Xoca's Canned Drinks Combine Cacao Fruit Juice & Sparkling Water
Laura McQuarrie — January 4, 2020 — Lifestyle
Xoca's better-for-you sodas are made with the unique combination of 50% Ecuadorian cacao fruit juice and sparkling water, offering not just a refreshing flavor but also digestive benefits. The hybrid sodas are offered in Original, Mint and Ginger flavors, which are enhanced with natural ingredients and the sugar naturally comes from the juice contents of the drinks.
The 75-calorie canned drinks are touted for their functional benefits, as they are a source of prebiotics, Vitamins B1 and B3, plus theobromine, which the brand describes as "caffeine’s kinder cousin" and a natural stimulant with different, more gentle effects.
Notably, these functional sodas are made with upcycled cacao fruit juice, providing an opportunity for farmers in Ecuador to supplement their income by selling cacao fruit pulp as well as the seeds for chocolate.
