Thirst Electrolytes is recently becoming one of Ireland’s standout functional hydration brands, offering a clean, refreshing solution for anyone with a busy, active lifestyle. Built around a balanced blend of essential electrolytes and real fruit flavour, each single-serve stick contains sodium, potassium, magnesium, and calcium to help replenish what the body loses through sweat. With only 12 calories and a simple pour-shake-hydrate format, Thirst is designed for travellers, gym-goers, athletes, and everyday consumers seeking reliable, great-tasting hydration on the go.

Nationwide

Now stocked in over 500 retail locations nationwide, Thirst has quickly earned trust across gyms, cafés, convenience stores, pharmacies, hotels, spas, and on-the-go retail spaces. Supported by major distributors and strong retail partnerships, the brand continues to scale as demand grows for functional, convenient hydration solutions. Retailers value its bold shelf presence, long shelf life, and exceptional repeat purchase rates.

Thirst’s lineup features six flavours — Orange, Mixed Berry, Lemon-Lime, Pink Lemonade, Blue Raspberry, and Watermelon — as well as mixed boxes tailored for retail flexibility. Each flavour is crafted to deliver performance-driven hydration that tastes as good as it performs. Expanding beyond electrolytes, the brand recently launched Ireland’s first single-serve creatine sachet, bringing convenient, clinically backed performance supplementation to the mass market.

Co-founders Thomas Carty, a professional heavyweight boxer, and Laurence Murray, a lifelong fitness and flavour enthusiast, combine elite sports insight with modern lifestyle branding to create products that genuinely meet consumer needs. With a fast-growing community, strong retail momentum, and category-first innovations, Thirst is positioning itself as Ireland’s next defining brand in functional hydration and performance nutrition.
