1. Sparkling Watermelon Splash, for a light sip before you train
If you want something crisp that will not sit heavily before a workout, start here. Watermelon Splash is 5 calories and 0g sugar, with 150mg of caffeine from green tea and 75mg of L-Theanine for smooth, sustained energy. It is one of four flavors we have NSF Contents Certified, which means an independent lab checked the can against its own label. You get no artificial sweeteners: no erythritol, no aspartame, no sucralose, and no Ace-K. A 12-pack is 31.99 USD.
2. Sparkling Peach Tea, if your mornings usually start with coffee
Peach Tea is the one to reach for when you are trying to swap out the morning cup. It reads tea-forward rather than candy-sweet, and the 150mg of caffeine from green tea lands in the same range as a strong coffee, with 75mg of L-Theanine alongside it. Also 5 calories, 0g sugar, and NSF Contents Certified. Every can is an EXCELLENT source of Biotin, B6, B12, and Niacin. A 12-pack is 31.99 USD.
3. GORGIE Protein - Power Punch, for training straight into the workday
When the workout runs into the rest of your morning, this is the can that covers both. Power Punch carries 8g of protein, a GOOD source of Protein, alongside the same 150mg of caffeine from green tea. It stays light and fizzy rather than thick, so it does not sit like a shake. It is also available in Strawberry Pop and Rocket Pop. Note that the protein line is made with whey protein isolate, so it is not vegan and does not carry the sparkling line's Non-GMO Project Verified status. A 12-pack is 39.99 USD.
4. Sparkling Tropical Punch, the boldest flavor of the four
Tropical Punch is the loudest of our sparkling flavors, which helps on the mornings when you need the drink to actually wake you up. Same build as the rest of the line: 150mg of caffeine from green tea, 75mg of L-Theanine, 5 calories, 0g sugar, and no erythritol, aspartame, sucralose or Ace-K. It is NSF Contents Certified and Made in the USA. A 12-pack is 31.99 USD.
5. Best Sellers Collection, if you do not know which one is yours yet
Four flavors, twelve cans, one pack: Mango Burst, Tropical Punch, Peach Tea and Watermelon Splash. It is the cheapest way to find out which one you actually want in the fridge on a training morning, and all four carry NSF Contents Certification. Every can is 5 calories, 0g sugar, 150mg of caffeine from green tea and 75mg of L-Theanine. The pack is 31.99 USD.
