Sea Otter Classic Find: Untapped Adds Maple-Fueled Recovery Drink Mixes

Untapped, a Vermont-based nutrition brand known for its maple-centric products, has expanded its range with a new line of recovery drink mixes unveiled at the Sea Otter Classic. These mixes are designed to support post-ride recovery by combining real-food ingredients with the brand’s signature maple sugar base. The launch includes two variants: a standard Recovery Drink Mix and a Vegan Recovery Drink Mix, both priced at £39.95 for an eight-serving container. The standard Recovery Drink Mix features a blend of maple sugar, nonfat and whole milk powders, dried egg whites, and sea salt, aiming to provide a balance of carbohydrates and protein to aid muscle repair and refuelling. It is available in three flavours: Maple, Cocoa, and Strawberry. The vegan alternative replaces dairy and egg components with oat milk powder and hemp heart protein, maintaining the same flavour options while catering to plant-based diets. Nutritional information reveals that each 50-gram serving of the standard mix offers 200 calories, 34 grams of carbohydrates, 11 grams of protein, and a moderate amount of sodium and potassium. The vegan mix provides a similar calorie count with slightly higher carbohydrates and marginally lower protein content. Both products avoid artificial additives and ultra-processed ingredients, emphasising clean, real-food nutrition. Taste tests of the vegan flavours have been well received, with a subtle maple hint and a pleasant overall flavour profile noted. This development marks a thoughtful extension of Untapped’s product line, aligning with the growing demand for natural and plant-based recovery options in the cycling and endurance sports community. The mixes are now available for purchase through Untapped’s website.
