Cizzle Brands Partners with NHL MVP Nathan MacKinnon and USA Hockey to Launch Two New Iconic Flavours of CWENCH Hydration™; Announces Results of Annual General Meeting

The new flavours – Golden Berry and Miracle On Ice™ -- deliver bold taste and innovation inspired by elite performance and historic moments in sports.

TORONTO--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Cizzle Brands Corporation (Cboe Canada: CZZL) (OTCQB: CZZLF) (Frankfurt: 8YF) (the “Company” or “Cizzle”), the sports nutrition company elevating the game in health and wellness, today announced the launch of two new flavours of its flagship product, CWENCH Hydration™ — Golden Berry and Miracle On Ice™. The new SKUs bring fresh, elevated flavour profiles to CWENCH’s portfolio, each designed to hydrate athletes and fans during every high-intensity moment.

Miracle On Ice™ is a new flavour created in collaboration with USA Hockey pursuant to the partnership between Cizzle and USA Hockey announced in early 2025. The flavour was inspired by the US hockey team’s legendary 1980 victory over the Soviet Union in Lake Placid, New York — a moment that transcended sport and became a symbol of belief, resilience, and the power of the underdog.

The flavour of Miracle on Ice™ delivers a bold, red-white-and-blue burst of cherry, citrus, and blue raspberry, reminiscent of a classic rocket ice pop — fast, refreshing, and built for clutch moments. The taste is designed to capture the spirit of USA Hockey’s past while energizing the next generation of players, fans, and competitors chasing their own miracle moments.

Alongside Miracle On Ice™, Cizzle has also launched a new limited-time offering (LTO) flavour, Golden Berry, developed in collaboration with NHL superstar Nathan MacKinnon. The name and flavour of Golden Berry was chosen to pay homage to MacKinnon's relentless pursuit of greatness and to help inspire Canadians in Milan-Cortina. Golden Berry offers a bold, refreshing sweet-tart taste built for high performance — designed to keep athletes hydrated through training, competition, and the biggest moments.

“Golden Berry and Miracle On Ice™ represent our commitment to innovation and athlete-centered product experiences,” said John Celenza, Founder, Chairman, and Chief Executive Officer of Cizzle Brands. “With Golden Berry, we teamed up with Nathan because his work ethic and dedication define championship mentality. Miracle On Ice™ is a tribute to a defining moment in sports history and to the athletes and fans chasing their next breakthrough. These flavours aren’t just about great taste — they’re about the mindset and grit it takes to win.”

The new flavours join CWENCH’s expanding distribution across North American grocery, convenience, and specialty channels, complementing the brand’s ongoing momentum and growing footprint in key retail accounts. CWENCH Hydration™ continues to be recognized for its performance-oriented formulation, made with 6+ electrolytes, zero sugar, and an athlete-centric focus, available in thousands of stores nationwide.
