about this product.

Drink Mix 320 Caf 100 is a carbohydrate-based sports drink mix from Maurten, formulated with caffeine. Maurten's drink mixes are built around a hydrogel technology that encapsulates carbohydrates in a gel-like matrix within the gut, which is studied for its role in reducing gastrointestinal discomfort at the high carbohydrate intakes that endurance athletes require. The "320" in the name refers to the carbohydrate content per serving, making this a high-density fuel source designed for sustained, demanding output. The "Caf 100" indicates 100mg of caffeine per serving — a dose in line with what sports science commonly associates with improved focus, reduced perceived effort, and maintained performance in the later stages of a race or long training session.

This mix suits endurance athletes — runners, cyclists, triathletes — who need reliable, gut-friendly fuel alongside a caffeine boost timed to performance. It works particularly well in longer efforts where both energy availability and mental sharpness become limiting factors. The product is designed to be mixed with water and consumed during exercise rather than as an everyday drink.

Maurten has built a strong reputation among elite endurance athletes and their coaches precisely because the formulation prioritises gut tolerability at high carbohydrate loads — a practical concern that many standard sports drinks overlook. If your training or racing runs long, that distinction matters.

how to take it

i.

Mix one serving with water as directed on the packaging and consume during exercise. It is designed for use mid-effort — not before or after — and is best suited to sessions or races lasting long enough to require mid-exercise fuelling. Follow the preparation instructions on the pack for the correct water volume.

frequently asked.

When should I take this during exercise?

Drink Mix 320 Caf 100 is designed for consumption during exercise, not before or after. For longer sessions or races, start fuelling early and sip consistently rather than waiting until you feel depleted. Check the packaging for specific preparation guidance.

What is the hydrogel technology and why does it matter?

Maurten's hydrogel approach encapsulates carbohydrates in a gel-like matrix that forms in the gut. This is studied for its potential to improve tolerance of high carbohydrate intake during exercise — a common limiting factor for endurance athletes who experience stomach discomfort with standard sports drinks.

Is 100mg of caffeine a suitable amount for me?

100mg is a moderate caffeine dose — roughly equivalent to a strong cup of coffee. It falls within the range commonly studied for performance benefits. If you are sensitive to caffeine, unused to it in training, or are taking this late in the day, that is worth weighing up before use.

Can I use this for shorter workouts?

This product is formulated as a high-carbohydrate fuel source, which makes it most relevant for longer, higher-intensity efforts where carbohydrate availability and focus genuinely become limiting factors. For shorter sessions, the carbohydrate and caffeine load may be more than you need.

Does the caffeine content mean I should avoid it close to bedtime?

Yes. As with any caffeinated food or drink, consuming this product close to sleep is likely to interfere with sleep quality. Time its use to your training schedule and avoid late-evening sessions where sleep may be compromised.

The first adrenal support that made a quick difference.

4 days ago

Gentle on a sensitive stomach, and I feel like myself again. I had tried two other glandulars before this and neither sat right.

MRVerified Buyer

Steadier mornings within a fortnight.

I was sceptical about glandulars, but my mid-afternoon crash has genuinely eased. One capsule with breakfast and I forget about it.

ALVerified Buyer

Subtle, but real.

2 weeks ago

Not a stimulant, which is exactly what I wanted. It took about ten days, then I realised I wasn’t dreading the afternoon any more.

SKVerified Buyer

My clinician recommended it.

3 weeks ago

Bought after a blood panel flagged a flat cortisol curve. Easy to take, no jitters, and the sourcing is refreshingly transparent.

TPVerified Buyer

Recovery feels faster.

1 month ago

Training hard through a stressful stretch and this has helped me bounce back between sessions. Already on my second bottle.

DVVerified Buyer

Does what it says.

1 month ago

No frills, one ingredient, a sensible dose. I appreciate that it is designed to be used for a season rather than forever.
