Carl’s Jr., Monster Energy team up on energy drink infusions

Carl's Jr. is partnering with Monster Energy to introduce Star Energy, a limited-time lineup of Monster Zero Ultra-infused beverages.

The lineup features three 24-ounce flavor combinations, each available in original and "Dirty" variations topped with creamy cold foam, according to a press release. Options include Berry Breeze, made with Monster Zero Ultra and Powerade; Strawberry Splash, blending Monster Zero Ultra with Sprite and strawberry syrup; and Orange Blast, combining Monster Zero Ultra with Fanta Orange. Guests also can purchase 12-ounce cans of Monster Energy Zero Ultra at participating locations.

"By pairing two iconic brands with incredibly passionate fan bases, we're able to create something truly distinctive and delicious for our guests," Burge Diemer, chief marketing officer for Carl's Jr., said in the release.

To celebrate the launch, the brands will bring Star Energy samples and Carl's Jr. signature burgers to the Rose Bowl tailgate Nov. 28, ahead of a highly anticipated West Coast rivalry game.
