Koia unveils line of oat milk-based functional beverages

Plant-based beverage brand Koia has released a new line of adaptogenic drinks, Koia Thrive.

Koia says that the ‘allergen-free’ offering is made with oat milk, functional adaptogenic herbs and nine of the essential amino acids for a complete plant-based protein. The beverages are also said to contain potassium and C8 MCT oil.

Koia Thrive is available in three flavours: Miracle Matcha, with matcha powder, spirulina and moringa; Chill Chocolate, containing ashwagandha extract and l-theanine; and Golden Turmeric, featuring turmeric powder, ground ginger and black pepper.

According to Koia, Golden Turmeric offers gut and anti-inflammatory-supporting benefits. Meanwhile, the Los Angeles-based brand claims that the Chill Chocolate ingredients help increase cognitive performance and aid with relaxation and sleep.

“Now more than ever consumers are stressed, overwhelmed and facing new challenges on a daily basis,” said Chris Hunter, co-founder and CEO of Koia.

“Koia Thrive was created to help manage today’s ever-changing environment, with three functional flavours to meet today’s many demands.”

All Koia products are reportedly Non-GMO Project Verified and free from dairy, soy and gluten.

The beverages are available, for an RRP of $3.99, at Whole Foods, Sprouts and other natural and specialty locations.
