President Donald Trump's eldest granddaughter Kai Trump, 19, and the president's youngest son, Barron Trump, 20, have each launched their own energy drinks this summer.
Kai debuted a collaboration with Accelerator Active Energy drinks on June 2, debuting her signature Blue Raz Slush flavor. Barron, meanwhile, is one of the forces behind a new Florida-based yerba mate company, SOLLOS, which recently rolled out its first drink: a Pineapple + Coconut 12-pack of cans.
Barron, the president's only child with first lady Melania Trump and a college student attending New York University, helped start the company with "a group of close friends ages 19-23" from South Florida, according to SOLLOS' website. The company's debut 12-pack of organic Brazilian yerba mate, an herbal tea with caffeine, retails for $39.

Kai, Donald Trump Jr.'s eldest daughter with ex-wife Vanessa Trump and a competitive golfer, launched her new flavor that's inspired by a "childhood love of blue raspberry movie theater slushies," according to a release from Accelerator Active Energy.
The drinks are the young Trumps' latest foray into the family business of parlaying their name and wealth into new branding opportunities as the president serves out his second term.
"We tested so many different versions to make sure the flavor felt authentic to my tastes and something I'd genuinely want to drink every day," Kai said in a press release. "Between training, golf, travel, and everything else in my schedule, I'm always looking for products that help me stay energized and focused, and I love that Accelerator fits so naturally into my routine."

The blue raspberry-flavored drink contains "100% natural caffeine from coffee bean and green tea, plant-based thermogenics, and cognitive boosters," according to Accelerator.
She first partnered with the brand in 2025, forging a sponsorship deal with a company that counts NFL star and Taylor Swift's fiancé Travis Kelce, gymnast Livvy Dunne, and Spanish tennis player Paula Badosa among its partners.

Last year, during an appearance on Fox & Friends, Kai said she was drawn to the brand because its energy drinks lack sugar, unlike other brands.
"I don't eat a lot of sugar at all just because I kind of get like a little jittery and then I crash. And with Accelerator, there's no sugar," the teenager said. "And I don't really get like that feeling with energy drinks where you drink it and then like two hours later, you just feel like you're about to fall asleep."
Her drink comes in a 12-pack of 12-ounce cans, each with zero calories and 200 milligrams of caffeine.
She added in the Fox News interview that while sometimes she does want to "put down the clubs" and lead a more typical teenage life, her "parents raised me never to give up." She also noted that her grandfather, a longtime golfer who hits the links frequently as president, is "a really big influence on my life."
"He really just taught me to keep on fighting and just keep on practicing. and what not, and I've loved playing golf in my whole life," Kai said in the July 2025 interview. "And it's something that we share a special bond together."

Kai attended a Florida golf tournament with her mother, Vanessa, in March to cheer on her boyfriend, Tiger Woods, who has offered her his advice on the sport after a long career at the top of the game.
And on Monday, she attended the NBA Finals Game 3 between the New York Knicks and the San Antonio Spurs in New York with President Trump.
She is slated to enroll in the University of Miami in the fall, where she will compete with the college's Division I golf team.
