The Quake energy drink has been unveiled by 7-Eleven as a new private label product that will offer consumers a way to boost their alertness in an alternative way.
Free from sugar and artificial flavors, the drinks come in four flavor options including Orange Fusion, Original, Tropical Lemon and Berry Blast. Each one contains creatine, electrolytes, COQ10 and branched chain amino acids, which will likely make the refreshments a welcome product to sporting individuals.
