A little RTD treat for myself for my walk home from grocery shopping this past week…
I definitely think this tastes much more of blueberry than haskap, but I also think that makes perfect sense. Though haskap is a little more prevalent here in Quebec (similarly to how Saskatoon berries are more well know in Saskatchewan), it’s still a more novel berry so it’s just commercially safer to bank on the more well known of the two and use haskap as your innovative spin and differentiation on all the other blueberry RTDs on the market. Win win.
That said, it’s a bit like fresh blueberry juice with the more mineral and grassy notes of the mate coming through in the finish and aftertaste. As always, I like the Mateina doesn’t completely mask their yerba mate base with other flavours but instead finds ways to let it shine while still making sure their flavours are impactful and punchy. Plus, it’s not sweet at all which is a refreshing change of pace from your normal RTD!!
