Capri Sun takes a swing at an eclipse with limited 'Moon Punch' drink
Capri Sun now shares another thing in common with NASA.
The juice brand and space agency are already using the same foil for their drink packages. Now both are headed for the moon.
Capri Sun is launching "Moon Punch," a limited-edition "cosmically cherry-flavored juice" that will come in the brand's first-ever glow-in-the-dark pouch. Rolling out across the United States later this month, Moon Punch will come in eight different design pouches, each featuring one of the phases of the moon.
The release is timed to coincide with the total lunar eclipse that will be visible from most of North America overnight tonight (Wednesday to Thursday, March 13-14). Also known as a "Blood Moon" given its reddish hue, a total lunar eclipse occurs when the sun, Earth and moon align and the entire moon moves within the darkest part of Earth's shadow.

"Whether you grew up drinking from the iconic pouch or are one of the millions of kids who name Capri Sun as their favorite drink, we strive to create moments of fun and discovery, helping to unleash peak kid energy with every poke of the straw," said Jessica Barker, senior brand manager for brand communications at Capri Sun, in a statement. "Playing off the iconic brand name, we're looking from the sun to the moon for the very first time!"
"Moon Punch is here, and it's glowing," said Barker.
For a chance to get one of the first pouches, open your phone's camera through the Snapchat app, take a photo of the moon and then follow the resulting link for an opportunity to receive a free carton of Moon Punch and a flashlight "to help light up the night sky."
Otherwise, Moon Punch will be available for a limited time from Amazon, Walmart, Target and Kroger, among other retailers.
Though unrelated to the drink, NASA is also glowing with excitement about the moon as its Artemis program draws closer to returning astronauts to Earth's nearest neighbor. Earlier this month, two of the agency's commercial partners landed science experiments on the moon, with more to follow, and the Artemis 2 crew is entering their final year of training before becoming the first astronauts to fly around the moon since the end of the Apollo program more than 50 years ago.
When Reid Wiseman, Victor Glover, Christina Koch and Jeremy Hansen lift off on the Artemis 2 mission (currently targeted for 2026), their drinks will be in the form of dehydrated juices, tea and coffee packaged in the same type of foil as used by Capri Sun for its pouches.

NASA adopted the foil laminate pouch in the early 1990s as space shuttle mission durations grew longer, requiring more compact food packaging. Today, the drink pouch used aboard the International Space Station is a longer version of a Capri Sun package, which is equipped with an added septum to fill the pouch with water. (The same opening is used to insert a straw.)
Since 2010, the European Space Agency has also used a pouch specially designed by Capri Sun to fly its astronauts' drinks.
According to the Capri Sun announcement, the Moon Punch collectible pouches were designed to not only engage customers but also emphasize the brand's ongoing commitment to the format, "keeping the iconic offering at the forefront for fans of all ages."

