Energy Drink Heaven

Rip it: Lemoan'R

2011-12-29T00:35:00.000-08:00

I love my rip its. I think I drink them more than any other energy drink. For obvious reasons.

Taste-They nailed it. One of the best rip its. Its odd that the best ones are harder to find like the lemon lime one, ginzinger or atomic pom. Its so funny that they keep using sexual puns for their drink names. You can really taste the raspberry lemonade but its also got a great soda flavor without being too candy like. Like I said they nailed it. I definitely recommend this flavor. Great idea to do raspberry lemo instead of being easy and just trying pink lemonade.

Taste-8.5/10

Buzz-1010 mgs taurine. 102 mgs caffine. 100 mgs inositol. 3mgs gaurana. 100% rda of the rest of your b vitamins and 120% vitamin c. Always a decent buzz for your dollar. Looks like they're sticking with this blend.

Rockstar: Xdurance

2011-12-25T07:08:00.000-08:00

Merry Christmas everybody! Its not often that Ill get to do a review on Christmas but I found these two new rockstars so that was an awesome early Christmas present for me and you guys can get the reviews for a present from me!

Taste-It tastes powerful and like it works. I Like that about a energy drink, it doesn't have to be that good but just drinking it you know your going to get results. Same with the look of the can. The only taste I could compare it to for an idea would be a really nasty chalky candy like sweet tarts. Most wont like it, but I'm sure they didn't go for flavor on this one. But I personally think its alright, gets worse as you drink though.

RATING-7/10

Buzz-It comes with three new ingredients for your energy needs. Three branched amino acids called l-valine, l-leucine and l-isoluencine. All these are protein based acids, which makes this another great drink for working out! Leucine stimulates the muscle tissue and the other two basically complete it. Rockstar really knows what they're doing, I hope people realize that when they buy this drink. 1000 mgs taurine, 120 mgs caffine, 25 mgs l-valine, l-leucine and l-isoluencine, green tea and gaurana. Plus 100% B5, B3 and B6.

Rockstar: Hydration - Coconut water

2011-12-24T22:42:00.000-08:00

Merry Christmas everybody! Its not often that Ill get to do a review on Christmas but I found these two new rockstars so that was an awesome early Christmas present for me and you guys can get the reviews for a present from me!

Taste-Seeing that pretty can with my favorite color got me very excited and seeing coconut water got me even more excited. But after hearing that sound of a can without carbonated pressure open I was let down in an instant. It should be really refreshing like a taste with barely any sweetener if what that should have gone for but they over did it on the sucrose and it just tastes gross. Like thicker water with fake sugar. But the first second of yummy coconut is what made me keep drinking, and it is real coconut juice with 10% in the can!

RATING-5.5/10

Buzz-I will probably buy this often. Not because I like it but because its like the most intriguing drink for me. I mean I love the idea of coconut juice and I'm in love with the can plus I like the hydration energy drinks for working out and I like to keep it unique. Because surely none of my friends will buy this. The blend is lame with only 1000 mgs taurine, 80 mgs caffeine, 50 mgs ginseng and 25 mgs milk thistle and all your b vitamins, it seems they cut out the prickly pear like the other hydration drinks have. But I do give it extra credit for the electrolytes. I wonder why they don't say how much is in them.

Fuel: Orange cream

2011-12-10T21:37:00.000-08:00

This is my friend cat sasss. Shes wanted to model for this drink. We both drank it and decided the taste rating. I'm very tired.

Taste- Reminds me of a orange dreamsicle, and it should because the name is orange cream. Just like green apple it has the perfect sweetness but this doesn't taste as artificial even though it obviously is. Nice carbonation and I would actually pick this one over some of the main brands at my local road ranger.

RATING-8.5/10

Buzz- I had this earlier today but I still haven't caught up on my sleep. This did help though for almost half of my day. But once the effects left I felt like total shit. Like I feel now. 1000 mgs taurine. 5 mgs gaurana, glucuronolactone and inositol. 100 mgs l-carnitine a nice metabolism booster, and this drink has enough for it to show some effect. 120 mgs caffeine which would be 240 in the whole can. Not bad, although there is really only 3 working ingredients here, the others don't have enough to matter and where are the B vitamins?

Red Strike: Sugar free

2011-12-09T05:05:00.000-08:00

Nothing like doing a review at 7 am with only 6 hours of sleep in the past 36 hours.

Taste- Like Ive always said, the sugar free red bull flavored drinks are always better than the originals.. usually. But its the opposite for actual red bull.

RATING-6.5/10

Buzz- Had this right before a monster, I was hyper as fuck at work right when I got there, ready to work a 9 hour shift then crashed 45 minuets later. Horrible night, I got off about an hour ago. 960 mgs taurine. Not even on par with most drinks that have the typical 1000. 90% RDA niacin. 240% vit B6. 80% vit B12 and 45% pantothenic acid.

Fuel: Green apple

2011-12-08T17:17:00.000-08:00

Ive passed this drink up before thinking Ive already reviewed it but its a totally different drink with the same flavor as a similar "less intense" drink called atom bomb.

