Creamy and refreshing. Pineapple brings bright, citrusy notes and coconut rounds it off with a soft, velvety sweetness. The most tropical of the range, made for hot days.
We make it with rice syrup, agave syrup, pineapple, coconut milk powder and a pinch of pink Himalayan salt. Ingredients you recognise, in a gel you still feel like opening in the last hour of the ride.
Per 60 g gel: 46.6 g of carbohydrate, 194 kcal and around 300 mg of sodium.
How to take it
1 to 3 gels maximum every 60 minutes of exercise, with about 300 ml of water. As a guide, 2 or 3 are usually enough for a 2-hour ride.

FAQ
Why rice and agave syrup?
Rice syrup provides glucose-based carbohydrates and agave mostly fructose. It’s the combination race gels look for, made with kitchen ingredients.
And for a long event?
For an ultra of more than 5 hours, between 6 and 8 gels, switching flavours so you don’t tire of them.
Is it suitable for coeliacs and vegans?
Yes. All PICO gels are gluten-free and suitable for vegans.
How long do they keep?
Over a year from when we make them. The best-before date and batch number are printed on each sachet.
Do I need to be an elite athlete?
Not at all. They’re made for anyone who rides, runs in the mountains or hikes for hours.
