The powdered version of Prime Hydration has a similar taste to the liquid version, but it may taste a bit sweeter. The interest in the drink, specifically among children, has parents, schools and health experts concerned with the impact it could have on kids.

This has lead to a number of schools across Australia outright banning the products from their grounds. Despite being caffeine-free, bottles of Prime Hydration — the one available in supermarkets — have a disclaimer on its containers, saying it's not suitable for children under the age of 15, pregnant or breastfeeding women.

KSI was criticised early in his YouTube career for repeatedly making jokes about sexual assault in his videos. A can of Prime Energy — the drink which isn't available at supermarkets — contains almost double the legal limit.
