It's Here: Pique's New Caffeine-Free Afternoon Energy
I quit my afternoon coffee. Not because I wanted to — because I found something better.
You know that wall you hit every day around 2–3 PM? I used to just accept it as the cost of doing anything. Another coffee, a quick spike, then the crash — and somehow I'd still feel dehydrated by dinner.
Then I tried X·E Fountain, Pique's brand-new electrolyte energy drink, and I genuinely wasn't ready for how good "no crash" could feel.
No caffeine jitters. No 4 PM slump. Just clean, steady energy that actually hydrates me instead of draining me. It's built with a premium Vitamin B Complex for natural cellular energy, Magnesium Malate + Taurate for real focus, and a full electrolyte blend that makes it feel like a treat, not a chore.
The cucumber-celery-lime flavor is so crisp and refreshing — it's basically stolen my afternoon coffee slot completely.
Is Massachusetts going too far with its new kratom crackdown? 🎙️🌿
From GBH Boston’s Morning Edition
Featuring PSA Founder Jack Gorsline
Friday August 28, 2026
This morning, PSA founder Jack Gorsline joined Tori Bedford of GBH Boston’s Morning Edition to unpack the state's controversial move to classify kratom as a Schedule I drug — putting the natural leaf in the exact same legal category as heroin.
During the interview, Gorsline highlighted the growing friction between sweeping state criminalization and public health evidence: "Advocates aren’t necessarily asking for a free-for-all. They’re arguing that the state is using a sledgehammer here where a scalpel was needed —criminalizing the natural leaf rather than regulating these potent synthetics and other products."
While the state pushes ahead with prohibition, Gorsline points out that a Schedule I designation ignores kratom's active use by many for treating severe anxiety and substance use disorder. It also directly contradicts guidance from major health organizations like the American Medical Association (AMA), World Health Organization (WHO), and The United Nations, which all advocate for the decriminalization and regulation of drugs for personal possession.
