RYSE Fuel Popsicle Firecracker Is Built for the 4th

RYSE Fuel has been around for a while, and fans are enoying the Cognizin-upgraded formula, but it's time to kick it up a notch. With the 4th of July landing during America's 250th birthday summer, there's no better moment to pull out a can that's been waiting for exactly this occasion.

RYSE Fuel Energy Drink Popsicle Firecracker is a licensed collab with the Popsicle brand, built around the classic red-white-blue Firecracker frozen bar most people first encountered at a backyard cookout. Under the nostalgia hook, it runs the full RYSE Fuel nootropic stack: 200mg natural caffeine from green coffee bean, Cognizin® citicoline, L-theanine, N-Acetyl-L-Tyrosine, L-carnitine, and huperzine A, all in a zero-sugar, no-artificial-colors 16 fl oz can. If you're stocking the cooler for the holiday and want something that does more than keep you upright, this is the pick.

Firecracker: The Flavor That Picked Its Moment

The original Popsicle Firecracker is a tri-color frozen bar -- cherry on the outside, lime in the middle, blue raspberry at the core. RYSE's can carries that same red, white, and blue identity in its packaging design, with a light blue background, red and magenta shapes, and the Firecracker name front and center.

The product page positions the flavor around that cherry-lime-blue raspberry profile. It's a carbonated interpretation of a very specific childhood memory, which is exactly how RYSE has played their nostalgia collab strategy across the full Fuel lineup -- Ring Pop Cherry, Kool-Aid Tropical Punch, SunnyD Tangy Original, Country Time Lemonade. The Firecracker slots in as one of the more season-appropriate pulls from that roster, and the 4th of July timing makes it an easy conversation-starter at any gathering.

This is a permanent flavor, not a limited seasonal drop. It'll be around past July, but right now it has an obvious reason to be in people's hands.

Available as a 12-pack on Amazon and at other retailers carrying the Fuel line. The PricePlow-powered links here show current pricing and availability.

Quick Formula Check

Firecracker runs the same core formula as every other RYSE Fuel SKU. The Amazon label confirms the same full ingredient list. If you want the deep dive on the science and doses behind each active, the RYSE Fuel product explainer covers it thoroughly. Here's what's in the can at a buyer level:

• Natural Caffeine (from Green Coffee Bean) (200mg) - Blocks the tiredness signal in your brain and drives alertness. The green coffee bean source delivers the same molecule as synthetic caffeine anhydrous, just from a cleaner-label origin.
• Cognizin® Citicoline (250mg) - The ingredient that separates Fuel from a standard energy drink. Cognizin is a clinically studied branded form of citicoline that supports the brain signaling behind focus and memory. The 250mg dose matches what research on this specific branded form has used.
• L-Theanine (100mg) - Smooths out caffeine's edge without dulling the focus. The 2:1 caffeine-to-theanine ratio here is one of the better-studied pairings in the category.
• N-Acetyl-L-Tyrosine (500mg) - Helps your brain make dopamine under stress. The N-acetyl form is better suited to a beverage format than standard tyrosine for solubility reasons.
• L-Carnitine (500mg) - Supports fat burning and contributes to energy production. It falls below the doses used in most targeted recovery research, but it adds to daily intake and signals that RYSE is thinking past the caffeine-and-B-vitamins baseline.
• Huperzine A (from Huperzia Serrata Extract) (100mcg) - Slows the breakdown of acetylcholine in the brain, extending the focus signal. It pairs directly with the citicoline: one ingredient builds acetylcholine supply, the other slows its breakdown.
• Potassium (as Potassium Citrate) - A partial electrolyte contribution, not a hydration-focused dose, but present.
• Other ingredients - Carbonated water, natural and artificial flavors, phosphoric acid, citric acid, sucralose, potassium sorbate (preservative), sodium benzoate (preservative). Zero artificial colors.
