Dr. Pepper Snapple Group introduced the Venom Energy brand in 2008. Venom Energy launched in June 2008 with Black Mamba and Mojave Rattler. The energy blend contains caffeine, l-carnitine, guarana, ginseng and taurine – the hard-core ingredients that consumers are looking for in their energy drink.
Venom Energy was also the first energy drink to introduce the resealable aluminum bottle, allowing energy fans to enjoy the beverage on their own terms. In 2009, Venom Energy introduced fruit punch and mango flavors called Death Adder and Killer Taipan, respectively.
