PepsiCo has initiated a voluntary product recall on select lots of Starbucks Tripleshot Energy Vanilla over concerns the beverages may contain metal fragments. 

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration says the recall affects drinks distributed to retail stores in seven states – Arkansas, Arizona, Florida, Illinois, Indiana, Oklahoma and Texas. 

The recall affects over 200 cases of the 15-ounce, 12 bottles per case, packages with a best-by date of March 20, 2023. 

A PepsiCo statement to Fox Business stated the product is sold at grocery retailers and not at Starbucks locations. There are no reported adverse reactions or illnesses related to this product.
