AUSTIN, TEXAS — July 7, 2026 — Mindful Drops, the company pioneering the world’s first unflavored liquid L-theanine drops designed for fast-acting calm and seamless versatility in any drink, today announced its official launch. Created for modern consumers seeking focus without overstimulation, Mindful Drops introduces a new category of functional wellness—one that meets people exactly where they are: in their daily rituals.

Mindful Drops is a functional wellness brand spotlighting L-theanine as its hero ingredient—a naturally occurring amino acid found in green tea, including matcha, long associated with a calm, focused state of mind. Each serving delivers 200 mg of L-theanine in a quick, one-second squeeze, designed to be added to coffee, matcha, tea, water, or any beverage without altering taste.

“During our time building Jade Leaf Matcha, we saw so many coffee drinkers turn to matcha for its steady, calm energy—but often at the cost of a ritual they genuinely loved,” said Marc St Raymond, Co-Founder of Mindful Drops. “Others tried functional coffee blends, but that usually meant altering the taste of something they already enjoyed. We created Mindful Drops so people don’t have to compromise. You can support calm, clear focus without giving up your coffee—and it doesn’t alter the flavor. You just add it to what you’re already drinking.”

The launch of Mindful Drops comes at a time when consumers are increasingly seeking functional solutions to manage stress, improve focus, and optimize their relationship with caffeine. While L-theanine has long been studied for its role in promoting relaxation without drowsiness, Mindful Drops is the first to deliver it in a convenient, unflavored liquid format designed for immediate integration into daily life.

Founded by matcha industry veterans Marc St Raymond and Jules Reyes, along with founding team member Evan St Raymond, Mindful Drops builds on over a decade of experience in the matcha industry. The founding team previously helped build and scale Jade Leaf Matcha into the number one-selling matcha brand in the United States, culminating in its successful acquisition in 2020.

“Mindful Drops was born from a simple question: How do we bring matcha’s calm, focused feeling to any drink?” said Jules Reyes, Co-Founder. “This product is the result of years spent immersed in the Japanese tea industry and understanding the role L-theanine plays in the experience people love.”

Designed for flexibility, Mindful Drops can be used in a variety of ways—from smoothing out the edge of morning coffee to supporting moments of stress throughout the day. The product is particularly popular among coffee drinkers, athletes, founders, busy parents, and high-performing individuals looking to sustain focus without the common tradeoffs of caffeine.

Early testers have reported feeling more even, steady, and clear-headed—often within 20 to 40 minutes of use—without the drowsiness typically associated with calming supplements.

Mindful Drops will be available for purchase online at mindfuldrops.com, Amazon, and TikTok Shop starting July 7, 2026.

Founded by industry veterans with deep roots in matcha, the company is on a mission to help people feel better without changing their daily rituals.