Taste- Apple candy. If you like this kind o taste in your pop but cant stand the usual sickening sweetness that comes with it you will like this drink. I was expecting a lot sweeter of a drink so I had low cal in my mind the whole time I was drinking it. Its pretty average, nothing to write home about and you have to have that little kid feeling to drink it. Also it has a very nice smooth finish with a perfect after taste. That's probably the best part.

RATING-7/10

Buzz- I love when I can tell that a energy drink actually worked (since I drink so many) and this one did. I had a good feeling buzz going for about 4 hours with no crash. 1000 mgs taurine. 5 mgs gaurana, glucuronolactone and inositol. 100 mgs l-carnitine a nice metabolism booster, and this drink has enough for it to show some effect. 120 mgs caffeine which would be 240 in the whole can.

Red Strike

2011-12-08T06:38:00.000-08:00

So me and my bro Zak Dawg (from swagg shit) were at walmart getting his swagg shit merch material (buy one of his shirts they are cool, but not cooler than anything related to this website or me) when this chocolate faced women asked us for some gas and out of Zaks big kind heart she got some gas at the walmart gas station. One good deed lead to another as Zak bought me two new energy drinks that I spotted.

Taste- Haven't had a new red bull clone in awhile. This is another generic one brought to you by Cott beverages. Its just what you expect if you've ever had a drink ripped off of red bull, which is just that red bull flavor but less crisp and refreshing. More dull and cheap tasting. But the most important fact is that it still tastes good.

RATING-6/10

Buzz- Here's the boring part. 960 mgs taurine. Not even on par with most drinks that have the typical 1000. 90% RDA niacin. 240% vit B6. 80% vit B12 and 45% pantothenic acid.

Monster: Rehab - Protean

2011-11-28T10:57:00.000-08:00

I'm not quite sure if Ive ever been this excited to review a drink. Before I open the can Ill tell you why. When I reviewed the first rehab I said what a genius idea this was because why do people mainly need energy? For working out/playing sports/exorcising, and that's why it was so smart to make a low calorie uncarbonated monster that's refreshing and has electrolytes like Gatorade. But I said the only thing its missing is protein. If they made rehab with protein it would be the most revolutionary drink in the world. And here it is!

Taste- I was told by my friend Nick that it tastes like a beauty salon and by that I didn't know what to expect. It does, it reminds me of licking make up because it looks like it would tastes good but it doesn't. It even has not a chalky pallet but a bitter one that numbs your mouth as an after taste and gets worse as you drink. You can without a doubt tell its low calorie this time and its supposedly a tea but you would never guess its made with white and black tea. I expected a little less because of the protein and I was going to give it a break but they could have added even more without making it taste like a candle or some lipstick.

RATING- 5/10

Buzz- Now the bad taste doesn't even matter. We now have 3200 mgs, almost as much as original with all the rehab ingredients plus yerba mate in the blend and 15gs non soy protein! I really wish they would have added more protein. For me when I go to the gym I usually drink 150gs (which is way too much, you should have about 65gs in one sitting) 200 mgs ginseng. 1000 mgs taurine and 100% of all your B vitamins.

Monster: Rehab - Rojo tea

2011-11-27T20:48:00.000-08:00

Round 2 of rehab. I like monsters new warning. It says max 1 can every 4 hours with the limit of 3 per day. But how come they sell BFC's with twice the amount of liquid. I wonder what those say now.

Taste- I really am a fan of exotic tea, mainly because I like trying different kinds, kind of like energy drinks or anything else in my life. It has a very smooth texture and kind of thick. Not as refreshing as any of the others but it goes very well with the tea and even cranberry juice. Bit of a stronger flavor too with no sign of being low calorie. You are flawless once again monster.

RATING-10/10

Buzz- The differences in this rehab blend are no green tea or prickely pear but we have rooibos tea, a South African tea with high flavonols, flavones and flavanones. It can help with nervous tension, alergies, digestive problems and even acne. All together we have 3000 mgs glucose, black tea, rooibos tea, maltidextrin, caffeine, coconut water, quercetin, l-carnitine, inositol, glucuronolactone, gaurana, goji berry and acia berry. 200 mgs ginseng. 1000 mgs taurine and 100% of all your B vitamins.

Monster: Rehab - Green tea

2011-11-27T10:35:00.000-08:00

I'm so excited to try these new rehabs. As you can tell to your left the original rehab was my favorite energy with the highest overall rating.

Taste- We start with green tea. Knowing monster its already made amazing. Then we add some coconut water. Brilliant idea. And then some acia berry and goji berry. I know this is probably mainly water with artificial sugar and some pineapple juice with some green tea solids. But the concept is healthy and perfect for the new era of energy drinks. I just love where monster and rockstar are going. But anyways its awesome, its just as good as the original but even more refreshing. It tastes just like it has all those ingredients mentioned (at the forefront) and once again just ten calories. Big up monster and I know you nailed the other two.

