WHAT’S IN IT FOR YOU
100% PLANT ENERGY, NO ADDITIVES
Nightwatch is prepared with water, herbs, fruits, flowers and nothing else
Even though using chemicals in beverage production to control factors like flavour or acidity and the addition of preservatives and antifoaming agents are allowed, the long-term effects many of these substances may have on your well-being are not well researched.
GUANIDINE
While preventing blood sugar levels from rising, it makes sure no crash in energy comes after the kick. Combined with the unique blend of Xanthines (caffeine-like compounds) found only in Guayusa, Nightwatch gives you long-lasting energy without the jitters. Another beneficial effect of keeping blood sugar levels low is the prevention of weight gain.
VERY HIGH ORAC VALUE
Meaning it has a lot of antioxidants. Guayusa is one of the richest sources of antioxidants. Antioxidants fight free radicals that would otherwise speed up cell degeneration. They help keep your skin healthy, support your immune system, prevent chronic disease, increase cardiovascular health, improve mood and boost memory.
XANTHINES
Researching the plant, we found it to contain high levels of xanthine alkaloids. This is the family of molecules to which caffeine (coffee, tea), theobromine (cacao, tea) and theophylline (cacao, tea) belong. The xanthines in guayusa are bound in a complex way releasing their energy very slowly over time. This natural blend of molecules prevents the quick “rush” accompanied by the “restlessness” and is followed by the “crash” often accredited to coffee and artificially caffeinated energy drinks. The natural xanthine blend in guayusa gives you focus & power throughout the day.
L-THEANINE
L-Theanine is proven to ease down excited nerves, it helps prevent stress, anxiety and the jitters some energy drinks might give you. Together with naturally occurring caffeine in Guayusa, it helps to improve concentration, increasing your focus on the job at hand.

Good taste
Nightwatch is an energy drink that actually tastes natural and healthy. We only sweeten it with fruit juices, there is no addition of artificial sugars. Let’s be honest, sugars found in fruits contain as many calories as refined sugar. However, fruit juices come with a whole bunch of constituents such as vitamins and minerals absent in refined sugar. We keep the level of calories in Nightwatch as low as possible.
Currently, the sugar level is at 4,2 grams per 100 ml. We recommend to not drink more than four bottles of Nightwatch per day. Nightwatch is flavoured with organic essential oils from flowers and these come from certified organic suppliers.
Nightwatch helps indigenous people to independently generate an income with the knowledge and customs of their own culture. In an effort to increase production, while simultaneously not increasing the environmental footprint, we cooperate with Dutch agricultural advisors to supply farmers with healthy young plants. Virus and pathogen-free plants grow more vigorous and produce more leaves. In a future project, we will use low-cost high-tech options to produce young plants on location leading to even more independence.
