Entourage Effects Sourced from Nature’s Functions

Entourage Effects Sourced from Nature’s Functions

Every sip of RIVR is a reflection of generations of ancestral wisdom. Each ingredient, from functional mushrooms to plants, adaptogens, and fruits, is carefully chosen to deliver a product that resonates with the natural world. It's not just about what these ingredients do on their own, but how they come together to create experiences that support your mind, body, and spirit.

We call these experiences the Entourage Effect—a synergy of the land's functional ingredients that are even more powerful when combined.

What are Entourage Effects?

The Entourage Effect is a term that originated in the cannabis industry and describes how different compounds—like cannabinoids and terpenes—work together to amplify each other's effects. But this concept goes beyond cannabis. It's really about synergy, how a collection of natural ingredients can enhance each other, creating an experience far greater than any single ingredient could offer on its own.

Think of it like a recipe. Sure, a spice like cinnamon is nice on its own, but when combined with complementary ingredients like ginger, nutmeg, and cloves, it transforms into something richer and more balanced. The same is true for RIVR's ingredients. Yerba mate, functional mushrooms, hemp-derived THC, herbs, adaptogens, and fruits—each brings its own unique benefits to the table, but it's their combination that makes RIVR so impactful.

In the world of plants, terpenes—the aromatic compounds found in many fruits, herbs, and flowers—play a crucial role in this synergy. Terpenes like linalool in lavender or myrcene in blackberries aren't just there for scent or flavor; they interact with other ingredients, working alongside functional mushrooms and adaptogens to deepen the overall effect. These natural compounds are part of the entourage, amplifying the calm of lavender or the focus from Lion's Mane.

RIVR's beverages are designed with this in mind. By blending ingredients with both functional and sensory benefits, we're creating more profound true-to-land experiences.

RIVR's Entourage Effects

RIVR consists of two types of beverages–Functional and THC Microdosed. Within these two categories, there is a product that delivers clarity and energy and another that delivers relaxation and balance.

Functional – Awaken

Type: Functional (THC free)

Taste:

  • Raspberry Hibiscus Yerba Mate
  • Mango Passionfruit Yerba Mate

Function:

  • Enhance your mood
  • Increase energy
  • Awaken the mind

Awaken's base is yerba mate, a plant that has been used for centuries to naturally increase energy levels and sharpen focus. It's paired with a balanced stack of Lion's Mane and Cordyceps, two antioxidant-rich functional mushrooms known for enhancing cognitive function and endurance.

Lion's Mane, known as "Mountain Priest" in Japan, has a rich history in traditional Chinese and Japanese medicine for its cognitive and neuroprotective benefits. Used by Buddhist monks to enhance concentration during meditation, this functional mushroom supports cognitive function and memory, promotes nerve growth, and acts as an anti-inflammatory.

Cordyceps, a revered fungus in traditional Chinese and Tibetan medicine dating back to 1,500 years before modern-day medicine, has been used for centuries to enhance energy, improve stamina, and support respiratory health.

The bright tartness and subtle sweetness of raspberry and hibiscus in one blend and the tropical bliss of mango and passionfruit in the other bring in their own natural benefits—filled with antioxidants, these fruits support both body and mind, infusing each sip with the vitality of the land.

THC Microdosed – Adventure

Type: THC Microdosed

Taste:

  • Raspberry Hibiscus Yerba Mate
  • Mango Passionfruit Yerba Mate

Function:

  • Uplift your mood
  • Increase energy
  • Invoke adventure

Adventure builds on Awaken's energizing formula of yerba mate, Lion's Mane mushrooms, and Cordyceps mushrooms with a microdose of 5mg of hemp-derived THC, delivering an amplified experience that invokes adventure in the mind and body. When pairing THC with functional mushrooms and yerba mate, you'll experience all the euphoria from THC with a stronger sense of alertness and smooth energy.

Functional – Peace

Type: Functional (THC free)

Taste: Blackberry Lavender Tea

Function:

  • Balance your mood
  • Relax
  • Find peace of mind

Peace's caffeine-free base consists of lavender and hibiscus teas, each with a long history of use in traditional practices. Lavender, cherished by certain Native American tribes, has been used in teas and infusions to soothe the mind and body. Hibiscus, revered in ancient Egyptian culture, is rich in antioxidants and known for supporting the heart, liver, digestion, and skin.

Reishi, a functional mushroom revered in Traditional Chinese Medicine for over 2,000 years, has been used to enhance the immune system, reduce stress, and promote longevity. Reishi embodies the ancient practice of using fungi for their powerful medicinal properties.

Ashwagandha, a cornerstone of Ayurvedic medicine, has been documented in use for over 3,000 years to relieve stress, increase energy levels, and improve concentration. Celebrated for its adaptogenic properties, ashwagandha helps the body resist various stressors, supporting physical and mental resilience.

The harmonious flavors of blackberry, lavender, prickly pear, and lemon create a calming experience, deeply rooted in centuries of healing traditions.

THC Microdosed – Serene

Type: THC Microdosed

Taste: Blackberry Lavender Tea