RATING-10/10

Buzz- Okay so compared to original rehab we have an added ingredient, prickly pear extract other wise know as fruit from a cactus and a great antioxidant but they brought down the blend from 3227.5 mgs to 3000. That's stinks because it will hurt the score and wont give it a perfect rating. All together we have 3000 mgs glucose, black tea, green tea, maltidextrin, caffeine, coconut water prickly pear, quercetin, l-carnitine, inositol, glucuronolactone, gaurana, goji berry and acia berry. I see now theyre starting to add things that wont even give you energy. 200 mgs ginseng. 1000 mgs taurine and 100% of all your B vitamins.

You can tell a drink isn't American by two things. The tab at the top and the amount of caffeine. Most drinks that arnt from the U.S have a squarish tab and have only 32 mgs of caffeine like this petty drink.

Taste- Not worth a 1.50 at all, I would so pay 50 cents more for a red bull or even a dollar if I had a choice. It just comes off bland compared to red bull (I know because I had one yesterday) I have more and more respect for RB the more I drink them and I never used to think this but they are on the top of the line for red bull flavored drinks. You just cant compare.

RATING-3.5/10

Buzz- This ones from the UK (which explains a lot) and only having 32 mgs of caffeine, as much as a can of coke. Half your DV or niacin and pantothenic acid. 100% vitamin B6 and B12. Like we say in America, go big or go home!

Monster: X-presso - Midnight

2011-10-10T16:17:00.000-07:00

I didn't even realize this was a new drink until after a month of being sold. Ive only seen the two x-presso drinks at a smoke shop and one gas station. The other one is hammer, they took the design of the old hammer and used it for this drink and gave the new hammer a light brown color can and added 1.6 ounces. It seems like a lot larger of a can but there is 3 inches where there is no liquid to make room for the foam.

Taste- Stronger than hammer which makes sense why they changed up the cans. Hammer had a yummy candy taste and this is for the more hardcore people who want that bitter espresso taste. Its quality coffee like usual but I would always just go for the monster javas instead. Its infused with nitrous but you cant really tell as much anymore (I think they toned it down with all the nitrous drinks) but the foam at the top is neat.

RATING-5.5/10

Buzz- When you find a can of monster that's smaller than 16 oz it usually has a bumped up energy blend. This doesn't, its like drinking half a can of monster. 2500 mgs glucose, caffeine, inositol, glucuronolactone, gaurana, l-carnitine and maltidextrin. 200 mgs ginseng and 1000 mgs taurine. With all your B vitamins and 30 mgs vitamin C.

RTD 51: Mocha Blast

2011-09-26T23:01:00.000-07:00

Picked this one up at the gym. I love the idea of a protein drink with energy ingredients because its the best of both worlds when you work out. But someone should do it better than this.

Taste- It has the consistency of glue. It was so hard to swallow especially after it sat for a little. I could not finish it, and when I cant finish a drink (which is very rare) it gets a 1. The taste for pretty bad too, even for a protein shake. That resembled glue too.

RATING-1/10

Buzz- 200 mgs of caffeine ain't bad and you also got an average of 50% RDA of vitamin A,C,D,E,K,B2,B3,B5,B6 and B12. Folic acid, bioten, iron, phosphorus, iodine, magnesium, zinc, selenium, copper, manganese, chromium, molybdenum and potassium. 100% calcium and 51 gs protein. So for a nice amount of caffeine, over 20 vitamins and minerals for metabolism and energy support and a nice 51 gs of protein I can give this a decent rating. But it does come at a price, 3.50 a can to be exact, and that's a good price. They can usually be 4 at a health food store.

Havoc

2011-09-20T19:10:00.000-07:00

Sorry guys. It seems like energy drinks are dying, and it hurts me to say it :( but I will not stop reviewing! After 5 hour energy came out and ruined energy drinks with the shot idea, and then after that energy powders and anything concentrated people just got too lazy to enjoy a carbonated tasty energy treat. And the only place I can find new drinks now it big lots as you can tell.

Taste- Very good, it actually takes me back to 2008 when I started drinking them and a lot of them tasted like this. Call me crazy but the taste of "energy drink" would bring me so much joy. A simple innocent joy, but then soon after drugs took the place of that and that's how it went for most young teens. But now I'm straight edge and drug free and back to loving my energy drinks. Sorry getting off track here, but its a sweet red bull/citrus drink with a not so much "apple" after tastes but kind of like a really red sweet gala apple taste. Not too complex, but enjoyable for sure.

RATING-7.5/10

Buzz- Half the time I don't give a crap about a nice buzz rate, just a unique taste only found in energy drinks. 89% RDA riboflavin. 95% vitamin B6. 86% vitamin B12 and 48% pantothenic acid.

V fusion energy: Peach mango

2011-08-21T11:23:00.000-07:00

Energy for the dumb founded.

