Maurten Drink Mix 320 Caf 100 is an energy drink mix with Hydrogel Technology, designed for endurance athletes who need to combine carbohydrates, caffeine, and hydration in a single serving.
Each serving provides 80 g of carbohydrates and 100 mg of caffeine when dissolved in 500 ml of water, making it particularly useful for intense training, racing, and situations where it helps to reinforce energy intake with an added stimulant effect.
Maurten describes this product as a solution for high-intensity training and racing, using its Hydrogel Technology to help move the drink through the stomach to the intestine, where water, salt, and carbohydrates are absorbed.
The brand also states that it has managed to control the bitterness typically associated with caffeine without adding acids, flavours, or colourings, while keeping the formula simple and functional.
The listed ingredients include maltodextrin, fructose, caffeine, sodium alginate, pectin, salt, and sodium bicarbonate.
The Caf 100 version is suitable for vegetarians and vegans and comes in a box of 14 servings.
This product fits well into nutrition strategies for marathon, triathlon, endurance cycling, and long sessions where drinking calories and caffeine may be more practical than relying on several separate sources.
It is also important to note that this is a high-caffeine product and is not recommended for children or for pregnant or breastfeeding women, according to product information published by Maurten and retailers.
