CELSIUS drops two new flavors just in time for peak summer, bringing bold energy to every sun-drenched occasion. Canada’s better-for-you energy drink brand is rolling out 'Sparkling Strawberry Passionfruit' and 'Sparkling Mango Lemonade' -- each designed to match the vibe of weddings, music festivals, and long weekend escapes.
The Strawberry Passionfruit is a tropical twist on sweet berry, landing exclusively at 7-Eleven stores. Meanwhile, Mango Lemonade channels sunshine in a can and will be available only at Circle K through the end of the year. Both flavours deliver CELSIUS’ signature functional boost -- featuring no sugar, no artificial preservatives, and essential energy-supporting ingredients.
CELSIUS’ dual-flavour drop smartly leverages retail exclusivity and seasonality to drive trial and regional buzz. By tapping convenience stores like 7-Eleven and Circle K, the brand secures high-traffic visibility while reinforcing its positioning as a functional beverage for on-the-go consumers.
