High Noon: Vodka Seltzers Mistaken for Celsius in Wisconsin

Residents of Wisconsin might want to verify their Celsius cans again.

High Noon is issuing a recall of mixed cases following an error where certain vodka sodas were incorrectly labeled as energy beverages, according to a recall notice from the United States Food and Drug Administration.

A recall notice dated July 30 states that the High Noon Beach Variety 12-packs include cans that were incorrectly labeled as Celsius Astro Vibe Sparkling Blue Razz Edition.
