Competition: Battle of the Beverages - Caffeine Clash

It’s time for the Graphics comp to end all Graphics comps. The one all you caffeine fiends have been waiting for . . . the Battle of the Beverages!
Prompt
All you have to do is design an in-universe energy drink. We all know caf, but we need something that our characters can pick up at their local refueling station (like the Shame Corner, hint hint wink wink) and when caf machines are in short supply.
Although it isn’t required, we highly encourage you to include a name and brief description of the energy drink in the text submission box alongside your entry.
