VitaCup, a brand of premium vitamin and superfood-infused coffees and teas, announced it has entered the energy shot category with the launch of its cold brew Coffee Lightning Shots. A new way to supplement the daily vitamin intake and boost energy levels, the new ready-to-drink Coffee Lightning Shots blend essential vitamins to wake up the body and mind with natural caffeine for a new kind of shot experience.

Lightning Shots feature a cold brew coffee concentrate made from organic, fair trade, dark roast coffee beans, infused with the brand's signature essential vitamin blend of B1, B5, B6, B9, B12, and D3 to give the body an extra boost of nutrients, along with extra natural caffeine from green coffee beans for double the energy. Formulated with 200mg of natural caffeine, they offer approximately 2 cups of regular coffee in just one deliciously smooth 2.5-ounce shot. Coffee Lightning Shots are available in two satisfying flavors, Cold Brew, a smooth black coffee, and Vanilla Cold Brew, a sweet vanilla coffee.

Launched in 2017, VitaCup has pioneered a complete line of vitamin and superfood-infused coffees and teas, including single-serve pods and capsules, ground coffee, and gourmet tea bags. The brand has earned recognitions including Beverage Industry's New Product of the Month, Kehe's Beverages Holiday Hot Products Award, and 2018 Family Choice Award. A June 2019 SPINS® update reported four VitaCup products ranking within the Top 25 Coffee Pods in the Natural Retail Channel, including the coveted #1 spot for their top seller, the Genius Blend.

Coffee Lightning Shots are available now in 2.5-ounce ready-to-drink, shelf-stable bottles.
