Three flavors pair the existing formula with 40 mg of natural caffeine per mint
NEW YORK, United States – 14th September 2026 – Neuro has launched Energy & Focus Sour Mints, a permanent extension of the company’s functional mint range that combines its existing Energy & Focus formula with Sour Apple, Sour Citrus and Sour Berry flavors.

The launch brings a sour taste profile to Neuro’s portable mint format for adults. Each mint delivers an immediate sour flavor while providing the same ingredient combination used across the company’s established Energy & Focus line. The format is designed for use during work, commuting, travel and other daily activities without requiring a beverage, mixing equipment or preparation.
Each Energy & Focus Sour Mint contains 40 mg of natural caffeine, 60 mg of L-theanine and vitamins B6 and B12. The mints are vegan, gluten-free, zero sugar and aspartame-free. They also freshen breath while providing measured ingredients in an individually portioned format.
“Energy & Focus Sour Mints retain the existing formula while adding three sour flavors in a portable mint format for adult consumers,” said Kent Yoshimura, co-founder and CEO of Neuro.
Sour Apple offers a tart fruit profile, while Sour Citrus provides a citrus-based variation and Sour Berry adds a berry flavor to the range. The three options give the permanent line a distinct sensory profile while maintaining consistent ingredient quantities across each mint.
The sour extension reflects growing consumer interest in stronger flavor profiles within everyday snack and wellness formats. Neuro developed the line to combine the immediate sensory character of sour flavor with a familiar mint form. The result expands the company’s flavor selection without changing the established Energy & Focus formulation.
Energy & Focus Sour Mints are offered in 90-count bulk bags through the company’s online distribution channel. Twelve-count tins have also begun rolling out at select retail locations in the United States. The phased distribution approach adds the products to Neuro’s existing retail and direct-to-consumer operations while accounting for differences in inventory timing by location.
The dedicated product record for the sour extension is https://neurogum.com/products/sours-energy-focus-mints. It identifies the three flavors and the 90-count format included in the initial online release. Retail distribution uses the smaller 12-count tin format for portable storage and individual purchases.
The launch adds a permanent sour option to a product portfolio centered on functional gum and mints. Neuro has developed these formats to provide portioned ingredients in products that can be carried and used during routine daily activities. Energy & Focus Sour Mints continue that approach through a flavor-focused extension rather than a change to the underlying formula.
Neuro was founded in 2015 after more than two years of product development and reformulation. The company has continued revising its products through nearly 30 formula iterations and has sold more than half a billion pieces across its gum and mint portfolio.
