OstroVit Cola-Flavoured Creatine Monohydrate
Creatine has very little flavour of its own, and that little flavour isn't always pleasant. OstroVit has therefore given it a cola flavour. You dissolve this creatine monohydrate in a glass of water and drink something that tastes surprisingly like a soft drink, without the fizz. Each 3-gram scoop provides 2600mg of creatine monohydrate. A 500-gram bag contains 166 servings.
Cola flavour in a glass of water
The recipe is simple. Creatine monohydrate, citric acid for a touch of tartness, a cola flavouring, and two sweeteners: sucralose and acesulfame K. These sweeteners are sweet even in small amounts, so they take up little room in your scoop. The label recommends 100 to 150ml of water or juice. Less water makes it more intense, more water makes it fresher. Try it with cold water first. Good to know: creatine settles at the bottom after a while. So stir it briefly and drink your glass straight away. A 500-gram bag gives you over five months' worth of cola in the morning or after your workout if taken daily.
What creatine is
Creatine is not a foreign substance to your body. A 70-kilogram adult has about 120 grams in their body, almost all of it in their muscles. Some is free creatine, the rest is phosphocreatine. The difference lies in that single phosphate group.
Creatine monohydrate
On the shelf you will find creatine in all sorts of forms: HCl, ethyl ester, buffered (Kre-Alkalyn), or nitrate. This product contains creatine monohydrate: creatine bonded to one water molecule. It is a stable form. You will see two numbers on the label. A 3-gram scoop provides 2600mg of creatine monohydrate, of which 2288mg is pure creatine. The rest is the water molecule. That 88 per cent ratio applies to all monohydrates, including those from other brands.
Anyone who wants to take creatine every day will prefer a flavour they don't mind. With this cola-flavoured version from OstroVit, your daily creatine monohydrate becomes a little treat rather than a mandatory mouthful. 166 servings, one scoop a day.
Why OstroVit’s Creatine Monohydrate Cola?
Cola flavor without bubbles
Dissolved in 100 to 150ml of water, it tastes like cola. The citric acid gives it a fresh edge.
2600mg creatine monohydrate per scoop
One 3-gram scoop (three-quarters of a scoop) provides 2600mg of creatine monohydrate, of which 2288mg is creatine.
166 servings in a 500-gram bag
With one scoop per day, a bag lasts well over five months.
Sweetened with sucralose and acesulfame K
Two sweeteners that taste sweet even in very small amounts, so the scoop consists mainly of creatine.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can you put creatine in coffee or tea?
You can, but the label recommends 100 to 150ml of water or juice. The taste of cola in hot tea takes some getting used to, so most people stick to cold water. Creatine dissolves slightly more easily in warm water. Do drink it right away, though, because creatine does not remain stable in liquid indefinitely.
When is the best time to take creatine?
The timing doesn't matter much, as long as you do it every day. The label recommends taking it after waking up or after training on training days, and after waking up on rest days. So choose a consistent time that is easy to stick to.
Why is there no 3 grams of creatine per serving?
Because a 3-gram scoop also contains flavorings. Of those 3 grams, 2600mg is creatine monohydrate; the rest is citric acid, flavoring, and sweetener for the cola flavor. Calculated out, you get 2288mg of pure creatine. If you want to know exactly what you are taking, always look at the 'of which creatine' line in the table.
Why does the cola flavor contain sweeteners?
Without a sweetener, creatine tastes slightly sandy and a bit bitter. OstroVit uses sucralose and acesulfame K, two sweeteners that taste sweet even in very small amounts. As a result, the cola flavor adds hardly any weight to your scoop. Citric acid provides the fresh kick. Prefer it without any additives at all? Then the natural flavor is an alternative.
What is the difference between the flavored version and the unflavored version?
The flavored version contains 2600mg of creatine monohydrate per 3-gram scoop, plus citric acid, flavoring, and sweeteners. The unflavored version contains 3000mg per 3 grams and nothing else. If you drink your creatine separately with water, the flavored version may taste better. If you mix it into a shake or juice, you may prefer the unflavored version.
