Flavors of the Future
Rising stars of flavors for sports nutrition influenced by North America
A journey of discovery
So, what's next?
Which trends are set to shape the winning flavors of tomorrow? How do we separate the fleeting from the enduring? What will make my products stand out? These are among our favorite conversations.
So, we set out to devise our hot list of the rising stars of flavors for sports nutrition. Our journey of discovery begins with the flavor zeitgeist, harvesting ideas and inspiration from influential bloggers, food writers and futurologists. Then we benchmarked with real data such as product launches and global search trends.
Finally, our experts in flavor and sports nutrition assessed and refined to create our hot list; only those that they felt had true potential in the market making the final cut.

Yuzu
Yuzu is a citrus fruit similar to a small, irregular grapefruit with pitted skin. It can be yellow or green depending on the degree of ripeness. Yuzu originated from and grows wild in central China and Tibet. It was introduced to Japan and Korea during the Tang Dynasty and it remains widely cultivated there. The yuzu's flavor is tart, closely resembling that of a grapefruit, with overtones of mandarin orange. It is rarely eaten as a fruit, though in the Japanese cuisine its aromatic zest (outer rind) is used to garnish some dishes, and its juice is commonly used as a seasoning, similar to lemon in other cuisines.

Yuzu Is the Asian "Superfruit" Seattle Bartenders Are Currently in Love With
Yuzu Is Embraced as a Mainstay Ingredient
Favored for its subtle citrus flavor that is less tart than its counterparts, yuzu has made its way onto menus across the world and has been incorporated into products ranging from alcoholic beverages to artisan desserts. The newfound popularity of the flavor highlights the progression of interest in Japanese cuisine beyond sushi and other mainstays.
Mochi
Mochi, a simple pounded rice cake, has begun its journey to become the fusion dessert we've all come to know and love. A traditional Japanese food, it is typically sold and eaten during the Japanese New Year. Nowadays, people refer to mochi ice cream as simply mochi. However, using the shorthand you are referring exclusively to the dough surrounding center.
It's perfectly soft and squishy on the outside, but refreshingly cold and creamy on the inside. The textures of the mochi and the ice cream work perfectly together, and every variety we tried was saturated with flavor
If you haven't bitten into a squishy, sweet, cold mochi, you're seriously missing out
EPIC!

Tart Cherry
Tart cherries, also known as sour cherries, are bright red when harvested and retain their vibrant color when juiced, frozen or baked. There are several varieties of the tart or sour cherry: the dark-red Morello cherry and the lighter-red varieties including the Amarelle cherry and the popular Montmorency cherry. The Montmorency cherry is the most popular and owes its status to its use in baking and other recipes.
