Peach Mango Punch

GURU’s new Peach Mango Punch is made from our unique blend of natural ingredients that help increase focus and brain performance.

PEACH MANGO PUNCH FLAVOR EXPLOSION: Savor the great taste of Peach Mango with a fuzzy, fresh, and juicy peach flavor, the velvetiness of sweet mango and a refreshing touch of nectarine in every sip. GURU Peach Mango Punch natural energy drink has only 50 calories per can and packed with flavor. It’s high in energy to keep you energized!

VEGAN, GLUTEN FREE & NON-GMO: GURU is dedicated to bringing you good energy in every way possible, from our use of real ingredients, to how we source and produce our great-tasting energy drinks. That’s why our drinks are USDA organic, non-GMO, gluten free, vegan, and made with zero sucralose, and zero aspartame.

Fruit Punch

GURU’s Fruit Punch really packs a punch, all thanks to theanine, an amino acid found in green tea. When blended with caffeine, theanine creates a synergistic effect that powers up your brain and boosts your focus and brain performance. On top of packing a big brain boost, Fruit Punch is jam-packed with all-natural fruit punch flavour—a simply delicious blend of juicy tropical fruits, red berries, sweet cherry and vanilla—and the zesty freshness of yuzu.

Like all GURU drinks, this one is certified organic and contains no synthetic caffeine, artificial sweeteners, synthetic preservatives or artificial colours or flavours. All in all, it is the refreshing boost your brain has been waiting for—delivered with an amazing taste and with only 50 calories.

Tropical Punch

Made with Guayusa, a superleaf with natural energy-boosting and antioxidant properties, and combined with the rich flavours of passion fruit, guava, jack fruit and a refreshing hint of clementine, GURU’s Tropical Punch not only has a great taste, but also creates a smooth, balanced and sustained alertness with no peak and no crash.

With Tropical Punch, GURU’s blend of all-natural sweeteners comprised of organic stevia and monk fruit enables it to achieve a rounder taste, which combined with cane sugar, helps reduce calories to only 50 calories per can.
