Sports Drink Taste Test
By: Kaitlyn Schauske
Our Challenge
Our Research
My groups had some ups and downs about doing the sports drinks. The group was practically split in half. Two of us wanted to do sports drinks and the other half wanted to do grapes. In the end the sports drink side prevailed and the grapes died. We decided a flavor after that. We planned on getting an Orange G2 Gatorade and Regular Orange Thirst Quencher Gatorade and our question that we came up with was "Does having less calories inflict the flavor?"
My Hypothesis
The Experiment
The steps:
1.) Collect materials. (3 trays, 300 cups, I Pad, sheet of paper, regular Gatorade, and G2 Gatorade)2.) Fill 200 cups half way with regular Gatorade and the other 100 with G2 Gatorade. (Save extra)
3.) Place cups on trays according to the randomizer.
4.) Have the taste tester taste all three of the drinks. Making sure they tell you which one tasted different.
5.) Have the taste tester record what they say on the I Pad google form and have your recorder of the randomizer write it down.
6.) Repeat steps 3-5 for every taste tester.
