Buddha Water has launched a new brand of sophisticated, premium soft drinks made using pure Scandinavian birch sap.
Available in a variety of natural flavours – including hibiscus, lemon and lime, mango, cherry, cranberry and original – Buddha Water has claimed that the brand “is the only range of sparkling water drinks”.
The Finnish-sourced birch sap is only tapped during two weeks of the year, in the spring. The precious sap, known for its detoxifying and cleansing properties, has a slightly sweet taste with a gentle and woody aroma, Buddha Water said.
As well as being low in calories, Buddha Water has claimed that it comes with an array of benefits that make it the drink of choice for health-conscious consumers. Birch water sap contains saponins, which are said to have powerful cholesterol reducing properties, and it is also considered to have powerful hydrating and detoxifying effects. It is rich in vitamin c and potassium, both of which can contribute to helping relax the mind and body and promoting a sense of calm. High in nutrients like most plant waters, it can also help to promote healthy skin and flush out unwelcome toxins.
Catherine Mulcahy of YourTonic, the exclusive agent for Buddha Water in the UK, said: “We are really excited to be launching Buddha Water in the UK. We really do believe it will be the next super drink. Buddha Water is a unique soft drink that is a natural alternative to the usual sugary offerings, and alcohol… [and] has added health benefits too! The perfect thirst quencher, its six flavours mean that there is something to suit all taste buds, and every occasion. More than a birch water drink, it is the refreshingly different soft drink we’ve all have been waiting for.”
Available in a convenient, slimline 250ml can, each of the six variants has a recommended retail price of £1.89 per can.
