Tater Boost is a savory, potato-based trail mash designed to fuel endurance athletes on long rides, runs, and long ass adventures. It’s a dry mix you prepare right in the pouch by adding liquid, then eat straight from the bag for warm, real-food energy on the go.

1. Open the pouch.

2. Add your liquid of choice (see “How can I hack Tater Boost?” below for ideas).

3. Seal the pouch and squeeze/massage it gently to mix. Using a spoon is ideal.

4. Open and enjoy directly from the bag with a spoon, or squeeze small bites as you go.

   
   
   

Water is just fine! But one of the best things about Tater Boost is how customizable it is. Here are some suggestions if you want to go wild:

• Use pickle juice

  • Adds more salt and tangy flavor.

  • Great for hot days or heavy sweaters who crave extra electrolytes.

  • Try mixing part water + part pickle juice to dial in the taste.

• Use meat or bone broth

  • Adds rich, savory flavor and additional electrolytes.

  • Perfect for cold, long days in the mountains or overnight efforts.

  • Works especially well with the Turmeric + Garlic flavor.

• Use veggie broth

  • A plant-based option that keeps things savory and comforting.

  • Nice for those who want something warm but light on the stomach.

• Mix with your favorite sports drink

  • Combine a mild, not-too-sweet electrolyte drink with Tater Boost for extra sodium and carbs.

  • Ideal if you want a bit of flavor and minerals without going all-in on sugar.

As always, test your favorite “hacks” on training days so you know what your stomach loves before race day.

Tater Boost is ideal for efforts lasting several hours. Many athletes use it:

• As a substantial snack or mini-meal before a long ride or run.

• During long efforts (4–10+ hours) when they’re sick of sweet gels and bars.

• At rest stops, on climbs, aid stations, or at camp when they want something warm and savory.

Think of one pouch as a “real-food pit stop” you can use instead of, or alongside, gels.

• Savory, not sugary – perfect when you can’t handle another sweet thing.

• Real-food style: potato-based mash with simple, recognizable ingredients.

• Customizable – mix with water, broths, or even pickle juice for your ideal flavor and electrolyte level.

• Gentle on the stomach for many athletes over long days compared to very sweet or highly processed options.

Everyone is different, but Tater Boost was created by endurance athletes who wanted something easier on the stomach than sugary gels. The simple ingredient list and savory profile tend to sit well for many athletes over long efforts.

If you’re unsure, test it (and any liquid “hacks” like pickle juice or broth) on a training ride or run before using it on race day.

Assuming you’ll use water:

Vegan: Tater Boost uses plant-based ingredients (potato, coconut milk powder, spices), so it is suitable for most plant-based diets.

Dairy: It contains coconut milk powder (from coconut), not dairy, but always check the label if you have specific allergies or intolerances.

Gluten: The core ingredients do not contain gluten.

You can customize the texture, but a good starting point is:

• You could add the liquid up to the red line on the back of the pouch.

• Add enough liquid to create a thick, spoonable mash.

• Start with a smaller amount, mix thoroughly, then add more until you reach your preferred consistency.

Try this at home first with water, then experiment with pickle juice, broths, or sports drinks until you find your perfect “recipe.”

Yes. Many athletes mix Tater Boost before a ride or run and carry it in their jersey pocket, vest, or pack. The resealable pouch is made to hold the mash securely.

Some people like mixing it with hot water or broth before a cold ride so it stays pleasantly warm for later in the day.

This depends on your size, intensity, and what else you eat, but as a rough guide:

• 2–4 hours: 1 pouch as a substantial snack.

• 4–8+ hours: 1–2 pouches, spaced between other snacks, bars, or gels.

• Multi-day trips / ultras: 1–3 pouches per big day as your savory, real-food anchor.

Always test your personal fueling plan on training days.

As a dry mix, Tater Boost does not need refrigeration before you add liquid. Once prepared, it’s best enjoyed within a few hours. For longer storage after mixing (e.g., all day on the trail), keep it sealed, out of direct sun, and use your judgment as you would with any ready-to-eat hot meal or mash.

Tater Boost is designed for:

• Endurance cyclists (gravel, road, MTB, bikepacking)

• Ultra runners and trail runners

• Hikers, backpackers, and trekkers

• Anyone who wants a warm, savory, real-food-style option instead of endless sweet snacks
