Building upon the success of the fan-favorite Energy + Immunity shot, Vive Organic expanded its energy line with two new products, including Energy Extra Strength. "Consumers want more from their energy products, like clean ingredients, functional benefits, and a boost that's not followed by a crash," said Nicole Portwood, Chief Marketing Officer at Suja Life. Energy Extra Strength packs 150 milligrams of caffeine, combined with cordyceps for performance.
As part of the Suja Life-owned brand's line expansion, the now-reformulated Energy + Immunity shot features enhanced functionality, and the new Energy + Focus features 75 milligrams of caffeine, plus L-theanine and lion's mane mushroom to boost mental clarity. These plant-powered, USDA Certified Organic wellness shots are free from added sugar, artificial flavors, and dyes, and they're cold-pressed to optimize their nutritional value and freshness.
