High Noon issues recall over vodka seltzers mislabeled as Celsius energy drinks

(NewsNation) — Some drink packs are being recalled after Celsius Astro Vibe energy drink cans were mistakenly filled with High Noon vodka seltzer.

The recall affects two production lots of High Noon Beach Variety packs. While the cans contain vodka seltzer, the company says they were mislabeled as "sparkling blue razz"-flavored Celsius Astro Vibe energy drinks.

While there have not been any consumer-reported issues with the impacted drinks, the company said in a press release that "consumption of the liquid in these cans will result in unintentional alcohol ingestion."

The affected lots were sold in Florida, Michigan, New York, Ohio, Oklahoma, South Carolina, Virginia, and Wisconsin. The recall is specifically for High Noon Beach Variety Packs with the lot codes L CCC 17JL25 14:0 to L CCC 17JL25 23:59 and L CCC 18JL25 00:00 to L CCC 18JL25 03:00.

Consumers with cans of Celsius Astro Vibe sparkling blue razz drinks that were not in the variety pack are advised to verify that they are not associated with the lot codes L CCB 02JL25 2:55 to L CCB 02JL25 3:11 before drinking.

If you have products in the affected lot codes, you should dispose of them without drinking. If you have the affected drinks and have questions or would like a refund, contact consumerrelations@highnoonvodka.com.

The issue has been traced back to a shared packaging supplier who mistakenly shipped empty Celsius cans to High Noon, which were filled and included in the variety packs.

Celsius was not involved with the mislabeling incident and is working with High Noon and parent company Gallo to recall the drinks.
