This latest flavor provides athletes with an Energy Gel that delivers perfectly harmonized Chai flavors of warm ginger, sweet cinnamon and aromatic cloves and cardamom required a deep understanding of its flavor profile. 
“Perfecting the CHAi LATTe flavor was part art and part science,” said Magda Boulet, VP of Research, Innovation & Development at GU Energy Labs. “Through taste-testing, in-depth research on Chai flavor history and plenty of trial and error, we’re excited to deliver this warm and spicy addition to our line of ROCTANE Energy Gels.”
