Monster: Zero Ultra

And this is the very special review I was talking about! Found at a 7-11 in downtown Denver. According to the can people have been asking for a lighter tasting monster (which is a perfect idea). But even before I try it I know the best thing is the can. First off its white! And has beautiful decoration, also the can is textured. This is a drink you can be seen with, with class.

Taste- They sure did it. Its light and refreshing. Not thirst refreshing exactly but its pretty much like an absolute zero that actually tastes good and isn't so harsh which are the two reasons that drink blew. If I had to describe it perfect I would say its monsters closest drink to a pure sprite style citrus. But not exactly lemon lime, more of a different fruit tastes exactly like honey dew melon. Its nothing spectacular but its just what they wanted and I'm down with the idea.

RATING-8/10

Buzz- Just like some of their other drinks that say "we did this and that but still gave it a full load of the monster energy blend" they didn't but they said it again. This time they gave it the least amount of energy ingredients Ive ever seen in a monster drink. I'm assuming because they cant mask over the bad taste of all those ingredients with a strong flavor, which totally makes sense. 1,400 mgs taurine, ginseng, l-carnitine,glucuronolactone, inositol, gaurana and maltidextrin. 20 mgs vitamin B3. 10 mgs vitamin B5. 2 mgs B6 and 6 B12. What surprises me here is there is more ginseng and carnitine than caffeine. I dont think Ive ever seen that in an energy drink. But since this drink is still new I cant find out how much caffeine is in it, but it would be good to know.

RATING-7/10

Total amount of mgs-1438

Over all rating-7.5/10

  2. Had one of these new white can monsters! Said they made them for women but I will have no problem drinking these. Best tasting energy drink ever! We had two other of the newer flavors and everyone chose this one as the best tasting. They have a slight grapefruity taste, like a mix between fresca and squirt. The main sweetener is erythritol.

  12. Drinking one of these right now. I couldn't place the taste of it right off. But reading your comments you are right. It taste exactly like Fresca to me! (Haven't had one of those in forever.) This is my new favorite of the Monster brand. Let's hope it sticks around!

  15. How does it compare in taste to the new XS SUMMIT? I found it on Amway.com/JamesLifeStyle.com

    Summit tastes like mountain dew to me, per the last time I had one, over a decade ago. I'm not a soda drinker, so my taste buds may be different than yours. I happen to like some of the XS flavors though. I think they're up to 16!