Ridge (Thorsten Kaye) drives a convertible to the hotel, where a crowd has gathered to greet them. Nick (Jack Wagner) meets up with his boat manager, who promises that the boat will be ready for his 'special plans' the following day. Taylor (Rebecca Budig) gets a text from Ridge saying they've arrived. Donna (Jennifer Gareis) says Italy is one of her favorite places to be. But she misses her Honeybear, and Taylor misses Ridge, too. Finn (Tanner Novlan) sees Li (Naomi Matsuda) walking by his office, and she has a box with her. She tells him she's taking a leave of absence for a while. Finn reminds her that she loves working, so he wants to know what's really going on. Li says that everything that happened with Luna took a toll, and she needs some time. Donna and Taylor study pictures of their loved ones and wish they were there. Taylor says they'll be there on the next trip when it's not all about business. Taylor wonders if Nick will be crashing the party, and Donna admits she hasn't heard Nick's name in a long time. Taylor says he's taking over Marone Industries, taking over the whole fleet. They marvel at how he washed up on shore and changed their lives. They both remember the Shady Marlin, the boat where Nick and Brooke were married. Donna wonders if they could have a future again. She doesn't know how her sister is feeling about him. While she wants her sister to be happy, she knows Ridge is the only man who can make her happy. 'Sorry,' she adds. At the hotel, Brooke is welcomed to the town in front of excited onlookers. At the dock, Nick tells his boat manager that he has a special date planned. His manager says that if you kiss your partner while going under the rocks, your love will last forever. 'That's the plan,' Nick agrees. There's a rooftop reception for the Forrester team while they wait for their room. 'Let the magic of Italy begin,' Eric says. Finn asks if Li needs help moving out of her office, and he wonders why she didn't mention it. Is she unhappy at the hospital? Li says it's time to step away for a bit, then she pivots to ask about Steffy taking some time away, too. 'At least it's only temporary,' she says. Finn knows Steffy will be home, after Luna almost made it so that he'd never see her again. Li frowns. Donna marvels that Nick could be in Naples at the same time, and she asks Taylor if she's sure he'll be there. Taylor says Brooke keeps forgetting that Ridge is engaged, which leads Donna to see that Taylor is hoping Nick shows up to keep Brooke busy and away from Ridge. There's a problem with the boat, which means Nick is having trouble getting his plans in motion. He looks up and sees Brooke on the rooftop. 'Let the fun begin,' he says. Eric addresses the crowd, telling everyone that they're going to have a wonderful time in Naples. Finn asks how long Li will be away and whether she'll be in town. Li hasn't figured it all out. She's focused on getting some rest and reading a book. Finn can't believe she's taking a vacation on a whim, to which Li says it's more than time. She grabs her things and leaves, adding there's something she needs to do that she should have done a long time ago. Donna says Brooke has more class than Taylor gives her credit for. Donna reminds her that Ridge and Nick don't get along at all, but she has to admit that Nick is 'quite the romantic.' Taylor hopes he pulls out all the stops, and she knows they would make a great couple. Donna jokes that Taylor bought the plane ticket for Nick herself. Ridge is looking out over the water when he sees a Marone boat. He joins Brooke, who is talking to some fans about their inspiration. They take a picture together, then Ridge excuses himself. Eric goes over the details of his plan for Capri with his intern. Brooke is looking at the marina when Nick walks up. 'Ciao, bella!' he says. Li walks into her apartment, which is full of medical supplies. The box she was carrying was also full of supplies. She pulls a curtain and there's an IV stand, which she adjusts. Then she looks at her patient. It's Luna (Lisa Yamada), only now she's blonde. Li looks concerned. Taylor explains that Nick came to her for advice on Brooke. It shouldn't be that confusing, given that Taylor is wearing an engagement ring. She truly wants what's best for Brooke, which Donna points out is a relationship with Nick, not Ridge. 'Ridge has moved on,' Taylor says, adding that they're planning their wedding. She suggests that Donna get on board the Nick-Brooke reunion, but Donna says that Nick isn't Brooke's first choice. Taylor says if Brooke wants happiness, it has to be with Nick. Brooke is thrilled to see Nick and says she might be able to squeeze him in. He's not taking no for an answer. Eric watches as Nick kisses Brooke, and they smile at each other with Italy in the background. The Bold and the Beautiful airs weekdays on CBS and the following day on Paramount Plus.

