Outsourcing manufacturing has its downsides.
Are any drink manufacturers fully vertically integrated? I think most of them outsource can and bottle manufacturing, even big manufacturers like Coca-Cola. They're in the business of making drinks, not making cans and bottles (which don't have any special features compared to cans and bottles used by other companies), so it makes sense to use a vendor that has experience in that area.
Coca-Cola atleast some plants have blow molders for plastic bottles. Making cans is a massive ordeal and requires its own plant, so if they have the space they could probably do it as well. A plastic blowmolder is under 100sqft. Makes more economical sense to ship in blanks and make your own than shipping 10x empty air volume.
Anheuser-Busch manufactures cans and bottles
Anheuser Busch owns and operates aluminum can plants (Metal Container Corporation). MCC supplies Anheuser Busch breweries and Pepsi Beverages Group fillers across the US. Suppliers to Anheuser-Busch Companies include Owens-Illinois, which provides glass bottles to several Anheuser-Busch breweries. Anheuser-Busch also owns glass production facilities, such as the former Longhorn Glass, which provides glass for the Houston brewery.

Coca Cola is unique in that the company itself only produces concentrated syrups which it sells to franchises that handle bottling.
Don't threaten me with a good time
High Noon said that an unspecified number of its Beach Variety packs contain cans are filled with High Noon vodka seltzer alcohol but have been mislabeled as Celsius Astro Vibe energy drink, Sparkling Blue Razz Edition, with a silver top.
The products were shipped to retailers in Florida, New York, Ohio, South Carolina, Virginia and Wisconsin from July 21 to July 23.
Wait, so they're still being sold correctly, but the can alone is mislabeled? The Variety pack is sold as a High Noon product which you expect to contain alcohol, presumably in a box or something similar, and the cans themselves inside have the correct product, just with the wrong labeling?
That's not nearly as big of an issue as the headline wants you to infer. These aren't individual cans sitting on a shelf mixed in with non-alcoholic versions.
Jesus, as someone allergic* to alcohol, that's TERRIFYING!
*It's more complicated than "allergic", that's just the easiest way to comprehend it.
It's in a High Noon box and the other three flavors are in High Noon cans. It's one flavor packaged in the wrong can.
You aren't going to buy an energy drink and get alcohol. If somebody buys alcohol, they may find something inside that doesn't look like alcohol.
Disappointing.
Surprise we’ve added peanut dust to the mix!
For that extra salty flavor

Also happy cake day
Asian? Like the skin thing you have to take a pill for?
Common in Asians. My liver lacks the enzymes to process alcohol correctly. So if I drink one beer, I'll projectile vomit for 3 days. :(
Normal person:
Alcohol -> Liver
Alcohol -> Enzymes -> Acetaldehyde (cousin to formaldehyde)
Acetaldehyde -> More Enzymes -> Sugar and Water
Me:
Alcohol -> Liver
Alcohol -> Enzymes -> Acetaldehyde (cousin to formaldehyde)
Acetaldehyde -> Projectile Vomiting
…some of its vodka seltzers were accidentally labeled as Celsius energy drinks.
😍
“Accidentally”.
Uh-huh. And I bet they’ve had a massive bump in sales from this “accident”, as underage people swarm vendors to see if they could score one of these “accidental” cans.
I wonder if anyone unintentionally drove drunk from this. An energy drink is exactly what someone trying to be more alert would drink before driving.
I would doubt it. It's only 4.5% and most don't pound down energy drinks. There's also a taste difference.
