The team at Tate & Lyle developed a refreshing apple-cucumber energy drink using OPTIMIZER STEVIA®3.10, a stevia extract to bring the right sweetness. In addition, stevia-based natural flavouring, ZOLESSE® Natural Flavour was used to modify the flavour profile. As an added benefit, PROMITOR® Soluble Fibre was included to offer the product a great mouthfeel and a ‘source of fibre’ claim.
