An opened Salty Syrup Vanilla Maple packet on stone beside its three ingredients: a dish of maple syrup, pink salt and a bottle of vanilla extract

Inside one packet

  • Organic maple syrup · Pink salt · Pure vanilla extract
  • Per 40 g packet: 27 g carbs · 280 mg sodium · 90 mg potassium · 110 cal
  • The Caffeinated version adds 50 mg of caffeine from organic guarana.

Tapped, not manufactured.

  • Tap a maple tree and collect the raw sap.
  • Evaporate the water. What's left is maple syrup.
  • No synthetic inputs. The carbs and minerals come straight from the tree.

Two sugars, two ways in.

  • Maple's natural sugar (sucrose) splits into glucose and fructose, about half and half.
  • Your gut absorbs each one through its own pathway.
  • Two pathways open: carbs get in faster than with glucose alone. Most modern endurance fueling uses this idea.

280:90, our electrolyte blend.

  • 280 mg sodium and 90 mg potassium in every packet.
  • Our formula, not something the tree makes.
  • Set for real fueling, not just flavor.

Five essential minerals, zero lab work.

  • Manganese
  • Potassium
  • Magnesium
  • Zinc
  • Calcium
  • Maple syrup naturally has manganese, potassium, magnesium, zinc and calcium.
  • No fortification. They're already in the sap.

Antioxidants, straight from the tree.

  • Published studies find about 20 to 50+ antioxidant compounds in maple syrup, depending on the study and the syrup grade.
  • No lab additions, no synthetic add-back.

Taste the science.

Maple syrup, pink salt and vanilla. Nothing made in a lab.
