GORGIE x Gopuff collaborated to launch an exclusive, limited-edition energy seltzer flavor, recognizing their shared appeal among Gen Z through convenience, bold branding, and a strong digital presence. Created to coincide with the autumn equinox, Sparkling Cosmic Berry can only be found on Gopuff, and it shares a clean, functional boost with 150mg green tea caffeine, L-theanine, biotin, and B vitamins—and just five calories and zero sugar.

Notably, GORGIE is one of the few green-rated energy drinks on the YUKA app, and appeals to a new generation of drinkers in search of both natural energy and feel-good refreshment.
