And speaking of trending soft drinks, Club-Mate, a natural, non-alcoholic energy drink made from fermented yerba mate, is revolutionizing the European market.

What Club-Mate is and why it's on the rise

Club-Mate is a non-alcoholic drink, low in sugar and with natural caffeine. A perfect option for those who want something different with a stimulating effect, without falling for energy drinks with overly sweet or artificial flavors.

Made from a fermented infusion of yerba mate (Ilex Paraguariensis), Club-Mate arrives with a unique flavor: refreshing, slightly bitter, and with a smooth, long-lasting energizing effect.

It can be drunk on its own, well chilled, or mixed into cocktails, easily adapting to different moments. In fact, its stimulating profile has made it a classic in the nights of Berlin, where it has earned a place in the social life of many young people as a distinct alternative that doesn't sacrifice energy or flavor.

A drink that accompanies you

There is increasing curiosity about exploring different ways to enjoy what we drink. In this context, Club-Mate has become a highly valued option for those looking for a functional and refreshing drink.

With a low sugar content (5.4 g/100 ml), no artificial additives, and 100% plant-based ingredients, Club-Mate adapts to different profiles:

• Active people who need an extra boost of energy without resorting to coffee.
• Students or professionals looking to stay focused.
• Consumers interested in natural, sustainable, and vegan products.

Properties of yerba mate: natural energy and functional benefits

Yerba mate is a plant known for its ability to stimulate the central nervous system, improve concentration, and reduce fatigue, thanks to its caffeine and tannin content.

It is also associated with digestive and antioxidant benefits, making it a functional alternative for those who want to take care of themselves without giving up flavor. Club-Mate contains natural caffeine (0.02 g/100 ml), providing a smooth and consistent effect, without the spikes of other energy drinks.

From Germany to the world: the history of Club-Mate

Although mate originates from South America, it was in Germany that this ready-to-drink version was born. It all began in 1924, when Georg Latteier created “Sekt-Bronte,” a mate-tea-based drink that, over time, would evolve into Club-Mate under the care of the Loscher brewery in Bavaria.

Today, Club-Mate is a phenomenon in Germany and other European countries, and it is gradually starting to carve out a place for itself in new markets.
