Performance nutrition brand Grenade has added three new flavours to its Grenade Energy line of drinks.  With confirmed listings in Tesco, Motor Fuel Group, GAP and Amazon, new flavours include Cherry Bomb (sour cherry), Sun of a Beach (tropical pineapple, orange & coconut), and Berried Alive (strawberry & blueberry flavour).  The caffeine used to power the drink is derived from natural coffee beans, and the beverages are free from preservatives and artificial colours and, according to the company, "packs the same punch as two espressos".   Grenade Energy features zero sugar, zero calories and contains plant-based BCAAs, plus electrolytes and B vitamins.  “With bold on-trend flavours, these three new additions fit seamlessly into the Grenade product portfolio, perfect for keeping people powered, no matter what life throws at them,” the team said.  Grenade Energy will retail from £1.99, first launching online on 15 March, and on Amazon, Motor Fuel Group and GAP in April. Tesco will offer select lines from the end of May.
