The Alani Nu Lime Slush energy drink is being added to the better-for-you energy brand's product portfolio as a limited time offering that celebrates the impending arrival of springtime. The drink features top tasting notes of sweet, zesty lime and evolves on the finish to reveal smooth, creamy lemon notes as a nod to the lime slushie from years past. The drink comes in 12-ounce cans with 200mg of caffeine, zero sugar and 10-calories per serving, while also featuring a blend of B vitamins, a vegan-friendly formulation and a gluten-free recipe with no sugar.
The Alani Nu Lime Slush energy drink is hitting store shelves this month and will be on offer for a short time to help build excitement around the seasonal shift through limited-edition flavor experiences.
