The black and blue appearance of Mati Tropical Pineapple is not too shabby; it is almost svelte looking, the azure coloring popping right off the dark depths of the background. I also like the bright yellow text, a fine way to have the brand name distinct from everything else.
The flavor is the antidote to a drink like AMP Tropical Burst, which was excessively saccharine and one-dimensional. Mati on the other hand, is a brisk, almost under-sweetened experience in fruit exploitation. Its effervescence is harsh, coarse bubbles surround your palate with every imbibe, an inventive way to introduce your usual "tropical" fruit suspects to the party, namely passionfruit, apple, lime and pineapple, in no particular order. They taste as one and not four different juices, despite being 66% fruit nectar, a well-balanced cocktail of tastes often tasted together. Additionally they share the same acidity, a tartness almost strong enough to make your lips pucker like a child's eating a sour candy. It should also be mentioned the brewed guayusa leaves (just think of them as "tea"), which provide a wonderful bitterness, and help keep the otherwise sugary escapade grounded more in nature than in a candy store.
There is vitamin C, potassium and caffeine (115 milligrams) per can, which is not exactly much of a kick. It clocks in at about an hour and half long, a post-drink feeling more akin to a glass of OJ followed by a cup of coffee than your usual energy drink.
