A History of Delicious

In 1972, my Dad, Hymie Golden, my Uncle, Lennie Marsh and their childhood friend Arnie Greenberg formed the Unadulterated Food Products Company and began selling natural fruit juices and sodas under the name L&A Juice Company. A few successful years later, they created a new family of natural iced teas and fruit drinks called Snapple. Not only did they start a beverage revolution, they built perhaps the most loyal, passionate fans of all time.

Inspired by my Dad’s love for making delicious drinks, I set out to create the next generation of healthy beverages. Together with a great team, we crafted an organic fruit drink powered by organic birch water that’s low calorie, naturally hydrating, and totally delicious. Say hello to Treo. I hope you love them as much as I do.

And Why Exactly Birch Water?

Birch water is sourced locally from birch trees in the mountains of Vermont and Upstate New York and is used to naturally sweeten our drinks. It contains the natural sugar xylitol which adds a subtle sweetness. Birch water also offers more health benefits than coconut water and is lower in sugar. Here is what birch sap does:

Enhances Flavor & Sweetness: Naturally occurring Xylitol adds natural sweetness (side note: good for teeth and gums)

Nutrient Boost: Contains antioxidants, vitamins and minerals and electrolytes, such as calcium, manganese and zinc, providing ideal hydration properties. Birch water also contains saponin, which is known for lowering cholesterol content

Naturally Hydrating: Used as a detox drink for generations in Northern Europe and Scandinavia. Birch Water has anti-aging and anti-inflammatory properties which help with arthritis and rheumatism, as well as detox and cleansing features that help the kidneys and liver
