Uncle Matt’s Organic announced the launch of its newest functional innovation: Uncle Matt’s Organic Yerba Mate Energy Tea. 

Uncle Matt’s Organic Yerba Mate Energy Tea is brewed with organic Yerba mate leaves, organic lemon juice and organic green tea caffeine. With 100 mg of naturally derived caffeine in each serving, it provides a smooth, sustained lift, the company says. The tea is sweetened with organic wildflower honey for balanced taste, and at just 45 calories, it’s a better-for-you energy option, it adds.

“Uncle Matt’s continues to pioneer innovation in functional beverages,” said Susan McLean, vice president of marketing and innovation at Uncle Matt’s Organic, in a statement. “Our Yerba Mate Energy Tea is the first of its kind to be deep-steeped, cold-filled, and cold-shipped to preserve maximum flavor and functionality. It’s packed with antioxidants, contains no toxic pesticides, and is always refrigerated and ready-to-drink.”

Packaged in a 52-ounce bottle, Uncle Matt’s Organic Yerba Mate Energy Tea is available for purchase online at the company’s website, as well as nationwide at Whole Foods Market and Sprouts Farmers Market for a suggested retail price of $4.99.
