I'm shocked it took this long. The caffeine content in that shit is MIND BLOWING. When you buy a energy drink you know what you are signing up for. But a lemonade with 260 to 390mg of caffeine??? That's pushing the limit of a ~~healthy~~ safe daily dose for an average adult
Why the fuck would lemonade of all things have caffeine anyway?
Because it's called 'Charged Lemonade'.
Charged, like the thing that you do to your phone to put energy into it.
Mike's hard lemonade exists... Has alcohol in it.
Because someone made it and people buy it?
Why shouldn't lemonade have caffeine? Because you think it shouldn't? Lol.
That's about the same as a large coffee, but nobody blinks an eye at that. https://www.cspinet.org/caffeine-chart
Because then people know what they're getting. That's why. She wouldn't have bought a large coffee like that
That's why you use your eyes and read the sign that clearly states "as much caffeine as our dark roast".
Nah even that source shows most coffees are 100ish mg
It absolutely does not. 100mg per what? They list different quantities of each drink on that source. If you look at it from a mg/fl-oz perspective, you'll see that the lemonades are on par with coffee.
Holy shit yeah actually. That's a huge fucking coffee is it not? I mean 20 oz is huge.

8 oz to 10 oz is what I would expect a cup of coffee to be. FDA estimates 100ish for an 8 oz. I had no idea Starbucks served giant ass coffees like that lmfao
20oz is pretty standard from what I've seen for large hot coffees. I believe that the dunkin large iced coffees are like 30oz(while hot is 20). Relatively standard sizes in the US tbh.
Ain't Nothin healthy about that lol
Lol. Fixed now.
It's more than a litre of red bull in one drink.
Wild lemonade leaves woman very excited lol 😆
