Did you know that Sparkling KiKi Maple Water is copacked in HACCP certified facility?
What does HACCP stand for ? Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point (HACCP)
HACCP is a management system in which food safety is addressed through the analysis and control of biological, chemical, and physical hazards from raw material production, procurement and handling, to manufacturing, distribution and consumption of the finished product.
This is a significant milestone for the company. Prior to 2024 our copackers where CFIA certifiied CFSR, HACCP provides the next level of assurance that opens more doors for us across Canada, around the globe, around the corner and throughout our communities.

Why is HACCP certification important?
The international HACCP certification can confirm that a company has set up a system to ensure the safety of its food products. “It means that you’ve assessed the risks and are controlling your critical points,". explains Isabelle Ledoux, Senior Business Advisor, BDC Advisory Services.

This morning I received a lovely email and one of the articles was about the Monday Blues. I forgot about this, I guess it happens to many people.
"Mondays typically aren’t fun for most people. The weekend is over, it’s the start of the work week with many emails to catch up on, and there are five days to go until you have two glorious days off again."
1st Tip
Just because Blue Monday is upon us, doesn’t mean you can’t combat it. Here’s what you can do to feel better when the winter blues roll around.
Consider having dinner with your family or close friends, or just hanging out with your four-legged friend (Mercy loves to go with me for road trips). Being around your loved ones isn’t just a mood booster, it’s also a good distraction from the day itself.

My favourite Tip, is to get a Maple Water beverage. Natures Energy Water , try our Maple Sap Beverage, Sparkling KiKi Maple Lemon, Cranberry, Blueberry or Strawberry #SimplyRefreshing
WHY MAPLE WATER?
Maple water is the name that the industry decided to call Maple Sap. Maple Sap is the term for the liquid that comes from the tree. It is present in every tree and is utilized by the tree to move energy and nutrients between the roots to the leaves. During the freezing winter months the maple tree stores the sap in the roots. As the weather warms up in the spring the sap moves up to the branches to provide these nutrients to grow the new leaves.
Maple Water contains all the nutrients needed to keep a strong and tall sugar maple tree healthy! With over 64 antioxidants, 80 nutrients, amino and organic acids, Maple Water beverages are an ideal source to restore your electrolytes and rehydrate.
The Iron, Zinc, Calcium, and Magnesium present in Maple Water are just some of the essential minerals your body needs to stay healthy.

One of our ESG initiatives at Natures Energy Water Corporation (NEWC) and Brock Shores Financial is to plant trees. Today NEWC invested in planting an additional 127 trees in Ontario on behalf of our beverage brands Sparkling KiKi Maple Lemon, Cranberry, Blueberry, and Strawberry. These beverages are made from 100% Pure Canadian Maple Sap. I invite you to check out one of the organizations that we have discovered and partnered with to do this for us. Here is a link for a gift to plant a free tree of your own.
Cheers ! Tim Ross , Chief Weekend Warrior NEWC

Blueberries are spherical or semispherical or semispherical, tiny, soft, and sweet blue fruits ranging from 0.7 to 1.5 cm in diameter.
These fruits can be consumed without peeling or cutting and contain glucose and fructose. Blueberries were popularized as a “super fruit” due mainly to their high antioxidant activity and abundant bioactive compounds.
Despite the benefits of blueberries, they are seasonal fruit.
Lowbush blueberries are typically grown for processed blueberries used in baked goods, yogurts, and fresh and processed organic fruit.
Highbush blueberry fruit is used fresh and frozen for use in processed foods.
In countries that are large blueberry producers, blueberries not intended for fresh consumption are most often frozen in fluidized tunnel freezers. In the world markets, fresh blueberries are sold in retail packages, and frozen blueberries are sold in bulk packages.
The latter, as half-products, are used for processing, that is, for making jams, conserves, or juices. Fruit collected by machine is sorted and stored, and most of it is later sold for industrial processing. The advantage of such a procedure is the effective use of almost the entire crop. Even unripe and defective fruit can be processed.
Healthy but damaged fruit is processed as an ingredient for yogurts or ice creams, whereas unripe fruit is treated as a source of selected biologically active compounds.
Generally, blueberries in a fresh form consist of water, carbohydrates, proteins, and fat. Blueberries are a good source of dietary fiber that constitutes 3% – 3.5% of fruit weight, which may be varied depending on the horticultural practices.
Besides the taste, the main interest in this fruit is due to the moderate vitamin C content and other vitamins like vitamins A, D, and E. One hundred grams of blueberries provide, on average, 10 mg of ascorbic acid, which is equal to 1/3 of the daily recommended intake.
Moreover, blueberries have bioactive compounds such as flavonoids (especially anthocyanins), tannins, and phenolic acids, as well as various beneficial health properties attributed to blueberries.
*The active compounds may be varied depending on the horticultural practices of the plantation.