Taste- I'm sure you guys have had peach mango V8 splash or fusion. That's what this is. Mostly mango accents with a slight hint of carrot juice at the end. It does have half of your daily value of fruits and veggies. That's a good enough reason right there to drink it and you really can only taste fruit juice although I'm no fanatic on boring ol' fruit juice.

RATING-7/10

Buzz- 100% rda vitamin C. 10% vitamin A and E. 30% Thiamin and riboflavin. 20% niacin. 40% vitamin B6 and 60% B12. 80 mgs caffeine from green tea. As much as a can of doctor pepper.

Rip it: F bomb - Sugar free

2011-08-16T17:27:00.000-07:00

Another thrown away can from the mother. Had to skate all the way back a different day and grab another. Hey that rhymed!

Taste- It tasted alright but it had kind of a filmy texture to it if you know what I mean. Like kind of slimey. Most of their sugar free drinks don't have that but instead kind of burn your throat.. (not good). I wish I could imagine what they use to flavor this because its sure not natural by any means.

RATING-5/10

Buzz- I wonder why all their drinks have slightly different amounts of energy ingredients. This one has 1010 mgs taurine. 89 mgs caffeine. 100 mgs inositol and 3 mgs gaurana. 2 mgs vitamin B6. 420 mgs folic acid. 10 mgs vitamin B12 and 60 mgs vitamin C.

Got this from my friend and ex reviewer Nick but he wouldn't tell me where he got it. He usually doesn't and I'm stuck wondering.

Taste- Crack open the can and you instantly smell vitamins and you know what your in for. A disgusting sugar free carbonated drink that you swear is made up of tasteless chewable vitamins dissolved into water with acid. It reminds me of the stacker drinks but with no actual flavoring.

RATING-2/10

Buzz- This drink hits the nail on the head with the three things an energy drink should do. Promote metabolism, endurance and support brain function. Also has some anti oxidants thrown in as a plus. 450 mgs acia berry. 300 mgs gaurana (impressive!) 120 mgs ginko biloba. 100 mgs ginseng. 100 mgs l-carnitine. 80 mgs green tea extract and 10 mgs resveratrol (its not yet proven in humans but resveratrol was shown to have anti cancer, inflammatory and ageing properties in animal testing. It did show to help in lowering blood sugar in humans when taken in high doses like 3 to 5 grams, only the other hand this drink only contains a spec of that and not enough to do anything.) This drink also contains 50 mgs vitamin C and B3. 12 mgs vitamin B1, B2 and B6. 200 mgs folic acid and 100 mgs vitamin B12.

Dang: Sugar free

2011-08-07T14:44:00.000-07:00

Heyyyyy ya'lll! I'm super fucking hyper because I just slammed a monster heavy metal! I Love when energy drinks actually work on me! Because its not that often. So me and my brother a couple days ago went on a skate adventure downtown and we ended up on the west side at a quick stop shop and I found this and f bomb sugar free (which my mom threw away the next day).

Taste- So much better than the original it was shocking! Not only was it better than that sticky stale dusty drink, this was pretty damn good for a sugar free drink in general, let alone a generic red bull clone. It was refreshing and had a perfect crisp taste to it. Opposite of the original. If there were no labels saying sugar free or not many SF drinks would just win as an overall better drink.

RATING-8.5/10

Buzz- I slammed this drink in less than 5 minuets and was on my way skating again, it kept me going without getting worn out so I guess it did its job. Just your 4 B vitamins. 100% rda niacin. 80% vitamin B12. 240% B6 and 50% pantothenic acid.

2011-08-02T09:55:00.000-07:00

Taste- Like stale piss with sucrose. Which means its a red bull clone of course. A cheap one that was probably in this fridge in a run down gas station in a little town called Hebron for awhile.

RATING-3.5/10

Buzz- Just your 4 B vitamins. 100% rda niacin. 80% vitamin B12. 240% B6 and 50% pantothenic acid. I do like the look of the can though and if I didn't need it for the site I probably would have grabbed it anyway, and that's all you need to do to sell a drink. It can still taste like piss and actually NOT have extreme energy whatsoever but just needs to look appealing. Looks good on the outside but what matters is actually toxic. Kind of like women :)

Rip it: 3 way

2011-07-28T16:17:00.000-07:00

Rip its to me are like candy to kids, I love finding new ones, their all colorful and cheap and they taste like candy too.

Taste- Its okay, or a little better than okay but not for a berry drink. It reminds me of the agave full throttle but that drink is more crisp, refreshing and you get a good mix of citrus, agave and berry. This is more like blah; HFCS with some kind of artificial berry flavoring. But what can you expect for a dollar. Its still worth every penny but its third to last for the rip its with g force and then f bomb being the worst. I cant deny that I still enjoy drinking it.

