On Saturday, June 27, 2026, actress and entrepreneur Sasha Pieterse (Pretty Little Liars) brought an elevated afternoon of movement, connection, and mindful strength training to West Los Angeles. Hosted at the luxurious ARTHA Wellness Sanctuary, the exclusive event celebrated the launch of Pieterse’s brand, Hippie Energy—the market’s first true whole-body energy drink.

The intimate gathering transformed the sanctuary into a vibrant wellness destination, bringing together VIP guests, content creators, wellness founders, and community members. Among the notable attendees was actress and wellness enthusiast Jamie Chung (The Hunting Party, Dexter), who joined the crowd to support Pieterse’s latest venture.

The afternoon kicked off with an engaging session of product discovery and socializing. Guests mingled and sampled the brand’s offerings before transitioning into an intense, inspiring Yoga Sculpt session. The class was led by actress Francia Raisa (Grown-ish, How I Met Your Mother), a close friend of Pieterse who pursues expert yoga instruction as a passionate side career. Raisa guided the room through a powerful flow rooted in empowerment and physical strength.

The event served as the perfect introduction to Hippie Energy’s refreshing lineup. Designed to provide clean, hydrating energy without the crash, the beverage comes in three distinct flavors: Citrus Groove, Peach Party, and Watermelon Getaway. Each can is packed with essential electrolytes, green coffee extract, prebiotic fiber, and a functional mushroom blend, all while maintaining zero added sugars or artificial sweeteners.

In addition to the signature energy drinks, guests were treated to Hippie Brew, the brand’s premium liquid coffee concentrate. Crafted with caffeine from real coffee, prebiotic fiber, and a mushroom blend, the brew was served at a dedicated coffee station in two decadent flavors: Golden Roast and Mocha Reserve. Beyond the workout, attendees enjoyed curated gifting moments alongside the Hippie Energy cooler bar. The afternoon featured premium sampling from a select group of wellness and beauty brands, including Proper Health, SkinnyDipped, Everydaze, Stringy’s, Nine Glow, and K18 Hair.
