Organic Energy Drink, 12 FZ
What You Should Know
You’d spot this fizzy organic energy drink in the refrigerated or energy-drink aisle of a grocery or at a convenience store — often shelved in the natural/organic section as a ‘cleaner’ pick-me-up. It feels trendy and convenient: sweet, carbonated and designed for quick energy boosts with a slightly wholesome marketing angle. Despite organic labels, the concentrated juices, added cane sugar, acids, flavorings and multiple botanical extracts point to a highly processed, standardized formulation typical of ultra-processed drinks.

Common Questions about Organic Energy Drink, 12 FZ
The GURU Energy Drink has some perks, like being organic and free from artificial ingredients. However, it does contain 30 grams of sugar per can, which is on the higher side. So, while it can provide a quick energy boost, it's best enjoyed in moderation, especially if you're watching your sugar intake.
