G Fuel Energy Formula identifies itself as the official [eSports](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/g-fuel) energy drink and to help gamers continually fuel themselves in a way that's festive, it launched a special Pink Grapefruit flavor for [Valentine's](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/marys-brigadeiro-sweets) Day. With the release of the all-new Pink Grapefruit G Fuel, the brand acknowledges that "successful relationships and competitive gaming both require focus and energy."

The limited-edition citrus flavor is set to be available just before Valentine's Day this year in special boxes for collectors, which include a tub and a Panther Pink shaker.

The "[official energy drink of eSports](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/g-fuel-6)" boasts a formula that's sugar-free, provides 25 calories per serving and delivers antioxidants from 19 fruit extracts, along with hydration, plus the energy and endurance players need while gaming.
