Frequently Asked Questions

Ola Mate is a yerba mate–based sparkling functional drink, powered by adaptogens. We combine organic yerba mate with bright, refreshing flavors and thoughtfully selected functional ingredients to deliver smooth, steady energy without the crash.

Ola Mate is USDA Organic, made with naturally occurring caffeine, and crafted for everyday focus, clarity, and balance. No artificial flavors. No unnecessary additives. Just clean energy designed for real life.

Traditional energy drinks often rely on high sugar, synthetic caffeine, and additives that spike energy fast and drop it just as quickly. Ola Mate delivers a smoother, more balanced lift from yerba mate, complemented by adaptogens that support focus, mental clarity, and a sense of calm balance. Fewer highs, fewer lows, and a cleaner energy experience designed for real life.

Yes. Ola Mate is lightly carbonated, giving it a crisp, refreshing finish without being overly fizzy.

Yerba mate is naturally rich in antioxidants and plant compounds that support focus and steady energy. Many people choose it as a more balanced alternative to coffee or traditional energy drinks, offering clarity and alertness without the usual crash.

Organic caffeine is caffeine that comes from certified organic plant sources, rather than being synthetically produced. In Ola Mate, our caffeine comes from organic yerba mate and organic green tea extract, meaning it’s naturally occurring and sourced from plants grown without synthetic pesticides or chemicals.

Adaptogens are plant-based ingredients traditionally used to help the body adapt to everyday stress and support overall balance.

Ola Mate includes:

• Ashwagandha, commonly used to support stress management and a sense of calm balance
• Lion’s Mane mushroom, traditionally associated with focus, mental clarity, and cognitive support

Together, they complement yerba mate’s natural energy by supporting a more grounded, focused feeling, not overstimulation.

Each can of Ola Mate contains 3–4 grams of sugar, depending on the flavor. The sugar comes from organic juices and is balanced with natural sweeteners like stevia and monk fruit. No added refined sugar, just a light touch of sweetness for balance.

Ola Mate is great for morning focus or an afternoon pick-me-up when you want steady energy without the crash. Each can contains 150 mg of naturally occurring caffeine.
