Storage

Shelf life 18 months unopened. Store in a cool, dry place away from sunlight. Refrigerate after opening and drink promptly. Best served chilled.

How to drink

Shake well. The fiber settles at the bottom, and that's the proof there's fruit in here. Open, drink, done. Morning with breakfast, or whenever you'd reach for a shot.

Where is it made?

The pulp is wild-harvested in Africa. The Shot is pasteurized and bottled in glass in Vietnam, at a facility holding BRCGS Grade A+ and FSSC 22000 certification and registered with the FDA.

Tasting note

Fair warning: it's tart.

pH about 3, close to lemon juice. Second sip is a little dry. Sediment at the bottom is fiber; shake before opening.

Questions
Why is it so sour? Has it gone bad?

No. Baobab is naturally acidic and we don't add sugar to hide it. If it ever tastes fizzy or smells off, that's a different story; contact us with the lot number on the neck.

What's the stuff at the bottom?

Fruit pulp: fiber holding water. We keep it in on purpose. Shake before opening.

Can I mix it with water?

Yes. Some people prefer it in a glass of cold water; it turns into a light, cloudy, tart drink. Straight from the bottle is faster.

Is it a supplement?

No. It's a food, not a dietary supplement: water and baobab fruit pulp. It isn't intended to treat or prevent any condition. If you have a health condition or follow a diet your doctor has set, please check with them first, as you would with any new food.
