Gatorade Fast Twitch is the brand's first caffeinated drink, delivering about 200 mg of caffeine in a 12 oz bottle. Built for athletes, it pairs that strong dose with electrolytes and zero sugar.

Will Gatorade Fast Twitch affect your sleep?
At 200 mg, Fast Twitch needs around ten hours to fall under 50 mg, so a midday bottle can still be active at bedtime. It looks like a sports drink but carries energy-drink-level caffeine.
Heads up
At 200 mg, a second Gatorade Fast Twitch in a day pushes you toward the FDA’s 400 mg ceiling — and that’s before any coffee or tea. Log everything in the calculator to see your real daily total.
