A hot drink without caffeine or cocoa
Between coffee, tea and drinking chocolate the shelf lacks a creamy alternative without caffeine. The pine nut drink fills exactly that gap: for the afternoon, the evening and for guests who do not drink coffee.

Why list it now
The next nut in the cup.
Pistachio and macadamia have shown how quickly a premium nut moves from niche to menu standard. Pine nuts bring the same creaminess, a distinctive resinous aroma and a story that tells itself on the shelf.
51% pine nuts, four ingredients
The Plain variety consists of ground pine nuts, starch syrup, coconut oil and milk protein. No flavourings, no colourings, no added crystal sugar: 6 g of sugar per 100 g of powder, about 1.5 g per cup.
Water or milk, no machine
Stirred in the cup, in a thermos flask or in a French press. No portafilter, no frother required. One pouch makes about ten cups and reseals with a zipper.
Two varieties
Plain all year round, Spiced for the cold season.
Both varieties share the base of 51% pine nuts. The Spiced variety adds cinnamon, ginger, cardamom, cloves and turmeric and positions itself alongside chai and winter drinks. Switch between front and back of pack.

Preparation
Four steps, two minutes of work.
The preparation as printed on the label, the way staff in food service and customers at home follow it. Only the temperature matters: hot, but not boiling.
3–5 tsp
Measure the powder
About 22 to 25 g per cup into the cup, flask or French press.
200 ml
Water or milk
Hot, 80 to 90 °C, not boiling. Milk makes the drink fuller, water lighter.
Stir
Stir well
Until the powder is evenly creamy. For foam, use a milk frother briefly.
3–5 min
Let it steep
The aroma develops in the first minutes. Use a thermos flask for maximum intensity.
Serving suggestions for HoReCa
Three menu positions from one pouch.
One powder, one step, three drinks with a premium price point. None need an espresso machine, all are caffeine-free and sell until closing time. To avoid residue, prepare the base in a French press.
