MillerCoors to Unplug Sparks In a major victory for public health and safety, MillerCoors has agreed to a landmark settlement with 13 state attorneys general and the city attorney of San Francisco, who were investigating the company over its alcoholic energy drink, Sparks. MillerCoors will stop producing and selling caffeinated beverages such as Sparks, a popular orange-flavored alcopop made with stimulants. MillerCoors also agreed to end misleading and youth-oriented marketing tactics. Combining caffeine with alcohol has been linked to various public-health risks, especially among underage drinkers. Last year, Marin Institute released the report, Alcohol, Energy Drinks, and Youth: A Dangerous Mix. |
