Shoppers queue outside Teesside Aldi early morning to buy Prime Energy Sports Drink

Long queues have been seen outside Teesside Aldi stores to get the viral Prime drink before it sells out. People began queuing outside in the cold and dark as early as 5.30 a.m. on Thursday in the hopes of buying an elusive energy drink.

Prime Energy sports drink has been making rounds on the internet for the past two months. YouTube influencers KSI and Logan Paul founded the Prime hydration energy drinks. Aldi announced on Wednesday that Prime would be available for purchase for £1.99 per bottle. Although this is the recommended retail price, packs of Prime Hydration are being sold on Ebay for as much as £400.

This demonstrates its popularity among YouTube fans who watch KSI and Logan Paul's videos.


This is not the first time teenagers have rallied in supermarkets in order to get their hands on the drink. Kids and teenagers began queuing outside Asda supermarkets as early as 6 a.m. in October, to get their hands on it.


Long queues could be seen outside Aldi in Norton and Yarm this morning as people patiently waited to get inside. When one woman arrived at the Darlington Lane store in Norton at 7.45 a.m., she said the queues were already very long, but the staff were well prepared.

While many older people do not understand what all the hype is about, she claims that fans of former boxer and YouTubers KSI and Logan Paul have been following their work for years and are eager to participate. She went on to say that the younger generation has seen these drinks all over social media and is eager to get their hands on them.
