New Product Launches this Year

Beverage Daily has taken a look at some of the new products hitting the shelves around the globe this month.  There were a dozen products in the list which included among them a product with coconut-based ingredient.  The product, Koia Keto, will be launched this month in the US.  

Koia Keto is high-fat, low carb beverage that claims to help achieve ketosis (where the body burns fat instead of carbohydrates for energy) as part of the keto diet.  The drinks are primarily a coconut cream based with 14g of MCT oil, 22g of fat, 12g of plant-based protein (pea, rice and chickpea), with a total of five net carbs.  They contain no added sugar and reach a ratio of 74% fat, 18% protein and 8% carbs.   

Koia Keto comes in a range of three indulgent flavors - chocolate brownie, cake batter and caramel creme - chosen because followers of the low-sugar keto diet usually have to sacrifice sweet desserts.  Koia Keto is available exclusively in Whole Foods for the first six months of 2019, before expanding to other retailers later in the year.
