PURCHASE, N.Y. – Pure Leaf introduces Pure Leaf Mental Focus, the brand’s first line of sparkling, real brewed iced teas, made with naturally occurring caffeine from black tea and added L-theanine, to help support attention and focus. 

Jordan Chiles

In a world full of notifications, texts and endless to-dos, it has become increasingly difficult to focus on the projects that matter – a reason why more than 80% of Americans say they’re looking for ways to unplug and take a break from the digital world*. To introduce Pure Leaf Mental Focus, Pure Leaf is teaming up with two-time Olympic gymnast Jordan Chiles and digital wellness tool Brick to highlight the importance of finding focus when it’s needed most. 

Pure Leaf Mental Focus Key Features 

  • Product: New Pure Leaf Mental Focus, real brewed sparkling iced teas made with naturally occurring caffeine from black tea and added L-theanine (an amino acid found in tea leaves) 
  • Benefit: Formulated to help support attention and focus amid everyday distractions 
  • Flavors: Peach; Raspberry 
  • Nutrition: 69mg caffeine; 0g sugar; 0 calories (12 fl oz can) 
  • Availability: Nationwide including all major retailers, convenience stores, gas stations and online 

“Functional drinks are no longer niche. People want products that keep up with their lives,” says Zach Harris, Vice President and General Manager, Pepsi Lipton Tea Partnership North America. “Pure Leaf Mental Focus delivers great flavor, plus added benefits. It’s a real brewed iced tea with naturally occurring caffeine from black tea and added L-theanine, making it a smart option for busy days, especially as packed schedules and constant distractions have become the norm.” 

How Jordan Chiles Finds Her Focus 

Jordan Chiles knows what it takes to stay focused while juggling elite training, gymnastics competitions, school, and touring. Her ability to stay locked in under pressure reflects the mindset required to keep pace with a demanding schedule. Anchored by a consistent pre-competition routine that includes unplugging and meditating, Chiles prioritizes getting into the right headspace for whatever challenge comes next, big or small. Pure Leaf Mental Focus iced teas complement that routine, helping support focus throughout her day, from schoolwork to training to her daily to-do list. 

“My days move fast, and distractions can add up quickly,” says Chiles. “I’ve learned the biggest game changer is protecting my focus. Whether I’m heading into practice, studying, traveling, or preparing for a competition, I try to be intentional about where my energy goes and make sure I’m in the right headspace. Pure Leaf Mental Focus helps support my attention so I can lock in on what matters and take on whatever comes next.” 

The Mental Focus Dock 

In an era of nonstop notifications, texts, and endless scrolling, Pure Leaf is partnering with Brick, a digital wellness tool designed to temporarily block distracting apps and websites on phones. Together, they created the Mental Focus Dock, a custom coaster that holds a can of Pure Leaf Mental Focus and a Brick device. The dock’s base houses the Brick to enable blocking selected apps, while the top keeps Pure Leaf Mental Focus close at hand to help support focus and enable people to power through their to-do lists. 

Beginning April 28, 2026, consumers can enter for a chance to win a limited-edition Mental Focus Dock by visiting http://www.PureLeafMentalFocus.com. Winners will receive a Pure Leaf Mental Focus kit that includes both flavors of the new Pure Leaf Mental Focus iced tea – Raspberry and Peach, a Brick, and a limited-edition Mental Focus Dock.