RATING-7/10

Buzz- There is no better feeling than having a adrenaline rush from working out at the gym and having a nice hydration energy drink like rehab or rockstar recovery. That really has nothing to do with this drink but I wanted to let you guys know. Try it sometime. Rip its are so unhealthy but fun to drink. 1010 mgs taurine. 102 mgs caffeine. 100 mgs inositol and 3 mgs gaurana. 6 mgs vitamin B12. 400 mgs folic acid. 2 mgs B6 and 70 mgs vitamin C. The odd numbers are funny, maybe they think that they can deceive you into thinking its a lot more.. idk. But that gaurana isn't going to do shit.

so my mommy got this fancy new lap top so now I can write reviews while I'm on the shitter. :)

Taste- Surprisingly better than the other two flavored drinks. This one doesn't have a chemical taste and its actually refreshing. But they still could do more to be on par with other coffee energy drinks, but hey what can you expect from an off brand?

RATING-6/10

2011-07-25T14:44:00.000-07:00

There is my little mooger boushe again posing for this drink after I woke her up from her nap. She seemed scared of the can.

Taste- Just as I assumed watered down coffee with a sour vanilla taste. Usually everything vanilla is delicious, but this drink just mocked it. I don't know what gives it the artificial sweetener taste when they only use sugar and not much of it considering its only 100 calories. This is even worse than the mocha. Its hard to make a bad iced coffee but archer farms is good at it.

RATING-3/10

Buzz- Cool so they give you the amount of caffeine that's in the coffee itself which is only 60 mgs (thats 5 less than mocha and the original which I will review next) since its so watered down with even less coffee and they brag about how its vitamin rich with only 25% rda of your b vitamins, vitamin d and c. This will not give you any sort of energy.

Taste- Don't you love watered down coffee that is the farthest thing from fresh? Me too! NOT! Yeah so that's what this is, taking coffee letting it cool and adding nes-quick and milk is so much more delicious than this crap, you would think it wouldn't be hard to make something better. Bland, boring and artificial.

Good night

2011-07-20T23:55:00.000-07:00

I'm seeing more and more of these on the market. Usually only about 1 out of every 4 works for me and its usually the disgusting ones.

Taste- An amazing refreshing taste that's perfect for bedtime! It doesn't have a marked flavor but it has cactus fig flavor as the last ingredient. I'm pretty sure that's what I'm tasting here is cactus fruit even though Ive only had it once, but they captured it in this can. I like how it has a nice light but sweet taste to it.

RATING-9/10

Buzz- Well I gave it 30 minuets to kick in and I'm pretty much ready to hit the hay but then again its 2 am. This drinks contains Valerian (not tastable so therefor its not enough to work) rose hip and lavender. Some people put lavender seeds and flowers in their pillows to help relax them but its more the smell than ingesting it that aids to relaxing.

Goodnight...

http://www.goodnightdrink.se/

to the people who think their kids should stay away from energy drinks

2011-07-20T23:51:00.000-07:00

I needed to post my opinion sooner or later. I think that kids are attracted to them so they can use them as a "drug" to get a caffeine buzz because they have a good taste like pop and not coffee. Although many energy drinks are actually good for you and contain many vitamins and natural herbs to give you energy. Most people don't realize that 75% of them have less caffeine than coffee (oz. for oz.). Also now a' days energy drinks are becoming healthier and more attracted to adults.

I was already falling asleep on the train ride home from Chicago when we had to drive an hour back to Rockford from Harvard. But I wanted to have some fun so i drank this in the car and tried to see how long I could fight it. (Don't worry I was not driving.)

Taste- Ill quote my friends. Tyler; "What is this concoction of putrid filth?" Cat; "Tastes like piss and coffee" Jacob; "owiehcwecpm". And I agree with cat it was disgusting! But that was from the valarian root which smells like dirty socks but works like magic. So even a little can make it taste like your drinking piss. I had to plus my nose to get the 4 ounces down.

RATING-1/10

Sluzz- Yeah I couldnt stay up long after but I was tired as hell either way. I was a zombie walking into the house and I just said fuck it and passed out on the couch. This drink contains 278 mgs valarian, GABA and melatonin. Ive mentioned valarian and GABA to you guys before but melatonin can come from animals, plants or microbes. It comes natural in all of us mammals and is considered the hormone of darkness. It can cure basically about everything imaginable that you wouldnt want to have. Including insomnia. There isnt enough valarian or GABA to be effective but even 8 mgs of melatonin can help. Im not sure how much of just that is in here but it worked for me I guess.

I found this can at a 7-11 in Chicago right after something very unbelievable happened. Me and my four friends were trying to enjoy a day in Chicago and we were smoking cigarettes on a bench right near millennium park when three lice (cops) pulled up on bikes and asked all of us for our Id's and when they asked my friend Jacob for his he said he didn't have it because he thought he didn't. So they checked him for no reason and found it, hand cuffed him and said he was going to jail over night because his dad said so (when his dad never even said those words on the phone) then they hand cuffed me to my friend for no reason. So after they were done breaking our cigarettes over my friend Cats head they gave a ticket to my friend Tyler for "being in possession of a sharpie maker" and "underage smoking" then gave me one for "contributing to minor smoking" and told us "to get the fuck back to Rockford". Please make it known and don't let this tyranny go on.

