High Noon Recalls Vodka Seltzer Cans Mislabeled as Energy Drinks

Okay, let's be real for a second. When you reach for what you think is your morning energy drink, expecting that familiar caffeine buzz, and instead take a sip only to realize it's actually vodka... that's not just confusing, it's kind of wild, right? Like something out of a sitcom that somehow became reality.

Well, friends, that's exactly what happened recently. Some folks thought they were cracking open a can of Celsius energy drink, but guess what was inside? Yep, High Noon vodka seltzer. Talk about an unexpected plot twist!

Now, before you start frantically checking every drink in your fridge, let me walk you through what happened, what to look out for, and most importantly, what you should do if you might have one of these mislabeled cans. Don't worry no one got hurt, but it's definitely one of those "how did this even happen?" moments that keeps you on your toes.

What Went Wrong Here?

Alright, let's dive into the nitty-gritty. So here's what went down: apparently, there was this third-party supplier that both Celsius and High Noon use for their cans. Sounds normal, right? Companies share suppliers all the time to keep costs down and production running smoothly.

But here's where things took a weird turn. This supplier accidentally sent High Noon a whole bunch of empty cans that were already branded with the Celsius label. Now, instead of catching this mix-up, High Noon went ahead and filled those Celsius-branded cans with their own vodka seltzer. The end result? You've got cans that look exactly like Celsius energy drinks but are actually filled with boozy goodness or confusion, depending on how you look at it.

I mean, think about it if you're someone who's trying to stay away from alcohol for personal, religious, or health reasons, or if you're just not of legal drinking age, this could be a pretty serious situation. Not to mention if you're hitting the gym thinking you're hydrating with an energy drink, only to realize you've been sipping on something that's 4.5% alcohol!

Affected Products and Locations

Now, I know what you're probably wondering: "Where did this happen, and which products are affected?" Let's break that down so you can check if you might have one of these cans at home.

The issue primarily affected six states: Florida, New York, Ohio, South Carolina, Virginia, and Wisconsin. Some distribution also made it to Michigan and Oklahoma, so if you live in those areas, it's worth paying attention.
