A shocking Celsius recall has put thousands at risk of involuntary intoxication. High Noon’s vodka was accidentally put in Celsius energy drink cans. This mistake could lead to DUI Celsius charges for people who didn’t know they were drinking alcohol (Involuntarily Intoxicated) .
What Happened with the Celsius Recall?
Between July 21-23, 2025, High Noon filled Celsius Astro Vibe energy drink sparkling blue razz cans with vodka seltzer by mistake. These cans went to stores in six states. People thought they were buying energy drinks but got alcohol instead.
The FDA issued a Celsius recall notice after finding out. But many people had already drunk these mislabeled cans out of the high noon beach variety packs. This led to involuntary intoxication.
Understanding Involuntary Intoxication
This happens when you consume alcohol by accident. The Celsius recall is a perfect example. You wanted caffeine but got vodka instead.
Nevada law sees involuntary intoxication differently than regular drinking. But this doesn’t mean you’re safe from DUI Celsius criminal charges. Police care about your blood alcohol level, not how it got there.