She doesn't know why she came to Italy with him when they have so many beautiful memories together. Eric (John McCook) tells Nick (Jack Wagner) that the post-fashion show luncheon is a private event. Nick jokes that it was hard to find, but he promises not to stay long. Still, Eric wants to know what he wants. Electra (Laneya Grace) imagines what it would have been like for them to go to Italy. Will (Crew Morrow) agrees. They look at pictures of Brooke on the runway and Will insists that Electra should be there representing the company. Sheila (Kimberlin Brown) begs Li (Naomi Matsuda) to listen to her. She knows Luna (Lisa Yamada) made mistakes but she's still Finn's daughter and their granddaughter. She wants to know where she can go to say goodbye. Li's face shifts as she hears Sheila's plea. Somewhere, Luna is still sleeping in the hospital bed. Electra could never be a model, she says, but Will says she designs jewelry that's as beautiful as she is. Will gets a text, relieved it will never be Luna bothering them ever again. Sheila insists she's not the enemy. She tried to help Luna when no one else was there for her. She just wants to mourn her. Li says there's nothing she can do. Brooke says it's too hard being in Italy where people are constantly asking for pictures of her and Ridge together. She's just going to run off with Nick and forget she ever met Ridge. Ridge, for his part, looks stunned. Will knew Luna was dangerous but had no idea how 'unhinged' she was. Electra points out that Luna pulled a gun on him, and he remembers how Electra stood up for him all by herself. She says he could have been shot like his brother. Will says he never would have let Luna hurt her. Electra says everything is ok, and 'Luna is gone forever.' Li says no one asked Sheila to do more for Luna, but Sheila was Luna's grandmother and everyone turned against her. She urged Luna to make a better life for herself, and she's mourning her. Li's food arrives but Li leaves without her food, having lost her appetite. Deacon (Sean Kanan) arrives as Li walks out and asks Sheila if she said anything about Luna. Sheila is deep in thought. Eric knows Nick is there for Brooke, but Nick points out that Ridge and Taylor are living in his house while he brought Ridge and Brooke to Italy to get them back together. Ridge says everything will be all right. Brooke says Nick wants to sweep her off her feet. Ridge wants her too, and he looks at her with so much passion and desire… the way Ridge used to look at her. Electra gets chills talking about Luna, knowing she's dead. Will calls it karma. Electra can't believe Luna was related to someone as loving as Finn. How did his long lost daughter become so different? Will is glad Luna is gone, out of their lives for good. 'I think it's ok to feel good about that.' Deacon asks if Sheila got into a fight with Li. Sheila says Li wouldn't answer her questions and she can't let it go. Deacon asks what happened, and Sheila says she was there with Luna when Li wasn't. Deacon reminds Sheila that she almost died and he almost lost his wife. He points out that everyone grieves in a different way. All Sheila wanted was to see Luna and say goodbye, and then Li got 'huffy.' Deacon wonders if Li resents how things were between Sheila and Luna. Sheila tells Deacon that she can't put her finger on it, 'but something is very off with Li.' Li checks Luna's vitals; there's no change. She tells the sleeping young woman that she used to sit with her while she was sleeping and she can see that innocent little girl now. How can someone so innocent back then cause so much pain? 'Open your eyes, Luna,' she says. Nick knows Eric arranged the whole trip to get Brooke and Ridge together. Eric feels bad that Taylor is in the middle of it all, but Brooke belongs with Ridge. Nick says it's sad that Eric thinks he's helping Brooke when he doesn't see the truth. Eric walks away, but not before telling him to leave Brooke alone. Brooke and Ridge are on the dock. Brooke tells Ridge that she can't be in that place with him. It's causing her so much pain. Nick walks up and asks Ridge how Brooke could look so beautiful but be so miserable. Ridge isn't happy to see him at all. Deacon says this is all a very weird situation. Luna is Sheila and Li's granddaughter but she's also a violent criminal. Deacon wonders if Li is relieved that Luna is gone, but Sheila doesn't understand why Li is keeping her in the dark. She didn't know Luna long, but they had a connection and she cared for her. She knows Deacon will never forgive Luna for killing their friends, but Sheila sees her good side and it reminds her of Finn. Sheila thinks back to the fond memories she has of Luna and the times when they laughed together. 'Now I'm never going to hear her laugh again,' she says. Li begs Luna to keep fighting. She knows Luna never had a chance, having been raised by Poppy and neglected. 'No wonder you spun out of control,' she remarks. She apologizes for not being more involved in Luna's life but she's there now and she won't let Luna die. Nick says they're in the middle of paradise and it should be about love and joy. Ridge tells him they're fine and he can leave, but Nick looks at Brooke and asks what she wants. He says this is her chance to 'jump off the merry-go-round' with Ridge and come with him instead. Nick extends his hand, and Ridge watches as Brooke takes it and they walk away. The Bold and the Beautiful airs weekdays on CBS and the following day on Paramount Plus.