Taste- Like carbonated tang with a shocking chewable vitamin after taste. You cant tell its sugar free but the after taste is disgusting. You end up taking drink after drink to get rid of the vitamin taste but it always comes back haha.

Just wanted to let you know the energy drink guru is now 100% drug free and living for God. You guys don't know my past and it would probably take a book to tell you but Ive been on a bumpy road. So now you can say I'm organic.

Taste- Tastes like the farthest thing from organic, like your drinking some air freshener. Thing is they still use sugar, just barely any. Without any fake sweeteners. What gives it the nasty taste use the pure acai and acerola juices. This drink is so good for you its like a delicacy.

I lost my original version of the can (even though I had 20 of them) and you guys know I don't like posting a review if I don't actually have the can.

Taste- Better than the original! Just like the blue monster is better than the green monster. (who agrees with me?) Sugar free just can be more refreshing sometimes. The original was just too sticky and sweet to enjoy, but this I can. Without feeling guilty either.

Ive always wanted to try an actual passion fruit. I wonder if they taste anything like the energy drinks or the so called "passion fruit flavored juice beverages". I just might have to go to Brazil to get one.

Taste- Passion fruit definitely tastes better than it looks, but what about this drink, does it taste better than it looks? Yes that is for sure! I'm sure it doesn't taste like the real thing, in fact that's its only downfall is that it tastes a little too fake.

Lemon lime. The most common flavor of soft drinks and the most boring sometimes.

This was a big shock. A VERY big one.

Taste- I saw the word bitter on the can and thought oh shit this is the extremely nasty drink Kevin energy was telling me about. I took a sip and its like pure grapefruit juice mixed with carbonation and some sugar. This would definitely be the worst tasting energy drink but in a sense its not. If it was more chemically nasty it would be worse than just grapefruit juice. But the bitterness gives you some energy and says hey slap yourself silly.

There is so many bull shit energy products made by stacker and none of them work. Speed addicts resort to the pills when they need their fix. At least they got rid of all the stinger drinks and came out with these better tasting drinks. Most of them they just carried over the flavors but I found one new flavor. Too bad they still fail and get a place on big lots shelfs.

I know its just me but I have a little issue with spiced flavored alcohol like whiskey or brandy or bourbon or anything in that category, if I have even a little taste of it I will puke. Now this drink tastes like 50% whiskey 40% espresso and 10% milk, it is outright disgusting so I had my friends drink most of it (which was like one sip each).

Seems like the only place I can find drinks I don't have anymore is out of town, and it kind of sucks because I'm 18 without a car or job and I live with my parents so its hard to travel. But yesterday we did take a little over an hour trip north to Madison Wisconsin where I found this at some odd grocery store. Madison's also where I found rehab, sorry Rockford we have about another month.

Taste- Naturally flavored but it sure doesn't taste like it. Sometimes you can let that sugar free taste slip by and think to yourself its not but then theres drinks here that should basically be called sucralose flavored. I don't know maybe I'm being a little harsh, maybe after rehab every sugar free drink will just be garbage, might as well be.

RATING-4/10

Buzz- 1,350 mgs taurine, caffeine, glucuronolactone, gaurana, ginseng, inositol and l-carnitine. I hate when they just list the blend like that instead of each ingredient separate. I bet you 1000 of its just taurine. At least monster will separate the taurine and the ginseng from their blend list.

I probably wouldnt have found this drink for awhile because I didn't know they came out with it until fellow reader "Kevin Energy" informed me on it.

Taste- I was expecting this. Fake orange flavoring just like the grape, maybe not as bad. Stick with the lemonade flavor because its far better than these. This tastes like flat generic watered down pop with baby aspirin taste. Although the more you drink it the better it becomes which is always good.

RATING-5.5/10

Buzz- They cut out the n-acetyl crysteine from this one. 100 mgs taurine, 80 mgs caffeine. 50 mgs ginseng. 25 mgs prickly pear extract and 20 mgs milk thistle. All your b vitamins and a nice 250% rda of B12. This drink has some cool ingridients and electrolytes but not enough and not enough of them.

My favorite company came back again with a new flavor. Will it be the next "cool" drink or be a complete bust???

Taste- Straight up grape cough medicine. Its like they took actual cough syrup and added extra water and fake sweetener. For me if its a grape drink it has to be perfect with no artificial taste and this is one of the farthest drinks from that.

2011-03-10T20:03:00.000-08:00

Taste- I usually don't like fruit punch energy drinks as some of you might know, because they are usually loaded with sugar and taste gross. But this line of drinks sucks because they don't but for this drink its a plus. Still not a worthy drink but its still probably the best out of the four.

Red rain: downpour

2011-03-10T10:11:00.000-08:00

I never really get to find new drinks anymore because 1. I don't have a car anymore and 2. I'm usually always busy. But yesterday I decided to go job hunting (which turned out pretty successful) and thought I should stop at dollar tree to see if they were hiring and found 3 flavors of red rain, and two Ive never had before. Too bad they weren't hiring.

