Organic cocoa and guarana specialist Koawach has announced the launch of an energy drink which is claimed to be the world’s first caffeinated soft drink made with cocoa fruit juice.
Koawach said it had collaborated with Koa, a Swiss-Ghanaian startup that specialises in upcycling cocoa fruit pulp, to create the beverage, which reportedly has 75mg of natural caffeine per can but less sugar than typical energy drinks.
The range comes in the varieties Sun Burst (tangy grapefruit), Citrus Wave (zesty lime) and Tropic Ocean (passionfruit).
Commenting on the launch, Koa co-founder and managing director Anian Schreiber said: “With Koalimo, Koawach has created a drink that brings together exquisite flavour, energising functionality, and a positive, sustainable impact on people and the planet”.
The drink is being launched online and in stores from late November.
