Monster: Rehab - Protean

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.

RTD 51: Mocha Blast

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.
