Alani Nu Voodoo Vanilla: Where to Buy, Price and What It Is
Update log (1)
- — Read on the afternoon of launch day. Both Voodoo Vanilla and Witch's Brew were showing a back-in-stock signup on alaninu.com rather than an add-to-cart button; that can change without notice on a restock, so check the product page itself.
- It is not a regular Alani energy drink. Voodoo Vanilla is the brand’s first Energy Elixir — a mini can with 65mg of caffeine, against 200mg in a standard Alani can. If you buy it expecting the usual hit, you are getting less than a third of it.
- The Alani Nu site price is $24.99 for a 12 pack, five dollars below the $29.99 that Witch’s Brew and the standard flavours cost. The elixir cans are smaller, so the lower price is not a discount.
- It sold out on Alani’s own site within hours. The fall range went live at noon ET on 12 August; by mid-afternoon both Voodoo Vanilla and Witch’s Brew showed ’notify me’ instead of an add-to-cart button. Alani named Amazon and The Vitamin Shoppe as the other two launch retailers.
- Alani prints a caffeine warning on the product page itself, because it is selling the drink as a mixer. It suggests pairing it with Witch’s Brew or Ruby Apple, then says to keep total daily caffeine under 400mg. A 65mg elixir plus a 200mg can is 265mg before anything else you drink.
Voodoo Vanilla costs $24.99 for a 12 pack on Alani Nu’s site — and it sold out there within hours of launching. The fall range went live at noon ET on 12 August 2026; by mid-afternoon the page had a “notify me” button where the cart button should be.
Before you go hunting for it elsewhere, one thing worth knowing: this is not a normal Alani energy drink. It is the brand’s first “Energy Elixir”, it comes in a mini can, and it has 65mg of caffeine rather than the usual 200mg.
What is Alani Nu Voodoo Vanilla?
A mini energy elixir with whipped cream and marshmallow flavour — Alani’s first product in that format. Alani describes it as “our first-ever Alani energy elixir”, designed to work on its own or mixed into another drink.
| Detail | Voodoo Vanilla |
|---|---|
| Format | Mini energy elixir |
| Caffeine | 65mg |
| Sugar | 0g |
| Pack | 12 |
| Price | $24.99 |
It is gluten free, vegan and carries B vitamins, in line with the rest of the range.
The flavour brief is whipped cream and marshmallow. Alani’s own suggestion is to pair it with Witch’s Brew or Ruby Apple for what it calls “a creamy caramel apple twist” — which tells you the elixir is being sold at least partly as a mixer rather than a standalone can.
How much caffeine is in Voodoo Vanilla?
65mg — under a third of what a standard Alani can contains. This is the detail most likely to catch people out, so it is worth putting side by side.
| Product | Caffeine | Price, 12 pack |
|---|---|---|
| Voodoo Vanilla | 65mg | $24.99 |
| Witch’s Brew | 200mg | $29.99 |
Both figures are from Alani’s own product pages, checked the same afternoon.
Alani puts a caffeine ceiling on the page itself, which is unusual enough to quote directly: when mixing with Alani Energy or other caffeinated beverages, it says to ensure total daily caffeine intake does not exceed 400mg. Take its own pairing suggestion literally — one elixir plus one Witch’s Brew — and you are at 265mg before anything else in your day.
How much does Voodoo Vanilla cost?
$24.99 for 12 on Alani’s site, five dollars less than the standard flavours. Witch’s Brew, Cotton Candy, Strawberry Sunrise and Sherbet Swirl are all $29.99 for a 12 pack.
That five dollars is not a discount. The elixir comes in a mini can and the $29.99 flavours do not, so you are paying less because you are getting less liquid, not because the elixir is better value per sip. How much less, we are not going to tell you: Alani does not publish a can volume for either format on its own product pages, and a per-ounce figure built on a number the brand has not stated would look precise without being verified.
Where can you buy Alani Nu Voodoo Vanilla?
