Dual-Source Carbohydrates

Each serving delivers approximately 27 g of carbohydrates from glucose and fructose — a dual-source blend that supports absorption at the higher hourly carbohydrate rates used in marathon training, cycling sportives, and long endurance sessions.

Many athletes combine this Carbohydrate Drink Mix for Endurance Performance with Energy Pastilles for Running and Cycling to reach their hourly fuelling targets.

Electrolytes

Endurance exercise causes fluid and electrolyte loss through sweat. Each serving provides:

• Sodium (~300 mg)
• Potassium (~85 mg)
• Calcium (~30 mg)
• Magnesium (~11 mg)

How Much Caffeine Is In It

Each 30g serving contains 50 mg of caffeine — less than half a mug of filter coffee, which is around 140 mg.

Mixed as directed in 500–750 ml of water, that works out at 67–100 mg per litre. Food labelling rules require a drink to be declared high in caffeine above 150 mg per litre, so Core sits below that threshold. It is not an energy drink and is not built like one.

Prefer none at all? Power Fluids Tart Cherry is caffeine-free with the same 27g of carbohydrate per serving, and all our Energy Pastilles are caffeine-free.

Not recommended for children or pregnant women.
