"The can was designed to differentiate our healthy antioxidant-based products from other new-age beverages as well as traditional caffeine and sugar-laden energy drinks," says Lamb. "The design was created to demonstrate the scientific heritage and potency of our product. The hexagons represent molecules," Lamb adds.
