All you have to do is go around the corner to your nearest Starbucks and see the crowds it draws; the fact that there may be another franchise on the next city block (which may be a little excessive, but who am I to judge?) also speaks to the demand. It's disheartening to know that everyone's favorite drink just isn't doing us any favors. Research shows that it has been linked to high blood pressure, anxiety; not to mention the artery clogging amounts of cream many of us load in it, and the sugar which is probably enough to draw in an entire colony of ants.
So what if I told you that there's a new competitor on the market; coffee with a healthy twist? I'm not just pulling your leg; it's not too good to be true. There are a couple of options available, like Gano Healthy Coffee, but there's only one that hopes to extend itself beyond cyberspace. Healthy Coffee, which has a less than creative, but effectively defining tagline, "World's Healthy Coffee Company" really wants to give the large conglomerates a run for their money by opening franchises nationwide (or at least getting their product onto the shelves of the money makers).
However, at this point, their plan seems to be starting off by competing with Gano, using an Internet distribution model. With no distributor/franchisee success stories, or recognitions listed under those sections of their website, it looks like business might just be warming up. If you're interested in attempting to cash in on a potentially profitable, progressive new business idea; visit their website and sign up here.
I was intrigued to learn what can possibly make coffee healthy. They have six different varieties of "EnerGi Healthy Coffee" (Black, Chai milk tea, Blend, Blast, Chocolate, and Mocha) which are, as the name says, supposed to give you energy through natural sources like ginseng and reishi and are sweetened with natural sugar cane.
While admittedly the packaging worries me a little; 20 sticks of the stuff come in each packet, which already have a non-dairy creamer built in (it's an instant, just add water situation); as well as the fact that I would be ingesting a fungus with my morning pick me up (reishi is a mushroom used in Chinese medicine), I think it's a product worth tasting. I can rise above the fact that they manufacture in Malaysia, and that a company with a slogan stating they have the healthiest coffee, has made one of their major products a chai TEA (they might want to reconsider their marketing approach on this one). Though I'll reserve judgment on the distribution potential until I know it's been well received by the public.
Feeling adventurous? Get your own by emailing info@healthycoffee.com and let me know what you think! Could this replace your favorite cup of fresh brew, or does it fall flat?