Alani named three launch retailers: its own site, Amazon and The Vitamin Shoppe. As of launch afternoon, the first of those was out.
| Retailer | Status when checked |
|---|---|
| AlaniNu.com | Sold out, notify me |
| Amazon | Named at launch |
| The Vitamin Shoppe | Named at launch |
AlaniNu.com showed the back-in-stock signup rather than an add-to-cart button for both Voodoo Vanilla and Witch’s Brew. The site also carries a store locator for finding Alani stockists nearby, which is the route worth trying if the online listings are gone.
The Vitamin Shoppe has a listing for it, but we could not read the page from this connection — it refused a plain request and rendered empty in a browser — so this article carries no price or stock state from it.
Amazon is named by Alani as a launch retailer. No Amazon price appears here either, for a different reason: this connection is served a non-US currency by Amazon, and converting it would produce a made-up number wearing a dollar sign.
If you want it, the honest advice is to set the notify-me alert on Alani’s own page and check the two other retailers directly, because a limited-edition drop that cleared the brand’s own store in an afternoon is not going to sit on shelves.
Is Voodoo Vanilla limited edition?
Yes — it is part of Alani’s fall range, sold while supplies last. The same drop brought back Witch’s Brew, the green apple and caramel flavour that returns seasonally, and introduced Ruby Apple alongside it.
Witch’s Brew has 2,284 reviews on Alani’s site; Voodoo Vanilla has none, which is what a launch-day product looks like. If you are deciding between them, that asymmetry is worth knowing: one is a returning favourite with a track record, the other is a new format nobody has reviewed yet.
Bottom line
$24.99 for 12, 65mg of caffeine, whipped cream and marshmallow, and gone from Alani’s own site in an afternoon.
The single most useful thing to take away is that it is not a swap for your usual can. At 65mg it is a third of the caffeine, in a smaller can, designed partly to be poured into something else — and Alani’s own page tells you to watch the total if you do that.
For another drink that spends most of its life sold out, our guide to tracking down Baja Blast covers the same problem from the other end.

How we verified this
The price, the caffeine figure and the sold-out status all come from Alani Nu’s own product pages, read on launch afternoon. The Voodoo Vanilla page lists it as “mini energy elixir”, 12 pack, $24.99, with 65mg caffeine and 0g sugar, and shows a “sign up to be notified when it’s back in stock” prompt in place of an add-to-cart button. The Witch’s Brew page, checked for comparison, lists $29.99 and 200mg and is in the same state.
Prices were served in US dollars with no currency substitution, checked explicitly on both pages — a real risk on this connection, which has been served other currencies by several retailers.
🔴 The can size is not confirmed by Alani. Retailer listings describe Voodoo Vanilla as an 8.4 fl oz can, and coverage repeats that figure, but Alani’s own product page states only “mini” — no volume appears on it. So this article says only that the elixir cans are smaller than the standard ones, which is what “mini” denotes, and prints no volume for either format — Alani publishes neither on the pages we read. That also rules out a per-ounce comparison: both denominators would be unverified.
The two other retailers are named because Alani named them, not because we priced them. Launch coverage lists AlaniNu.com, Amazon and The Vitamin Shoppe. The Vitamin Shoppe product page returned HTTP 403 to a command-line request and rendered empty in a browser from this connection, so no price or stock state from it appears here. Amazon is excluded entirely: this connection is served non-US currency by it, and a converted figure would be a fabrication with a dollar sign on it.
The launch time is from launch coverage, not from Alani’s own site. The noon ET launch on 12 August is reported by outlets covering the range; Alani’s pages carry no timestamp. What is first-party is the state of those pages when we read them, which is what the article describes.
The caffeine warning is quoted from the product page, not paraphrased from health guidance. Alani’s own line is that when mixing with Alani Energy or other caffeinated beverages, total daily caffeine intake should not exceed 400mg. This article repeats that as the brand’s instruction and does not add advice of its own.
