The HIGH5 Energy Gel Raspberry Caffeine is a dual-action endurance gel designed to provide both quick carbohydrate energy and a moderate caffeine boost during exercise.
What it is
This is a sports energy gel with caffeine, combining:
-
23g fast-acting carbohydrates for immediate energy
-
30mg caffeine for alertness and focus
- Raspberry flavour for a quick, palatable intake during exercise
Key benefits
-
Quick energy boost when intensity increases or fatigue starts
-
Mild caffeine dose to improve mental sharpness without being too strong
- Helps maintain performance in long endurance sessions
- Convenient, pocket-sized fuel for on-the-go use
How caffeine helps here
With 30mg caffeine (lower than high-stim gels), it can:
- improve focus and reaction time
- slightly reduce perceived effort
- help maintain consistency late in long rides or runs
This makes it more “everyday usable” than high-caffeine race gels.
When to use it
Best used:
- during long MTB or road rides when energy dips
- before short hard efforts or intervals
- late in endurance sessions for a gentle lift
- as part of a mixed fueling strategy (with drinks and gummies)
How it fits into a fueling plan
In a typical endurance setup:
-
Energy Drink → steady carbohydrate base
-
Energy Gummies → gradual top-ups
-
Raspberry Caffeine Gel → small caffeine boost + quick energy when needed
-
Higher caffeine gels (like 100mg versions) → reserved for race-critical moments
Bottom line
This gel is a moderate-caffeine endurance fuel, giving you quick carbs plus a lighter stimulant effect to help sustain energy and focus without the stronger kick of high-dose caffeine gels.
