re here: info@skratchlabs.co.nz.

Will this upset my stomach or feel too heavy?

Not if you match the calories to your needs, avoid chugging, and hydrate properly. We built this to go down smooth, with no artificial nonsense and a science-backed carb that’s easier to absorb. Start slow, practice during training, and don’t chug 400 calories all at once without sipping steadily. Your gut will thank you.
