Hi Everyone! Today, I am sharing with you one of my favorite beverages, Bai. It’s been a lifesaver for me to get some natural caffeine when I am trying to avoid coffee, energy drinks, and soda. I found this healthier alternative from my mom. They are about 10 calories and have only 1-2 grams of sugar per bottle. Which clearly wins when it comes to the sugary alternatives I mentioned above.

So what is in Bai? 

They use the coffeefruit (the outside of a coffeebean) as their main ingredient. This used to be discarded by coffee bean farmers and would pollute the environment. The coffeefruit is actually loaded with antioxidants that can benefit us significantly, so it is the backbone of each Bai. Not only does this decrease waste, but it is actually benefiting coffeefruit communities as well. “Bai’s purchasing and use of the coffeefruit supports long-term economic opportunities for coffee producers in remote, relatively poor regions.”

Here is a video about coffeefruit by Bai.

They taste so good and they do not use harmful artificial sweeteners. “The answer lies in the combination of “smart sweeteners” — erythritol and stevia leaf extract— used in each flavor of Bai.” This keeps each Bai tasting sweet but not unhealthy. “There is one gram of sugar in each 8 oz. serving of Bai. Many sodas, juices and iced teas on the market today are loaded with sugar, with between 23 grams to 31 grams of processed sugar per serving.” I really love sweet drinks so being able to get that without all the sugar is a win win for me. 

“Bai is also non-GMO, gluten free, soy free, BPA free, vegan, low glycemic and free of artificial preservatives.” They work very hard to keep their products as natural as possible. 

“White tea is added to Bai for flavor, as a source of added antioxidants and for a gentle lift of nature’s caffeine to give Bai consumers a little extra energy as a healthier alternative to the many over-caffeinated, over-sugared drinks on the market.” I love being able to get in some healthy caffeine when I need it. Some days, I just need that extra energy to get through the day or through a long drive for work. 

If you haven’t tried Bai before and you are drinking an unhealthy alternative regularly, I challenge you to give Bai a shot. These are some of my favorite go to drinks now. My favorite flavors are: Brasilia Blueberry, Costa Rica Clementine, Ipanema Pomegranate, Kula Watermelon, Panama Peach, Zambia Bing Cherry, Burundi Blueberry Lemonade, Lanai Blackberry Lemonade, São Paulo Strawberry Lemonade, Nariño Peach Tea, Rio Raspberry Tea, and Tanzania Lemonade Tea.

My absolute favorites are the lemonades!
