It began some years ago with a family member's allergy to coconut water and my search for an alternative for when you don't want "boring" water, flavoured water, artificially enhanced, sugary, sugar-substituted, caffeinated soft drink or energy drink.

​

As a biochemist and toxicologist, my quest led to research the scientific studies surrounding prickly pear cactus. A plant with natural vitamins and minerals used for generations by many people in parts of the world, the studied potential health benefits were worth pursuing. With a key aspect ensuring an appropriate amount of prickly pear components was used, the goal was to create a great tasting healthy drink for all.

​

Uniquely formulated with prickly pear concentrated extract and juice, sparkling and still versions were created to deliver a premium low calorie drink that's a real alternative to other soft drinks. With its naturally refreshing unique great taste and potential functional benefits, our cactus water is not just another drink - it's a revolutionary healthy and recovery drink.

​

Our original name, PRCK, was bold and memorable, but as the brand evolved, we wanted something clearer and more refined. That’s where PRKL comes in — pronounced “PRICKLE”, a nod to the prickly pear cactus at the heart of the drink. Launching first in the UK, PRKL is a clean hydration drink designed to support your lifestyle with the natural power of prickly pear.

 

We're here to shake things up and if you've read this far, congratulations - you're part of the cactus revolution.
