About the drink
What is Golden Tiger?
Golden Tiger is a USDA Organic, sparkling functional drink. Each 12 fl oz can delivers 100 mg Bioactive Curcumin from turmeric, ginger with naturally occurring gingerol, and Vitamin C (100% DV), with 20 calories and 4 g sugar. It is designed to be enjoyed twice a day.
What flavors do you have?
Four: Mango (made with real Alphonso mango), Pineapple, Lemon Lime, and Green Tea (5.3 mg natural caffeine, out of stock right now). Not sure where to start? Take our 30-second flavor quiz.
What is Bioactive Curcumin?
Bioactive Curcumin is curcumin, turmeric’s principal active compound, prepared in two steps: first freed from the root and made more soluble (bioavailable), then prepared with a patent-pending heat process (bioactive), without black pepper or an oil carrier.
How much curcumin is in a can of Golden Tiger?
Each can contains 100 mg Bioactive Curcumin. Two cans a day, the schedule Golden Tiger was clinically tested on, provides 200 mg.
Why doesn’t Golden Tiger use black pepper or oil?
Black pepper (piperine) and oils are the traditional ways to help curcumin absorb, but even with them curcumin remains poorly absorbed. Golden Tiger uses a proprietary, patent-pending heat-solubilization process that raises curcumin’s own solubility, so no pepper or oil carrier is needed.
Is Golden Tiger clinically tested?
Yes. In a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled pilot study published in the Journal of Clinical Orthopaedics (2026), adults drank Golden Tiger or a placebo twice daily for 28 days. The Golden Tiger group showed greater improvement in joint comfort and function scores and significantly better sleep quality than placebo, and the drink was well tolerated. It was a small study, and larger studies are the next step.
How is Golden Tiger different from turmeric pills or shots?
Golden Tiger states its dose (100 mg Bioactive Curcumin per can), delivers it without pepper or oil, has been clinically tested as a finished drink, and is a sparkling beverage you enjoy rather than a pill or a sharp shot.
Is Golden Tiger a soda?
No. Golden Tiger is a sparkling functional drink built around 100 mg Bioactive Curcumin, ginger and Vitamin C, with 20 calories and 4 g sugar per can.
Does Golden Tiger taste like turmeric?
It tastes like sparkling fruit. Mango, Pineapple, Lemon Lime and Green Tea are bright and refreshing.
Ingredients and nutrition
Does Golden Tiger contain alcohol?
No. Golden Tiger is a non-alcoholic sparkling drink, and every recipe on our Recipes page is an alcohol-free mocktail.
How are your ingredients sourced and tested?
Golden Tiger is made in the USA with certified organic ingredients sourced worldwide, and our Mango flavor is made with organic Alphonso mango puree. Every ingredient lot arrives with a certificate of analysis. See What’s in Your Can for every ingredient, why it’s there and how it’s tested.
Can I use Golden Tiger in mocktails?
Yes. Our Recipes page has spritzes, slushies and coolers, each made with a full can so every glass still has 100 mg Bioactive Curcumin. Pour slowly and add the can last to keep the sparkle.
Is Golden Tiger organic?
Yes. Golden Tiger is certified USDA Organic. It is also gluten-free.
Does Golden Tiger have caffeine?
Mango, Pineapple and Lemon Lime are caffeine free. Green Tea has 5.3 mg natural caffeine per can.
How much sugar is in Golden Tiger?
4 g sugar and 20 calories per 12 fl oz can. It is plant-sweetened with organic blue agave and organic stevia leaf extract.
Does Golden Tiger support skin health?
Golden Tiger supports skin from within through nutrition and antioxidant support. Each can has a full day’s Vitamin C (100% DV), which the body needs to make collagen, plus curcumin and ginger, studied for antioxidant and healthy-inflammatory-response support. Our clinical study did not measure skin, and Golden Tiger is not a skin treatment.
How should I store Golden Tiger?
Cans are shelf stable for up to 18 months, so store them at room temperature. Golden Tiger tastes best chilled. Refrigerate after opening.
Daily ritual and safety
What is the Morning Reset?
A simple way to start the day from our founder’s free book: a few minutes of light before screens, a little movement, a glass of water, then your morning Golden Tiger. See it on our blog.
How many cans should I drink a day?
Enjoy one or two a day. Many people like one in the morning and one in the afternoon, the schedule used in our clinical study.
Who should talk to a doctor before drinking Golden Tiger?
Curcumin and ginger can affect blood clotting and blood sugar, and curcumin can stimulate the gallbladder. Talk with your healthcare provider first if you take blood thinners or diabetes medication, have gallbladder disease, are preparing for surgery, or are pregnant or nursing.
