Family sued after Sarah Katz died last year after drinking Charged Lemonade, apparently unaware of soda’s high caffeine content

I do see the sign, and they could be clearer about the amount of caffeine. But it’s not like you’re just ordering “a lemonade” and they bring it to you and surprise!
It’s like buying a hard lemonade and being shocked that it has alcohol in it. Just like “rockstar”, “go”, “rowdy”, “full throttle”. “Charged” suggests an energy drink that happens to be lemonade flavored.
And if I were sensitive to caffeine I’d be cautious about anything named like that.
She likely didn't ask for a "Charged Lemonade," she asked for a 30 oz fountain cup and filled it up at the self serve kiosk. There's no reason to assume she knew it was called "charged lemonade," because like I already said, nobody pays attention to the marketing fluff.
So you didn’t actually look at your own picture where it is clearly labeled as “charged lemonade”?
There's only so many ways I can say the phrase "people don't look at small text when it looks like marketing fluff" before I start repeating myself
I would hope people read as far as the product name but okay.
