Panera Bread faces second wrongful death lawsuit over Charged Lemonade

Panera is facing another wrongful death lawsuit after a customer allegedly died from consuming the chain's caffeinated lemonade. The lawsuit claims that the beverage should have been marketed as an energy drink due to its high caffeine and sugar content. The complaint also argues that the drink is dangerous because its caffeine content is not strictly controlled as it is mixed on the premises by employees. This lawsuit follows a similar case filed earlier this year by the parents of a woman who died after drinking Panera's charged lemonade. Panera denies any responsibility and states that the lawsuit is without merit.
