New York CNN —Coca Cola-owned BodyArmor is unleashing its newest beverage as part of its years-long effort to overthrow Pepsi’s Gatorade from its position as the top-selling sports drink brand.
Rolling out to retailers this month is BodyArmor Zero Sugar, a sugar-free version of its popular flavored sports drink, taking aim at Gatorade’s G Zero beverages.
“We know that there is a consumer that looks specifically for zero sugar, and until now, BodyArmor didn’t have a product to play with there.”BodyArmor Zero Sugar comes in four flavors, including fruit punch, lemon lime, orange and cherry lime.

Research firm Euromonitor reports that Gatorade commanded 63.5% of US sports drink marketshare in 2023, compared to BodyArmor’s 12% and 14.3% for its sister brand Powerade.
