Rockstar: Xdurance

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

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.

Amazon: lo cal

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.

RATING-2/10

Buzz- 80 mgs natural caffeine from green tea and 200 mgs vitamin C. Lame!

Spike: 'Quila Lime review by Nick


This truly is 'Hardcore Energy' but, it comes a hardcore price of $3. I've never seen an energy drink with more warnings on it. Spike is one of the best, in terms of energy, that's for sure.

Taste
- All spikes have this unique flavor to them; this flavor is the taste of power, I'm serious, Spike just tastes powerful. I'm not sure how else to describe it. This one has a pretty strong lime flavor and since I really like lime, I really liked this taste. 'Quila Lime is definitely the best flavor of Spike. It's worth a try.
RATING - 9/10

Buzz - This blend if of the chain, son! This teeny little can has 300mg of caffiene, 1,500 mcgs of B12, and a 1,057 mg energy blend. Some people think that Wired X505 is hardcore but, just two of these cans, which would be 16oz, would have 600mg of caffeine! If Spike had a Wired X505 size can, it would have 900 mgs of caffeine! Spike is a beast, hands down. I can't give this a 10 because even though this drink is intense, it can't be compared to verve.
RATING - 9.9/10

Ace: Lo-Cal review by Nick


One of my favorites; it REALLY sucks that this company failed. All their drinks tasted good, had good energy blends, and hot chicks on the cover...what could be better than that? Why must the good die young?!

Taste
- This is a great and unique flavor; it is similar to Monster Lo-carb but it is also very different; my brother says it tastes a lot like Lost Perfect 10. They pulled off the lo-cal (not to be confused with sugar free) perfectly. Since they kept some of the calories and sugar, the taste was left unharmed; if you take out all of the sugar, the drink usually has a really strong diet flavor to it. Ace's taste is actually one of my favorite NRG drink tastes, which is why i like Ace so much.
RATING - 8.5/10

Buzz - Good blend here, similar to Monster's but not as br00tal. The buzz is still far above average. Pull the Ace.
RATING - 7/10
