Mesquite has been used as a staple food for centuries by desert dwelling peoples. The mesquite tree produces leguminous pods that are ground into a fine powder which has an incredible rich, nutty, smoky, molasses-like flavor, with a hint of caramel. Mesquite powder contains nutrients such as fiber, protein, potassium, zinc, calcium, and magnesium.
The Sunfood Difference
Our mesquite powder is organically grown and dried at low temperatures. Mesquite's combination of calcium and magnesium make it a great food for bone health. While other products are coarse and grainy, this mesquite is gently ground into a fine, raw powder, with a texture perfect for smoothies and other beverages.