The Bold and the Beautiful recap for August 5: Brooke overboard!
When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. Grace comes clean as Ridge takes desperate measures in The Bold and the Beautiful recap for August 5, 2025.

Finn (Tanner Novlan) refuses to let Grace (Cassandra Creech) leave. He has serious questions about Liam's treatment and he wants answers. Liam (Scott Clifton) tells Hope (Annika Noelle) that he's been saying Dr. Buckingham's name over and over again, and now it has two meanings. There's Grace, who saved his life, but the other Buckingham took their daughter and tormented them. Grace says she doesn't know why Finn is asking about the money. She insists that the money was needed for a private surgical suite and all of the costs. Grace warned Bill that it would be expensive. Finn agrees, but he asks if it was all necessary. Ridge is on the move, looking for Brooke. She's on the boat having lunch with Nick, praising how he's always 'full of surprises.' Liam calls 'the tale of two Buckinghams' crazy. One ripped their lives apart, and Hope says the other one put their lives back together. She calls it a miracle. Liam says it's his second favorite miracle, after getting Beth back. Hope says no one should have to go through that kind of pain. Especially not because of Reese's gambling debts. Grace insists that the surgery was necessary to save Liam's life. Finn points out that he never saw the neuro team in Liam's room, and all of the data came through Grace, not the team. She doesn't understand why he's asking questions, but he points out that he saw the MRI results she sent to Bill, and there are holes in the story, especially after finding out it cost a million dollars. He wonders if Liam ever had brain cancer at all. Brooke and Liam enjoy their food, all presented by a personal chef. Ridge is at the docks, and he overhears some workers talking about Nick. Nick's assistant says they have been working on Nick's boat, but the steering is 'no good,' so Ridge asks where the boat is and races off to find it. Liam and Hope recall their harrowing experience when Beth was born and Reese stole their daughter, leading them to think she didn't make it. But now his ex-wife is the one who saved Liam's life. Liam wonders if it's 'cosmic payback' that Grace saved him. Hope can't believe someone would do something 'so heinous, all in the name of money.' Grace says she's too busy and she tries to leave, but Finn won't let her leave. He says Grace hasn't been herself for months, and she's shaking. Grace knows Liam is important to him, and Finn says he's grateful, but the story doesn't add up. Plus, he looked at the incisions and they're too small. His recovery was too fast. The neuro team also has no record of Liam having a brain tumor after his brain bleed. Finn says Grace used to copy him on emails with Liam's progress, but when he thinks back, he only ever saw Grace monitoring Liam's treatment. Now he's wondering if Liam ever had a brain tumor to begin with. Nick pilots the boat out of the slip. Brooke is on the back of the boat, and he struggles with the steering from the start. Ridge leaves a frantic message on Brooke's phone, warning her not to get on the boat, as Eric (John McCook), in his hotel room, realizes that he has to do something to find Brooke. Ridge, in the meantime, sees Nick's boat heading out to sea. Liam notes that as painful as all the Reese talk is, it reinforces how blessed they are to have Beth in their lives. He grasps Hope's hand and says they're blessed it came full circle. Hope calls Grace a saint and expresses her gratitude for everything Grace has done for their family. 'I thank God we didn't lose you,' she says. Grace says she has an appointment. She's visibly shaken as Finn points out the small incisions, the fast recovery and the missing records. Grace says all that matters is that Liam is going to live, but Finn says he was never sick to begin with. Grace breaks down in tears and says she had no choice, admitting, 'I made the whole thing up.' She admits she made it all up because Reese and his gambling debts were threatening her girls, and they were at risk. She needed the money and was desperate to get it. Ridge races along the boardwalk as Nick tries to steer the boat. He narrowly avoids a collision, but Brooke falls into the water. Ridge, without hesitation, dives into the water to save her.
