Salty Honey, how you thrill me...If you haven’t tried Sodii yet (flavoured hydration salts) you’re missing out, we love them in the office. They’re just opened a pop-up in Paddington for the week where they’ve got Sodii flavours on tap (go for salty mandarin) and their newest collab with Nature’s Honey, a salty honey pouch. Great for runners. 8:00am - 2:00pm31 Norfolk St Paddington 2021
