Every batch is third-party tested, and every milligram is on the can.
Built for the Long Afternoon
Organic guarana for steady energy, lion's mane and L-theanine for focus. Every milligram printed on the can.
464mg
Organic Guarana
Steady, natural energy*
A rainforest seed whose caffeine is naturally bound to tannins, so it releases gradually instead of hitting all at once.
Why this dose
Standardized to 22%, our guarana delivers about 102mg of naturally occurring caffeine. Enough to feel, without the spike-and-crash of synthetic caffeine.
51mg
Green Tea Extract
The other half of your caffeine*
Standardized green tea extract. Together with guarana it makes up the full caffeine content of every can.
Why this dose
Standardized to 98%, delivering about 50mg of caffeine. Added to guarana’s 102mg, that is the 152mg printed on the can.
155mg
L-Theanine
Calm, clear focus*
An amino acid found in tea leaves. Paired with caffeine, it supports alert, focused energy without the jitters.
Why this dose
Matched roughly 1:1 with the 152mg of caffeine in every can. That ratio is the one most studied for focus and attention.
1,000mg
Lion’s Mane
Sharper thinking*
A functional mushroom traditionally used to support memory, clarity and mental performance.
Why this dose
A full 1,000mg, disclosed on the can. Most drinks hide lion’s mane inside a blend so you cannot tell how much you are getting.
1,000mg
Cordyceps
Stamina and endurance*
A functional mushroom traditionally used to support physical endurance and oxygen efficiency.
Why this dose
A full 1,000mg, the same as our lion’s mane. Dosed to be felt, not to look good on an ingredient list.
200mg
Panax Ginseng
Physical and mental stamina*
An adaptogenic root used for centuries to support stamina and help the body handle stress.
Why this dose
200mg brings ginseng’s stamina support into every can, so your energy carries from the gym to the desk.
80mg
Himalayan Pink Salt
Hydration support*
Unrefined mineral salt carrying trace electrolytes, including sodium, potassium and magnesium. Caffeine is mildly diuretic, so most energy drinks leave hydration to you. We put it in the can.
Why this dose
80mg of pink salt, plus 180mg of sodium per can, to support hydration alongside the caffeine rather than working against it.
Also inside: Ginger extract, real hibiscus, and vitamins B6 and B12.
How a Can of Herbal Fuel Works
Guarana's caffeine is bound to tannins, so it releases gradually instead of all at once. Here is how that plays out.
First 15 Minutes
Absorption Begins
- Caffeine from guarana starts entering the bloodstream*
- L-theanine is absorbed alongside it*
- No sugar spike to ride, just 1g per can
30-60 Minutes
The Window Opens
- Caffeine levels approach their peak*
- 155mg of L-theanine is working alongside 152mg of caffeine*
- The pairing most studied for alert, steady focus*
1-3 Hours
Steady, Not Spiky
- Tannin-bound caffeine releases more gradually than caffeine anhydrous*
- 200mg of Panax ginseng supports stamina across the whole window*
- No 54g of sugar to crash from
4-6 Hours
The Taper
- Caffeine clears gradually; half-life runs roughly five hours in most adults*
- Which is why we say no more than 2 cans a day
- And not within 6 hours of bed if caffeine affects your sleep
With Daily Use
The Part That Builds
- 1,000mg of lion's mane, every can, every day*
- 200mg of Panax ginseng, traditionally used as an adaptogen over regular use*
- The reason Founders tend to start with the 24-pack
KeanuFounder, Herbal Fuel
The Origin Story
He built it at 21. Then he tore it down.
Keanu grew up inside the herbal beverage business. For five years he helped his dad turn a family recipe brand into a company serving thousands of customers.
At 21, he launched the first Herbal Fuel in glass bottles. It made it onto store shelves. People loved it. But he knew it could be better: cleaner, lighter, and built for how people actually live now.
So instead of scaling the old version, he started over.
“I didn't want to sell another can full of sweeteners and promises. I wanted the energy drink I'd actually hand to my own family.”
— Keanu, Founder of Herbal Fuel
6 months and 16 formula rounds later, Herbal Fuel was rebuilt from scratch. Guarana. Lion's mane. Zero sucralose. Zero shortcuts.

How does the Founder pre-order work?
You pay today: $59 for a 12-pack or $109 for a 24-pack, with free shipping. That locks one of only 200 Founder spots in Batch 001. Founder orders are the first to ship.
When will my order ship?
By January 31, 2027. You get a confirmation email right away, production updates along the way, and tracking the moment your order leaves.
What if you miss January 31?
You get a full refund. That is our Pre-Order Protection. If anything changes, you will hear it from us first, by email.
Can I cancel my pre-order?
Yes. Cancel anytime before your order ships for a full refund. Reply to your confirmation email or write support@drinkherbalfuel.com.
What is Batch 001?
Batch 001 is our founding production run, capped at 200 Founder spots. When the spots are gone, Founder pricing is gone. The next batch opens later at full price.
How much caffeine is in a can?
152 mg of naturally occurring caffeine from organic guarana. Because guarana's caffeine is bound to tannins, it releases more gradually than the synthetic caffeine in most energy drinks.
What does Hibiscus Punch taste like?
Bright, floral hibiscus with a citrus finish. Lightly sparkling, crisp, and not syrupy.
How is it sweetened?
With a monk fruit and stevia blend. Zero sucralose, zero aspartame, and just 1g of sugar per can.
What makes it different from other energy drinks?
Every active ingredient is fully dosed and printed on the can: no proprietary blends. You get organic guarana, L-theanine, 1,000mg of lion's mane, and Panax ginseng, with a third-party Certificate of Analysis for every batch.
When should I drink it?
Whenever you need to lock in: before a workout, a long work block, or an afternoon that needs a second wind. Each can has about 150mg of caffeine, so we recommend no more than 2 cans per day, and not within 6 hours of bedtime if caffeine affects your sleep.
Is it safe for everyone?
Herbal Fuel contains caffeine and isn't recommended for children, people who are pregnant or nursing, or anyone sensitive to caffeine. If you have a medical condition or take medication, check with your doctor first.
Is it third-party tested?
Yes. Every batch is tested by an independent lab, and the Certificate of Analysis is available on request at support@drinkherbalfuel.com.
Is it vegan?
Yes. Herbal Fuel is vegan and has 15 calories per can.
Where do you ship?
We currently ship to all addresses in the contiguous United States.
