USN and Clover expanded Krush with a four-drink range that gives the juice brand a wellness angle. The ‘Krush Functional Juices’ pair familiar fruit drinks with added functional ingredients, moving the line beyond standard juice into drinks built around specific uses.
Among the four, ‘Fiber Fuel’ combines fiber with electrolytes and zinc, while ‘Collagen Glow’ adds collagen for appearance and wellness support. The lineup also includes an immune-focused option and a greens-led bottle, giving buyers a choice between daily support and more targeted benefits.
USN and Clover show how giving retailers a drink family that can sit in both juice and functional beverage sets can broaden Krush’s shelf role and give shoppers a simpler way to pick a flavor by benefit, rather than treating wellness drinks as a separate aisle.
