Superfood Hydration
A pinch of salt.
Never a gram.
Sea water masquerading as fruit usually hides behind long, cluttered labels. We chose crisp fruit juice instead.

You're salty enough. Your drink shouldn't taste like it.
The salt is the simple part. We put every ingredient right on the label, with nothing proprietary to decode.
Less "lab experiment," more crisp fruit juice.
That's what happens when you skip the synthetic flavors and use a low-water desert crop instead. Mix one stick into water so cold the glass sweats. Watch it turn pink. The pink is the fruit, not a neon dye.

Don't drink your daily sugar limit by 2 PM.
Allulose and monk fruit carry most of the sweet, which keeps a stick at 20 calories. Then we add 3 grams of dextrose on purpose. Sodium and glucose get taken in together, so a little sugar gives the electrolytes a ride. Zero isn't always the right number. Three grams was ours.

Mother Nature’s ultimate survivalist.
Out where nothing else stands, the nopal cactus thrives on almost nothing.
Some mixes
Dyed pink.
Desert Drip
Pink.
Our pink is prickly pear, third on the label. Nothing on it is a dye.
Why isn't this everywhere?
Jon loved the prickly pear drinks he found in Utah. Almost nobody he knew had ever tried one.
So Michael, a PhD chemical engineer, built it into a stick. No caffeine, no artificial sweeteners, nothing along for the ride.

How the guarantee worksThe TL;DR on the Cactus.
So is there salt in it?
Yes, and it is on the label: sodium chloride, 210mg of sodium a stick. It is part of what does the hydrating. We just never saw the need for a gram of it.
Is this a sports drink?
No. Neon drinks belong in the 90s. This is real cactus fruit, pure aloe, and five essential minerals in a stick. Drink it to survive the 3 PM desk slump or a four-hour flight.
Does it have sugar?
3g added, from dextrose. Not for decoration: a little sugar helps the electrolytes get taken in, and zero isn't always the right call. 20 calories a stick.
Which part of the cactus?
The fruit. Prickly pear, the magenta one. Not the flat green pad.
Survive the desert.
Thrive anywhere.
One stick, one cold glass, and a plant that made its living on almost nothing.
