Mutant BCAA 9.7 is an amino acid drink powder in a 348 g tub with 30 scoops. This listing is the Sweet Iced Tea flavour. The name comes from the 9.7 g of amino acids in each scoop: 7.2 g of instantized branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs) in a 2:1:1 ratio of L-leucine, L-valine and L-isoleucine, plus 2.5 g of other amino acids. A scoop lists 0 g of carbohydrate and 0 g of sugar.

On the BCAA 9.7 panels, the remaining 2.5 g is a micronized stack of taurine, glycine, L-glutamine, L-arginine and L-tyrosine, alongside a blend of eight electrolytes and 5 mg of BioPerine black pepper extract.

Sweet Iced Tea flavour
Sweet Iced Tea is a lemon iced tea flavour, the most drinkable choice in the range for people who find fruit-candy flavours too sweet. Mixed at the full 500 mL it tastes close to a light bottled iced tea; at 250 mL it is more intense and sweeter. It is a good one to keep in the fridge in a large bottle for a hot day or a long session.
How to use it
Mix one scoop with 250 to 500 mL (8 to 16 fl oz) of cold water and shake or stir. The dose on the licence is one scoop a day for adults. On training days most people sip it during the session; on rest days it can be sipped through the day instead. More water gives a lighter taste and less water a more intense one. A scoop disperses after about ten seconds of shaking, and a mixed bottle can sit in the fridge for the rest of the day.
With no carbohydrate or sugar, it fits in a second water bottle next to a protein shake or a pre-workout without adding to your carb count for the day.

I like the product and I would recommend it to a friend. The sweet iced tea flavor is great and it mixes well with water or juice. I also like that it doesn't have any sugar added. It's a good product for people who are trying to cut down on their sugar intake. The only downside is that the container is a bit small
