Launched in 1992 by the Austrian food company S. Spitz, Power Horse has grown into a global brand, particularly dominating markets in Africa and the Middle East. It is now managed by Power Horse Energy Drinks GmbH, with headquarters in Linz, Austria, and Dubai.
The drink is formulated with high-quality ingredients, including pure Austrian mountain spring water, which serves as its base. Its energy-boosting properties come from a specific concentration of 32mg of caffeine per 100ml (equivalent to a strong cup of coffee per serving) and taurine, an amino acid that supports metabolic processes. To aid in recovery and reduce fatigue, it is enriched with a B-vitamin complex (B2, B6, B12, Niacin, and Pantothenic acid).
The flavor profile is often described as sweet and fruity with subtle herbal undertones and a clean, citrus-like finish. Unlike many competitors that focus strictly on extreme sports, Power Horse positions itself as a pragmatic companion for "everyday heroes"—professionals, students, and athletes who need sustained energy to excel in their own worlds. It is 100% vegan, halal, and alcohol-free, making it a versatile choice both as a standalone refreshment and a popular mixer for cocktails.
