Music icon Bob Marley has extended his legacy and family name with a range of drinks designed to reduce stress and relieve tension, while calming the soul and easing the mind.
The Marley Beverage Company launched Marley’s Mellow Mood, a line of 100% natural relaxation beverages created in partnership with the family of Bob Marley. This year marks the 30th anniversary of his death.
With its soothing style, natural ingredients and great taste, Marley's Mellow Mood has become one of the beverage industry's breakout hits, now available throughout the UK and growing worldwide. The beverages originally launched in the USA, have proven an instant hit with over 1 million cases sold in its first year of release.
The product range featuring Marley’s image on the label is available in four varieties: lightly carbonated ‘Berry’ and ‘Citrus’ flavours in 355ml aluminium cans (rrp £1.59), and ready-to-drink ‘Herbal Honey and Peach’ as well as ‘Raspberry and Passion Fruit’ flavours in 473ml glass bottles (rrp £1.79).
The citrus-flavoured carbonated drink is especially refreshing when served chilled and can be enjoyed pure or blended with a tipple of your choice. With it’s slightly tangy taste that’s not too sour it makes for the perfect summer drink!
In contrast, the ‘Rasperry and Passion Fruit’ flavoured black tea comes decaffeinated and has a much more subtle taste, it can probably be consumed slightly heated on a cold day, too. I can’t comment on the ‘Herbal Honey and Peach’ flavour but I’m sure it tastes equally delicious. Rasta girl vibration: positive!
Marley's Mellow Mood has been meticulously formulated with a carefully selected blend of all natural botanical ingredients sourced from around the world, including Chamomile, Hops, Passionflower, Rose Hips and Lemon Balm. But no, it does NOT have the one natural ingredient that folks might associate with Bob Marley…
The range is stocked in shops and newsagents across the UK.
