At Escapa, we know that nutrition during your bike workouts is of the utmost importance. That’s why we’re introducing theMaurten Isotonic Drink Mix 320 (100 mg Caffeine) from the exclusive Maurten nutrition brand, developed using natural ingredients and formulated with carbohydrates that your body can easily tolerate. It has a neutral taste. The Maurten Isotonic Drink Mix 320 (100 mg Caffeine ) has it all. A product free of any acids, artificial colors, or added flavors. By using hydrogel technology, we’ve managed to mask the bitterness of the caffeine.
WHY CAFFEINE?
Caffeine has been shown to promote alertness and reduce the perception of exertion and pain. These properties can be beneficial for athletic performance. The DRINK MIX 320 CAF 100 can be used to increase caffeine levels—either on its own or in combination with other sources of caffeine—to achieve sufficient caffeine levels during activity.
ENERGY CONTENT
Studies have shown that our bodies can utilize up to 90 grams of carbohydrates per hour. One packet of DRINK MIX 320 CAF 100, mixed with 500 ml of water, contains 80 grams of carbohydrates.
HOW DOES IT WORK?
When you mix DRINK MIX 320 CAF 100 with water, you get a hydrogel sports drink containing a high concentration of carbohydrates and caffeine. The drink instantly turns into a hydrogel when it comes into contact with stomach acid. The hydrogel allows for a smooth and continuous transport of the drink through the stomach to the intestine, where the water, minerals, and carbohydrates are absorbed.
INSTRUCTIONS
Mix the contents of each packet with 500 ml of water and shake well until dissolved (30–60 seconds). Be precise; effectiveness depends on the ratio of 1 packet to 500 ml of water. This sports drink mix is designed to be mixed with water containing less than 100 mg/L of calcium. Consume the sports drink within 24 hours.
HOW TO USE
Use DRINK MIX 320 CAF 100 only for shorter periods, or combine it with other Maurten products to ensure you have enough carbohydrates during your workout.

New Ingredient
The new Drink Mix contains a minimal amount of sodium bicarbonate. Many sports drinks are acidic and can damage tooth enamel. Thanks to the sodium bicarbonate in Drink Mix, a neutral pH (no lower than pH 6) is maintained.
Easier to drink
Lower viscosity and improved texture: Drink Mix is now less thick, making it easier to consume more carbohydrates during workouts and Carreras.
More reliable even with hard water
Drink Mix powder is more tolerant of high calcium levels in water—specifically, 80 mg of calcium per liter—so it dissolves more easily. With Drink Mix, your hydration is more reliable, even when you’re on the road for a Carrera and have to drink water that’s different from what you’re used to.
The science behind the product
A visceral reactionDrink Mix is a pH-responsive liquid that reacts when mixed with 500 ml of water. When it comes into contact with stomach acids, an instant reaction occurs that turns it into a hydrogel. This hydrogel encapsulates the carbohydrates, allowing the fuel to pass through the stomach and into the intestines. Once there, the hydrogel dissolves, releasing the carbohydrates so the body can absorb them.
Internal Well-BeingComfort matters. During exercise, consuming large amounts of liquid can cause a sloshing sensation in the stomach, leading to discomfort and limiting performance. By transforming from a liquid to a hydrogel, Drink Mix makes it easier to consume liquid fuel with high concentrations of carbohydrates while maintaining the same level of performance during high-intensity exercise.
