Dare has introduced a “bold new evolution” for its “iconic” mocha with the launch of Dare Iced Coffee Protein Mocha.

According to the iced coffee brand, it has taken its number‑one flavour and given it a “serious upgrade”, adding “real functional muscle without touching the Dare taste Australians know and love”.

Available in 500ml and 750ml bottles, Dare Protein Mocha delivers 30g and 45g of protein per bottle respectively, with no added sugar and the signature mocha flavour.

“Protein is driving huge growth in the functional beverage space, so we asked the question: What happens when you take Australia’s favourite Dare flavour and make it the strongest version of itself?” says Patrick Davis, Marketing Manager – Iced Coffee at Bega Group.

“Mocha has always been a fan favourite. Giving it a high protein lift lets it shine in a new way. With big flavour, no added sugar and a serious protein boost, Protein Mocha proves you don’t need to order a double espresso to make a strong choice.”

Dare Iced Coffee Protein Mocha 500ml is now available in Coles and select retailers – and will expand with its 750ml format from May. Alongside this launch, Dare is “bulking up” its protein range with new 2lt Protein Double Espresso and 2lt Low Fat bottles now available in Coles.
