NEW YORK, N.Y. — Matcha industry game changer MatchaBar has brought another innovative drink to market – introducing MatchaBar: Hustle, the first Matcha Energy Drink powered by an exclusive blend of ceremonial grade matcha.
Ambition is running rampant; everyone wants to change the world, be an “entrepreneur,” or think differently…and that is a good thing! But the world doesn’t need more Energy (they’ve got it); they need Focus. MatchaBar delivers a Better Energy, a natural edge for today’s hustle. Due to its caffeine, l-theanine, and antioxidants, matcha has been positioned as a functional beverage – a healthy alternative to coffee/espresso or energy drinks.
More than a green drink, more than a loud energy drink, MatchaBar is a leader in the quickly growing matcha industry. Sourced from a fifth-generation family farm in Nishio, Japan, its ceremonial grade matcha is a proprietary blend that inspires peak mental performance, way beyond the leagues of caffeine. MatchaBar’s exclusive blend of matcha is made from shade-grown green tea leaves ground into a fine powder using a traditional stone granite mill.
MatchaBar: Hustle ($2.99 SRP) offers 120mg of caffeine from seven ingredients with hints of lemon +lime in sparkling matcha energy drink, available sweetened or with 0g sugar. The unsweetened MatchaBar: Hustle has only 5 calories!
Original and Sugar-Free MatchaBar: Hustle will be rolling out this spring at both natural and conventional retailers, and available nationwide at Whole Foods in June. At $2.99 a can, find it wherever energy drinks are sold, as the MatchaBar brothers crack into a growing category thirsty for disruption. All natural, and no – the Hustle doesn’t come with wings!
