When choosing a zero sugar energy drink, caffeine source is often overlooked.
But it matters.
Caffeine in energy drinks typically comes from one of two sources:
- Synthetic caffeine (caffeine anhydrous)
- Plant-derived caffeine (such as green tea extract)
Understanding the difference helps consumers make more informed decisions.
What Is Synthetic Caffeine?
Synthetic caffeine, often labeled as caffeine anhydrous, is chemically produced and added as a purified stimulant.
It is commonly used in:
- Traditional energy drinks
- Pre-workout powders
- High-stimulant beverages
It is effective, inexpensive, and widely used.
What Is Plant-Based Caffeine?
Plant-based caffeine comes from natural sources such as:
- Green tea extract
- Coffee extract
- Yerba mate
Green tea–derived caffeine is frequently used in beverages positioned around plant-based or botanical sourcing.
