Energizing Refreshers (LIT TEAs)

Around here, they're famous as our LIT TEAs.

LIT TEAs are Fuel Up's signature energy drinks: bright, fruit-forward iced teas that trade heavy syrup for real refreshment. Every flavor is powered by green-tea caffeine — 160mg in a 24 oz, 240mg in a 32 oz — with less than 1g of sugar.

Made fresh in Bolingbrook.

Four colorful LIT TEA energizing refreshers lined up in front of the Fuel Up logo

Flavors run from sweet (Strawberry Cucumber, Tropical Splash) to refreshing (Watermelon Cucumber, Cucumber Mojito with a hint of Tajín) to sour (Skittles, Electric Lemonade). If you'd normally reach for an energy drink or a second coffee, this is the colorful upgrade.

When a LIT TEA fits your day

  • Morning kick-start

    A 24 oz LIT TEA delivers about as much caffeine as two cups of coffee — cold, fruity, and easy to sip on the drive.

  • Afternoon pick-me-up

    The 3 PM slump is the most popular LIT TEA hour. Grab one instead of a vending-machine soda.

  • Pre-workout

    Caffeine before the gym, without a heavy stomach. Pair it with a protein donut if you need fuel too.

What's inside

  • Green-tea caffeine

    Every LIT TEA gets its energy from green tea — 160mg in the 24 oz and 240mg in the 32 oz, always disclosed on the menu.

  • Real fruit flavor

    Strawberry, watermelon, mango, pineapple, passion fruit, grape, and citrus do the heavy lifting — not sugar. Every flavor has less than 1g.

  • Tajín & garnishes

    Cucumber wheels, lemon slices, and a rim of Tajín on the Watermelon Cucumber add texture and a little kick.