Taste- So tasty! This is why I love energy drinks! I almost just want to give it a ten but I know that's sacrificial. I can taste the cherry but that limeade flavor just completes it even though its not so close to tasting like actual cherry limeade that your mom makes in the pitcher. Fxck it, I don't see how it can get much better.

Out for a joy ride, hmmm where should we go? How about woodmans they're open 24/7? Alright!

Taste- These beans come from Hawaii, well actually 25% of them do the rest are just the regular imported beans from who knows where, maybe Mexico? It isn't anything special to me, in fact its probably the least flavorful out of all the Java's.

Product of Canada with half the can in French.

Taste- A sort of airy red bull clone. I don't know what it is but it seems like it should be more fulfilling.

RATING-6/10

Buzz- Caffeine free, that's a surprise but they make up for it with 946 mgs ginko leaf. 473 mgs chinese ginseng. 473 mgs siberian ginseng and 817 mgs royal jelly. Wow two different ginseng's from two different country's. Royal jelly benefits the immune system and gives you energy and stamina, it is secreted from the salivary glands of worker bee's. This is some crazy amounts of high quality energy supplements.

Whoop ass

2010-12-20T20:24:00.000-08:00

Ive had this drink for almost 2 years now and today a reader said "hey have you ever heard of this drink called whoop ass, you need to review it" and I said yeah I do have it, but it turns out I never reviewed it for some reason. That makes me wonder if theres any other drinks I missed.

Taste- Ill try to remember to the best of my ability since its most likely ill never see this drink again to be able to drink it again. I remember the color was candy green like a liquefied jolly rancher but the drink tasted like a dusty red bull. This drink is defiantly for the looks and I would say its one of the coolest energy drinks out there.

RATING-5/10

Buzz- This drink is made by jones soda company and gives you some chalky vitamins to handle. 300% rda thiamin. 100% niacin. 310% riboflavin and 220% vitamin b6. But like all jones drinks this is made with cane sugar which probably helped the taste but I don't want to give an inaccurate review.

Thought I would take a pretty picture of myself for this one. This drink isn't really about the drink its about spreading the name of thor global defense and giving back money to the camp patriot association. And thank you Dylan Davis from NRG drink euphoria for telling me about this drink... happy?

Taste- A refreshing red bull flavor that beats red bull. I love when I don't know what to expect and I get a red bull, its nice every once and awhile.

2010-12-16T18:33:00.000-08:00

Probably rockstars greatest effort yet. The can is very nice and so is everything else. Best drink from rockstar hands down.

Taste- You would never know it was sugar free, in fact it tastes better than original rockstar in my opinion! You don't get that pucker mouth feeling and it has a nice apple taste to it with a zing. More than likely the best tasting sugar free energy drink ever!

RATING-10/10

Buzz- Amazingly the twice the caffeine doesn't effect the flavor at all. And ounce for ounce this is rockstars strongest formula yet. 1000 mgs taurine, 250 mgs caffeine, 100 mgs ginseng, 100 mgs arginine, 25 mgs l-caritine, inositol and ginseng. 100% RDA vitamin b3,b5 and b6. 200% rda vitamin b2.

Once again I go to look for monster kona blend and I find another goodie.

Taste- Needs more coffee to weigh out the sugar free taste and a few more drops of vanilla. I don't usually buy these java drinks because I just scarf them down too quickly because they're not carbonated.

RATING-7/10

Buzz- All of your b vitamins and half your c. 1000 mgs taurine. 200 mgs ginseng and 2500 mgs l-carnitine, glucose, caffeine, gaurana, inositol, glucuronolactone and maltidextrin.

Rockstar:pink

2010-12-16T09:34:00.000-08:00

Went to this gas station looking for the new java monster and found these beauties. This new rockstar is obviously for chicks with the nifty added straw, why? Because females think they're special and can have straws so the carbonation doesn't ruin their dainty teeth. And don't forget everything must be pretty and pink in a women's world.

Taste- With the straw 10. Without the straw 8.5. Yes it makes that much of a difference. With the straw it seems like the liquid reaches the back of your tongue and sides so you get a better tasting. When you sip it, it just seems a lot blander. But I love the flavor especially for being completely sugar free. The liquid is pink and so is the flavor, it doesn't have a fruit or berry taste but it still has a "bright" flavor.

RATING-9.5/10

Buzz- Yay so now women can put on their make up faster! 100% RDA folic acid and vitamin b3, b5, b6 and b12. 1000 mgs taurine, 120 caffeine and 100 mgs ginseng. Just enough for them I suppose.

I was really impatient to find this drink awhile ago, then I forgot about it and one day my car decides to completely shut down at this smoke shop and I go inside and find this drink I completely forgot about. I was so excited. I'm a nerd, wow that's bad.

Taste- After absolute zero I thought this would taste just like it after seeing its sugar free. Took a sip expecting what I thought but I was way off, this drink barely tastes sugar free, like you would never know and its got some cool chilling effect too it. A+ indeed!

