Sol Maté: Original

BevNET Review: Is it an energy drink? Or is it a soda? The answer is that it's a bit of both. Either way, this USDA certified organic carbonated soft drink is refreshingly well done. The tall, heavyweight 10 ounce bottle feels sturdy in your hand and gives off a premium vibe. The label is clean, but the logo is easy to lose in the amber colored backdrop provided by the liquid. As for the flavor, Sol Mate does not disappoint. It's much lighter than other mate products we've tried, with a mellow tea flavor that's complemented nicely by the carbonation and sugar. Overall, Sol Mate is a product that is very drinkable and while it will likely have success in health & natural stores to start, it definitely has mainstream potential.

This energy drink has got to be the best tasting enery drink I have had so far. It's not soo carbonated like all the others, it has got a smooth easy drinking taste that makes me want another. Good job!!!

The flavors do not work well together. Needs retooling.

This isn't what mate is supposed to taste like. There is a bit of underlying bitterness from the mate, but just doesn't do the flavor justice. It's USDA organic, and they use cane sugar, but that just doesn't help a product like this. I tasted way too much citric acid, and sure enough it's an ingrdient. The design and feel of the glass bottle is very nice. I like the ridges and print. I think it's a bad idea to say something like, "no jitters" on your bottle. It reminds people of what too much coffee feels like.
