What Is drinkadapt.com? The Story Behind Adapt SuperWater

If you landed here after typing drinkadapt.com into a browser — or saw it on a product, a locker room shelf, or a teammate's bag — you're in the right place. drinkadapt.com redirects to Adapt SuperWater, our home on the internet. Same brand, same products, same story. Just a shorter URL we own so people don't have to remember all of adaptsuperwater.com on the first try.

But since you're here: let's actually explain what we are, why we exist, and what's in the formula — because this is the kind of brand where those questions have real answers.

The Brand Behind drinkadapt.com

Adapt SuperWater is a clean functional hydration company founded in 2019 in Austin, Texas. We make electrolyte drink mixes for three things: hydration, recovery, and sleep. That's it. No energy drinks, no pre-workout stimulants, no 40-ingredient superfood blends. We built Adapt around the idea that most hydration products are overengineered with the wrong stuff and underdelivering on the things that actually matter.

Every product we make is NSF Certified for Sport — which means it's third-party tested for banned substances and verified to contain exactly what the label says. That matters for professional and collegiate athletes. It matters for anyone who takes what they put in their body seriously.

How Adapt Started — The Actual Reason This Exists

I'm Richie Harrington, founder of Adapt. I played quarterback at Oregon State. My college career ended the way a lot of athletic careers do — not on my terms. A series of injuries and surgeries left me in a frustrating cycle: recover, rehab, recover again. The options handed to me were either synthetic, loaded with junk, or something I wasn't willing to put in my body long-term.

So I started looking for something cleaner. And when I couldn't find it, I built it.

The original version of Adapt included hemp extract, which at the time was a legitimate recovery ingredient gaining traction in sports science. We were actually the first hemp beverage to receive NSF Certified for Sport status — and the first sold directly to professional sports teams. Since then, we've evolved the formula. The current line is CBD-free and built around a clean electrolyte-first approach — because that's where the real recovery science is, and that's what athletes and everyday people actually need to perform and recover consistently.

What's Actually in Adapt SuperWater

This is where most hydration brands fall apart. The ingredient list tells you everything. Here's what you'll find in Adapt — and just as importantly, what you won't.

What's in it:

  • 1,200mg of electrolytes per serving — sodium, potassium, and magnesium in functional doses
  • B vitamins (B3, B5, B6, B12) to support cellular energy and metabolic function
  • Vitamin C for antioxidant support
  • Natural flavoring — real fruit, no artificial candy-sweet aftertaste

What's not in it:

  • No maltodextrin
  • No sucralose or artificial sweeteners
  • No added sugar
  • No artificial colors or fillers

If you've been burned by hydration products that claim to be clean and then bury maltodextrin or sucralose three lines down the ingredient list — this is the alternative.

The Two Formulas Worth Knowing About

Adapt SuperWater currently runs two core products. They're designed to work together as a full-day hydration and recovery system, but both stand on their own.

ADAPT Recovery is the daytime formula. Built for hydration before, during, and after training. The 1,200mg electrolyte blend hits the sodium-potassium-magnesium ratio your body needs to absorb and retain fluids — not just dump them. Mango flavor. Light, clean taste. Nothing that makes you feel like you're drinking a candy bar.

ADAPT Sleep is the nighttime formula. Sleep is when your body does most of its actual recovery work — and most people aren't setting that process up to succeed. The Sleep formula includes magnesium glycinate, tart cherry powder, L-theanine, and chamomile extract. No melatonin. That's intentional — melatonin is a hormone, and using it nightly can interfere with your body's own production over time. This formula works with your natural sleep cycle, not around it.

Together, they cover the full recovery arc: perform, recover, sleep, repeat. You can find both at adaptsuperwater.com/collections/all.

Who Actually Uses Adapt SuperWater

The short answer: anyone who trains seriously, travels regularly, or just cares about what they put in their body.

We've been on the shelves of professional sports locker rooms. We've been used by collegiate athletes who need NSF certification to stay compliant. We've been in gym bags, carry-on luggage, and kitchen cabinets of people who've never played a sport professionally but take their daily performance and recovery seriously.

The common thread is that these are people who read labels. People who've tried other hydration products and gotten tired of the sucralose aftertaste, the maltodextrin bloat, or the ingredient list that reads like a chemistry textbook. Adapt is for people who want clean and want it to actually work — not one or the other.

Why drinkadapt.com? And Where We're Going

We own the domain drinkadapt.com because adaptsuperwater.com is a lot to say to someone at the gym or shout across a locker room. Short domains make sharing easier. Both take you to the same place.

As a brand, we're still founder-led, still lean, and still building. The relaunch of Adapt SuperWater is focused on what we've always stood for: premium ingredients, honest formulas, real results. No overclaiming. Just the cleanest hydration product we know how to make, certified to back it up.

We're also committed to reducing single-use plastic dependence — single-serve powder packets mean you fill your own bottle, not buy another disposable one. That's both a product decision and a values decision. They happen to align.
