Introducing Wow Cacao, the UK’s first cacao water. This innovative beverage, made from the pulp of a cacao fruit, offers a naturally refreshing and nutrient-packed alternative to traditional hydration drinks.
Each 275ml glass bottle of Wow Cacao contains the goodness of approximately five cacao pods, with absolutely no added flavours, sugars, or sweeteners. Available in both still and sparkling varieties, it has a unique tropical taste, at once mild but zesty.
The juice comes from Ecuador, the birthplace of cacao, where more than 5000 years ago its special properties were recognised by Andean tribes and widely used in ancient rituals and ceremonies. Hence its botanical name – “theobroma” – food of the Gods. Whatever you are doing – looking to refuel after exercise, share with friends or just quench your thirst – this special drink provides a healthy, low-calorie way to keep alert and hydrated.
Wow Cacao is not only good for your body but is an upcycled product. Cacao juice has typically been discarded in the process of fermenting beans to make chocolate. We are collecting and preserving the pulp and juice and finding new ways to utilise them.
SO WHY CHOOSE WOW CACAO?
- Great Taste: Unique, fruity, thirst-quenching
- Health Benefits: Superior hydration. Naturally rich in vitamin C and potassium and a source of magnesium, manganese and polyphenols
- Low in calories
- Sustainable: Made from cacao pulp that would otherwise be wasted
- Anybody: Suitable and safe for the whole family. Kids love it and finish the bottle.
- Any time: It’s addictive. Whenever your body says “drink”. Your secret pick-me-up and morning-after solution. It’s also great as a mixer.
Pam Thornton, Founder of Wow Cacao, says: “Anybody who spends time in the farms knows how great it is to smash open a pod and suck the pulp to re-hydrate. Hopefully Wow Cacao meets consumer demand for a drink that is somewhat similar to coconut water in taste, but healthier (no added sugars) and with an ethical and sustainable edge. As global demand for coconut water has risen, its production has involved widespread deforestation. In contrast, cacao water uses what we already have, minimising waste and preserving the planet’s resources.”
