Read MoreHide Full Article
Key Takeaways
Beyond Meat introduced Beyond Immerse, a functional protein drink aimed at hydration and clean-label appeal.
Beyond Immerse offers 10g or 20g of protein, plus fiber and electrolytes, with low calories.
BYND will sell Beyond Immerse exclusively via its Test Kitchen to diversify revenues and test innovations.
Beyond Meat, Inc. (BYND - Free Report) is sharpening its focus on cleaner ingredients and nutrition-led innovation, supported by platforms such as Beyond Steak and Beyond Ground, which aim to deliver improved taste, texture and nutritional profiles while addressing evolving consumer preferences for simpler, more transparent formulations.
In its latest launch, the company has introduced Beyond Immerse, an innovative blend of plant-based protein, fiber, antioxidants and electrolytes created to replenish the body with every refreshing sip. The range will come in three bright, refreshing flavors, Peach Mango, Lemon Lime and Orange Tangerine, and will be available for a limited time exclusively through the Beyond Test Kitchen.
Beyond Immerse is available in two formulations, offering 10 grams of protein with about 60 calories or 20 grams of protein with about 100 calories. Both variants are made with pea protein and contain seven grams of fiber, along with vitamin C, antioxidants and electrolytes, supporting muscle, gut and immune health.
The beverage is free from GMOs and sugar alcohols, aligning with clean-label trends and health-conscious consumer preferences. The move reflects Beyond Meat’s broader ambition to position itself as a diversified, protein-focused nutrition company rather than solely a meat-alternative brand.
Beyond Immerse will be offered exclusively for a limited time on Beyond Test Kitchen, BYND’s direct-to-consumer platform and hub for early access to new product innovations and limited-edition releases. By tapping into the rapidly expanding functional protein drink market, Beyond Meat aims to leverage its brand equity and protein expertise while diversifying revenue streams and adapting to evolving consumer habits.
