GHOST Energy Iced Tea Lemonade flavor delivers the perfect summer refreshment, combining tangy lemon with smooth tea notes in their zero-sugar, fully transparent formula.
GHOST Energy is kicking off summer 2025 with a classic flavor that needs no introduction – Iced Tea Lemonade. Dropping on May 5th, this Arnold Palmer-inspired creation brings the perfect balance of tangy lemon and smooth tea notes just in time for warmer weather.
Onward and Upward for GHOST Energy
The release shows that GHOST continues to bring the heat in the flavor department, even after ending their long-standing partnership with Mondelez earlier this year. If anything, the brand seems more determined than ever to prove they don’t need licensed collaborations to create killer flavors.

The Arnold Palmer of Energy Drinks Has Arrived
In a sad and seemingly-bitter ending to a successful 7-year partnership, Mondelez has filed a lawsuit against GHOST, demanding destruction of all remaining branded inventory just two weeks before Ghost’s proposed sell-through date.
While GHOST won’t officially call it an “Arnold Palmer”, energy drink fans know exactly what they’re getting with Iced Tea Lemonade. The flavor combines the refreshing tang of fresh-squeezed lemons with smooth black tea notes in perfect harmony, creating that quintessential summer beverage experience that’s both familiar and exciting.
The timing of this release couldn’t be better – kicking off summer 2025 with a flavor that screams refreshment makes perfect strategic sense. Interestingly, Iced Tea Lemonade has been on GHOST’s radar since the early days of their energy drink development, but perfecting the balance between tea and lemon notes apparently took time to get just right.
And the result is phenomenal. This one tastes… different… and in a really good way. It’s a strong flavor, both in terms of sweetness and in tang, and is probably the best iced tea lemonade we’ve had.
For fans of GHOST’s supplement lineup, this flavor might seem familiar – the brand previously offered Iced Tea Lemonade in their GHOST Greens and Amino products, and again in 2023, where it became a fan favorite. Now, it’s finally making its way to their flagship energy drink.
Same Legendary Formula, Fresh New Flavor
Like all GHOST Energy drinks, Iced Tea Lemonade delivers their fully transparent, zero-sugar formula that includes:
-
Carnipure L-Carnitine L-Tartrate – 1000mg
L-carnitine L-tartrate helps transport fatty acids into the mitochondria where they can be burned for energy, supporting both energy production and metabolism. GHOST specifically uses Carnipure from Lonza because it remains stable in liquid form, unlike other carnitine forms they initially tested.
-
Taurine – 1000mg
A clinical 1-gram dose of taurine works alongside caffeine to enhance both mental and physical performance. This amino acid has been shown to improve muscle force production, support endurance, and sharpen focus – making it far more than just a standard energy drink ingredient.
-
Natural Caffeine – 200mg
GHOST uses natural caffeine from coffee beans rather than synthetic caffeine anhydrous for a smoother energy curve and reduced crash potential. The 200mg dose hits the sweet spot that appeals to a wide range of consumers.
-
Alpha-GPC 50% – 150mg
Alpha-GPC is a choline source that supports cognitive function and power output. This highly bioavailable form of choline helps produce acetylcholine, making it valuable for focus and mental clarity.
-
NeuroFactor Coffee Fruit Extract – 100mg
A unique ingredient that sets GHOST Energy apart, NeuroFactor is derived from coffee fruit and helps boost levels of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) for enhanced cognitive support.
-
AstraGin – 25mg
AstraGin combines astragalus and panax notoginseng root extracts in an effort to potentially help enhance the absorption of other nutrients while supporting gut health.
Judge dismisses lawsuit against GHOST Energy for candy-themed branding, ruling no reasonable consumer would think Sour Patch Kids drinks are for children. Major industry win.

GHOST Energy: Unstoppable Momentum
The launch of Iced Tea Lemonade continues GHOST’s momentum in 2025, which has already seen the brand navigate significant changes. After their acquisition by Keurig Dr Pepper for $1.65 billion in late 2024, GHOST has been restructuring parts of their business.
While the termination of their partnership with Mondelez meant saying goodbye to popular collaborations like Sour Patch Kids and Swedish Fish, it hasn’t slowed down the brand’s innovation pipeline. If anything, it’s sparked even more creativity.
Before that, this resilience was also on display when the company successfully defended their candy-themed marketing approach against a class action lawsuit claiming they marketed to children. Sad to see Mondelez bail on such a great partnership with fights won hand-in-hand, but it’s clear GHOST is an unstoppable force regardless of candies.
With their legal battles behind them and new resources from KDP, GHOST appears poised for even bolder moves in the energy drink space. For those interested in the brand’s journey in the energy drink market, Dan Lourenço shared fascinating insights in Episode #116 of the PricePlow Podcast, where he discussed the meteoric rise of Ghost Energy.
