BROKEN ARROW, OK – June 29, 2026 – Botanic Tonics, the leader in kava-centric botanical supplements, today announced the nationwide availability of KavaMaté, its botanical energy formula that unites two ancient botanical traditions: noble kava root and yerba mate. This distinctive pairing delivers sustained, grounded energy without the crashes and jitters associated with conventional stimulants, designed specifically to meet consumer demand for clean, plant-based alternatives.

KavaMaté joins Botanic Tonics’ flagship tonic feel free CLASSIC at retailers including Murphy USA and select retailers nationwide. 

“feel free CLASSIC is our flagship and a perennial NielsenIQ top SKU in the energy and supplement category, with hundreds of millions of servings sold” said Chris Elebesunu, Chief Sales Officer at Botanic Tonics. “KavaMaté now joins feel free CLASSIC at retailers nationwide, giving consumers a second botanical formulation from the brand they already trust.”

As KavaMaté expands to Murphy USA and retailers nationwide, consumers can take advantage of a variety of limited-time promotions being offered at participating national retailers throughout the summer.

A Modern Energy Offering, Powered by Trusted Botanicals

KavaMaté’s innovative formula brings together two revered botanicals with deep cultural roots that have been trusted for centuries. Noble kava root, ceremonially cherished throughout Pacific Island cultures for more than 3,000 years, provides mental clarity while maintaining calm. Yerba mate, valued by indigenous South American communities for centuries, delivers natural sustained energy.

Together, these botanicals create an energy experience greater than the sum of its parts. The combination of noble kava root and yerba mate provides a balanced energy profile that creates Botanic Tonics’ signature “chilled energy:” a balanced state of calm, ideal for transforming ordinary moments into opportunities for presence.  

More Ways to Experience feel free

Originally launched in select markets, strong consumer demand is bringing KavaMaté to retailers nationwide, marking a significant milestone for Botanic Tonics as the market for clean, recognizable, plant-based energy alternatives continues to grow exponentially.

The Botanic Tonics Difference
feel free CLASSIC and KavaMaté contain no synthetic active ingredients, no alcohol, and no chemical extracts. All Botanic Tonics products are manufactured in the U.S. at an FDA-registered, cGMP-certified, and Kosher-certified facility and undergo multiple quality and safety tests for consistency and compliance. Botanic Tonics continues to lead the energy and supplement category in education and transparency through extensive consumer education. For more information or to find a retailer, visit BotanicTonics.com.
