PepsiCo has recalled roughly 122,000 cases of Gatorade sold across the U.S. because the product contains undeclared dyes, the Food and Drug Administration said in a notice.

The recall affects cases with 28-ounce bottles of Gatorade Lemon Lime, Gatorade Lemon Lime Zero, Gatorade Orange and Gatorade Orange Zero that were sold in 37 states. The FDA said the beverages contain undeclared Yellow No. 6 and/or Yellow No. 5, artificial dyes that affect the product’s color.

PepsiCo initiated the recall on Sept. 25. On Oct. 2, the FDA updated the recall to Class II, which means that exposure to the product “may cause temporary or medically reversible adverse health consequences,” according to the regulatory agency.

The cases of Gatorade were sold in Alaska, Alabama, Arkansas, Arizona, California, Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Hawaii, Iowa, Idaho, Illinois, Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, Mississippi, North Carolina, North Dakota, Nebraska, New Jersey, New Mexico, Nevada, New York, Ohio, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, Washington and Wisconsin.

The recall number is H-0009-2027.

Coca-Cola will launch two new flavors of its standard beverage in 2027 – Coca-Cola Cherry Lime and Coca-Cola Strawberry Float.

The Cherry Lime flavor will launch in February 2027 and blends the “classic cherry flavor consumers know with a bright lime twist,” according to the company. Strawberry Float will launch in the summer of 2027, the company told USA TODAY, and blends Coca-Cola’s standard flavor with strawberry and creamy vanilla notes. Both flavors will be available in both full sugar and zero sugar varieties.

Additionally, the company is conducting a “regional test-and-learn” for prebiotic versions of Coca-Cola Zero Sugar, Sprite Zero Sugar and Fresca. Each beverage contains six grams of prebiotic fiber and zero sugar, according to the company.

The prebiotic sodas will be available in a limited basis across parts of New York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania beginning in late October 2026.

What other Coca-Cola brands are getting new flavors?

The company told USA TODAY Powerade is adding Watermelon and Lemon Lime Zero Sugar to its flavor lineup in January 2027 while Mr. Pibb is adding a limited-time flavor, Mr. Pibb Black-Current, in spring 2027. The flavor is described by the company as a “berry-forward” offering featuring blackberry and black currant flavors and 54 mh of caffeine.
