Inspire Africa Iced Coffee cold brew event stall — Malt-Flavoured Cold Brew from Uganda

Coffee Energy Drinks.
The lift without the crash.

Cold-brewed coffee fruit meets light natural sweetness. 80 mg of natural caffeine per can — about one shot of espresso. No taurine. No synthetic stimulants. Just the part of the coffee cherry the world usually throws away, given a second life in a chilled 330 ml can.

The cherry's other gift.

When a coffee cherry is picked, the outer skin — the cascara, or coffee fruit — is typically discarded during wet-milling as a pulp byproduct. It has always been a waste problem. In Yemen and Ethiopia, where the tradition of drinking cascara as a tea called qishr has existed for centuries, it was never considered waste at all.

Cascara is naturally sweet, fruity, and caffeinated. It tastes like a cross between hibiscus tea, dried cherry, and a hint of tamarind — nothing like the bean at all, but sharing its caffeine payload. We cold-brew our cascara for 18 hours, blend it with a small amount of cold-brewed coffee, and lightly sweeten with natural fruit sugars. The result is a drink that delivers real energy without the synthetic stimulant stack of conventional energy drinks.

At 80 mg of natural caffeine per 330 ml can, it delivers the same energy as a shot of espresso, but over a longer, gentler curve. No crash. No jitters. Just a clean, pleasant lift that suits a long meeting, a pre-workout, or an afternoon slump.

Natural, by design.

Chilled. Always.

  1. Serve at 2–5°C. The flavour is best cold. Refrigerate for at least two hours before drinking. If you are opening a warm can in the field, pour over ice in a cup for a faster chill.
  2. Pre-workout. Drink 20–30 minutes before exercise. The natural caffeine curve is gradual — expect a clean 90-minute energy window without a sharp crash.
  3. Post-lunch slump. The ideal moment. Natural caffeine + light sweetness is enough to clear the post-lunch fog without disrupting evening sleep if consumed before 3 pm.
  4. Coffee cocktail base. The Malt Cold Brew variant is an outstanding base for an espresso martini riff or a simple whisky-and-coffee highball. Replace the espresso shot with a full can, reduce the sweetener, shake over ice.