RATING-10/10

Buzz- The only nitrous now that says extra strength. So does it? lets find out. But surprisingly no! This drink has less than half of the blend on the other nitrous drinks. plus no yerba mate. 2600 mgs taurine, ginseng, l-carnitine, caffeine, gaurana, inositol, glucuronolactone and maltidextrin. plus 200% rda vit B2,3,6 and 12.

Long haul:berry blast

2010-12-03T20:22:00.000-08:00

Ive heard a lot of crazy things about this drink, so I was crazy enough to drive an hour on the freeway to the truck stop that I heard sold it with my piece of shit car that is about to break down. And yeah I made a wrong turn and had to drive forever out of my way to get back on low gas.

Taste- Maybe a berry red bull? Its got the energy drink taste (which would be red bull) but with some berry flavor, so if you think a berry red bull sounds nice that's what this is like. Although its probably not as good as you would think.

RATING-7/10

Buzz- This guy that I worked with said he had this at 12 am and could fall asleep till 7 so I was expecting something strong and this is made for truckers so you would think it would be potent. I was running on three hours of sleep (well I still am) drank the mutha fxcker and it didn't really do shit. I had some shock coffee about an hour before and that did the trick but not this really. Okay lets see whats in it.100% RDA vitamin B3, 5 ,6 and 12. 860 mgs taurine, kola nut, green tea, green coffee (?) blueberry extract, ginseng, pomegranate and lutein. Yeah I don't see how that did it for him. Maybe it was all in his mind.

Frs:apricot nectarine

2010-12-01T19:56:00.000-08:00

Best thing about these drinks, the color.

Taste- Its been about a year since Ive seen a new flavor from frs so should I be expecting something miraculous? Probably not. Closest thing I could compare it to for you would be a more flavorful airborne mix (its funny how those got banned). It grows on you while drinking and looking at the can there is only 15% juice so its pretty decent but nothing like pure rich apricot juice if that's what you were thinking.

RATING-6/10

Buzz- The main highlight of these drinks would be quercetin a anti oxidant found in fruits like blueberries and raspberries. Except one can of this is equel to 3 servings of blueberries (325 mgs), not bad. also has catechins; a flavinoid antioxidant found in green tea that can cleanse the body and give energy. In addition 130% rda of all b vitamins and 260% of vitamin c. Oh almost forgot 45 mgs caffeine just for laughs. Oh and almost forgot again 39 IU vitamin e.

I love middle class drinks, that's the only word I can really think of to describe these cool looking drinks that are pretty damn tasty and also have a nice ingredient list but never find their way to the big top.

Taste- Fruity pebbles made with sucralose. My first one I really enjoyed when I was on the run, the second I sat down and relaxed while drinking it and it was a little too harsh to enjoy fully. Different flavor than orange but a very nice sugar free addition.

Not all all the time but usually you can tell by just looking at a can, this ones going to be a winner. What a sweet name for a cola drink.

Taste- very similar to Pepsi throwback, most likely because they both use plain ol' sugar. This one has a little more fizz which I enjoy. As it says on the can "spiced and smooth" that's what you want in a cola and that's what this has. Very nice.. for a cola at least.

RATING-8.5/10

Buzz- 5 more mgs of caffeine than a can of mountain dew, 25 more than a can of coke, 30 more than a can of Pepsi, as much as a can of Dr pepper. So can you guess it? Yea 65, pretty wimpy for calling yourself an energy cola. Also has 100% rda vitamin c for decoration.

Haha got eggnog in the pic this time, how ironic. I notice I'm always more on the negative side on energy drinks, so when company's send me drinks don't think I'm at all bias.

Taste- You cant really judge latte drinks that much. Most taste the same unless I was to drink them side by side. These drinks seem cheap, or at least look cheap, but i know they changed up their can design recently. It doesn't taste cheap exactly but its nothing spectacular. I seemed to enjoy the mocha one better.

Since Christmas is heading our way I thought it would be a great idea to make a egg nog energy drink, but I don't really have a way to, so some company out there take that idea into consideration.

Taste-Just a blah espresso taste, and with things like coconut oil, corn syrup, sodium caseinate and dipotassium phosphate you can really tell its not all that fancy. Or you could just tell by the can. It doesn't have the bitter taste or awful after taste that a lot of coffee drinks do but it would be on par also with its average mocha flavor.

Guayaki yerba mate:enlighten mint

2010-10-15T09:44:00.000-07:00

I was never one of those people who live to preserve nature, but some of the products those people come out with are pretty interesting.

Taste-If you have ever had mint green tea this is similar except with a lemon taste. But that "lemon taste" is really the bitterness from the yerba mate. Sweeteners used are organic cane sugar and organic honey. You can only get so far with organic things, so most are pretty boring.

RATING-6/10

Buzz-Well obviously this drink is all about yerba mate. I'm not sure how much is in here but I can tell you its a lot considering you can taste it and its the second ingredient. Besides that we have 150 mgs naturally occurring caffeine. Yerba mate is made from leaves in south America and according to the ache guayaki tribe it has powerful rejuvenating effects.
