The old adage that you can sleep when you're dead might well be the inspirational sentiment behind the new Titan Cask AWAKE Energy Drink that promises to offer a quick, energizing boost throughout the day.
The energy drink from the casket brand is formulated with 200mg of caffeine in each can and has a zero sugar recipe that puts a citrus flavor in the spotlight. The drink from the casket manufacturer is reported to be best served cold before you are as a cheeky, macabre joke as a nod to the brand's bread and butter.
The Titan Cask AWAKE Energy Drink can be purchased via the brand's website in six packs priced at $25 and has already received news coverage for its lighthearted approach to the topic of death.
