Ultimate Recall Alert: Vodka in Celsius Energy Drinks!

“Wait… My Pre-Workout Might Be 5% ABV?”

That was my first thought when my gym buddy Jake texted me a blurry photo of his Celsius Astro Vibe can—silver lid, blue-razz lightning bolt, and a tiny lot code that now reads like a crime scene.

Turns out, the FDA just confirmed that a batch of those “clean energy” cans is actually High Noon vodka seltzer in disguise.

Why the Heck Did This Happen?

Imagine a packaging supplier meant to ship empty Celsius cans to High Noon’s plant. Oops—they sent Celsius-labeled cans instead. The filler machines didn’t blink; vodka went in, lids went on, and 12-packs rolled out to eight states in under 72 hours.

FAQ – Because the Group Chat Is Freaking Out

How do I know if my Celsius is affected? Look for the silver lid and lot code L CCB 02JL25 02:55–03:11. If both match, it’s a vodka bomb.
Can I return it without a receipt? Yep. Email the photo of the can bottom + your PayPal or Zelle to consumerrelations@highnoonvodka.com.
Will I get sick if I already drank one? Unlikely—ABV is 5%, same as a light beer. If you feel woozy, call 1-800-FDA-1088.
