Panera discontinues Charged Sips, the drinks at the center of several wrongful death lawsuits

View descriptionShare

Panera will stop selling its caffeinated Charged Sips drinks.

The family of Penn student Sarah Katz said she died after drinking a Charged Lemonade. Katz had a heart condition. Her family sued Panera, saying the company did not properly warn customers about its ingredients.

The fruit-flavored beverages contain between 155 and 302 milligrams of caffeine, while a typical cup of 8-ounce coffee has about 95 milligrams of caffeine.

After Katz's death, Panera posted warnings in stores and online telling customers to "consume in moderation."
