Answer 4

There is no legal age requirement. However, energy drinks are not meant for kids and the manufacturers even state this. Even the healthy energy drinks say they are not designed for kids. Some people just decide to make it their responsibility for to decide who gets to buy it and who does not. Some places have been asked by parents to not sell them to kids.

Perhaps it's a state law within the state you live. Not all state and city laws make sense
