It may be the WNBA offseason, but Caitlin Clark continues to stay active off the court. The Indiana Fever guard has teamed up with Gatorade to celebrate the return of her favorite flavor, Rain Berry. The drink is making a comeback as part of the brand’s new lower-sugar lineup, which is scheduled for a nationwide release in March.
Clark first hinted at the flavor’s return with an Instagram post from what appeared to be a workout session. In the photo, she held a bottle labeled “Not for retail sale,” featuring Rain Berry branding along with the phrase “Caitlin’s Favorite Flavor” and her image in a Fever uniform. She captioned it enthusiastically, calling it the greatest flavor ever made — a fitting reveal on Valentine’s Day, a subtle nod to something she clearly loves.
The official announcement came in the form of a surprise. Tyrese Haliburton, star guard for the Indiana Pacers, showed up during Clark’s photo shoot to unveil the returning flavor. In a video shared by Gatorade, Haliburton encouraged her to take the first sip and see if it still matched her memory. Clark’s reaction was immediate and positive, saying it tasted even better than she remembered. The moment highlighted the growing friendship between the two athletes, who share Iowa roots and now serve as cornerstone players for their respective Indianapolis franchises.
To mark the relaunch, Gatorade is rolling out 2,200 limited-edition Rain Berry bottles featuring Clark’s image on the label. Each bottle is priced at $22, a tribute to her No. 22 jersey and her January 22 birthday. The special edition bottles will be available online starting February 19, ahead of the broader product launch in March. The collaboration not only reconnects Clark with a longtime favorite but also brings together two of the city’s brightest basketball stars in a campaign that blends personality, nostalgia, and brand power.
