Laird Hamilton is known worldwide for his big wave surfing talent and his commitment to health and fitness. From the latter Laird Superfood was born and has grown into a business with an impressive lineup of products from coffee creamers to cookie mix. A recent acquisition of one of our favorite energy bar companies, Picky Bars, means we can get all of our favorite on-the-go fuel from one place. Active Junky testers couldn’t wait to get their hands on some of the Laird Superfood products to see what all the hype was about. From the everyday morning coffee routine to a quick warm/pick me up during a big backcountry outing Laird’s products kept us fueled and energized all day.
There are 3 options in the Instafuel department, Original (coffee), Matcha, and Chai. Although all of the flavors are delicious, we found the Original flavor to be our favorite. So good in fact that despite the Insta Fuel being intended for an on-the-go fix testers found themselves drinking the Original Instafuel every day. Despite the stigma that instant coffee can carry this stuff really tastes amazing. With the distinct taste of coconut and a slightly but not overly sweet flavor profile, you’ll be craving a cup of this every time you need a pick-me-up. Although we’ve been raving about the Original Instafuel, the Matcha and Chai teas are just as delicious. The non-coffee drinkers in our testing crew loved that they had the option to have a different drink with the same ease as the Original Instafuel.
Love coconut water but hate shelling out a couple of bucks per carton? Check out Laird’s take on a refreshing coconut that goes for $.84 a serving. After a long day skiing or out on the trails mix up a cup of this coconut water and replenish lost fluids from an active day. We’ve been keeping a bag of this Hydrate in the office to have a nice healthy alternative to drinking regular tap water.
Laird Superfood Creamer Original
If you are a coffee connoisseur that likes the ritual of your pour-over or french press in the morning then this is the creamer for you. This product is the origin of Laird Superfood hence it is one of their most popular products. And for good reason, the all-natural creamer is made using whole-food ingredients tastes excellent, and doesn’t have all the artificial sweeteners and ingredients you find in most creamers. We are big fans of the original flavor with its not too sweet with a hint of coconut and a smooth texture has us craving our morning coffee even more than before. Be sure to check out the other flavors like Cacao, Vanilla, Pumpkin Spice, and more!
