Taco Bell adds three energy drinks to nationwide beverage menu
Taco Bell is adding three energy drinks nationwide, each containing 120 milligrams of caffeine and vitamin B [1][2]. The lineup includes a Pineapple Citrus Energy Refresher and a Strawberry Tropics Energy Refresher, both priced at $4.49 for a 20-ounce drink, plus a Pineapple Citrus Energy Freeze at $3.99 [2]. The drinks join existing specialty options such as Agua Refrescas and Rockstar Energy Refrescas, which launched last year [1][2]. Other chains have made similar moves, with McDonald's introducing a Red Bull Dragonberry Energizer earlier in August and Panera launching Energy Refreshers in March [1].
