Do I need FDA approval to sell a private label energy drink?

The FDA does not pre-approve beverages, but your product must comply with food or dietary supplement labeling rules, including an accurate nutrition or supplement facts panel, allergen statements, and caffeine disclosure. A reputable co-packer handles compliant panels and third-party testing. AJ Cosmo Labs lists co-packers with their food-safety certifications visible so you can confirm compliance before committing.
