5-hour Energy has long dominated the compact energy category with its small but potent two-ounce format, built around a blend of B vitamins, amino acids, and caffeine for quick, convenient, and tastefully flavored energy. The brand has rolled out a wide variety of options over time, especially over the last couple of years, from traditional fruit-forward tastes to more creative candy profiles, and in a few weeks, we’re getting another one of those sweet and intriguing flavors.
Launching in just over two weeks, right on National Licorice Day on April 10th, the dominating 5-Hour Energy is launching a tasty Red Licorice option, a flavor clearly inspired by the classic soft and chewy candy with an infusion of sweet strawberry. The upcoming Red Licorice 5-Hour Energy Shot will have 230mg of caffeine in a pocket-sized bottle, and it’ll only be available online through the brand’s own website or the giant Amazon, but be quick, as it is a limited drop.
