Rockstar: Recovery - Tea & Lemonade

These drinks came out of nowhere. I had just seen one picture last week of the bubbleberry one and totally forgot about it and them BAM! I see these at a ghetto ass gas station.

Taste-I believe this is their take on monster rehab's drink so lets see how it compares. The rockstar iced evidently fell through (I don't know why, it was better than this) and this came out. It has more of a tea taste than monsters which can be a good or bad thing because more flavor is always better but not when it tastes like nestea lemon pre mix. You can tell this isn't the real deal and its not as refreshing as monsters rehab. It isn't bad and if you like nestea's powder mix and you always make it with an extra scoop you will love this because it is the same thing in a nutshell. Also this is sugar free of course so I cant give it too much hate.

RATING-7.5/10

Buzz-Rockstar always changes it up with their drinks, but its never really ever better. This recovery drink has 1000 mgs taurine compared to 100 in the other drinks. 100 mgs caffeine compared to 80 in the other drinks 120 mgs ginseng compared to 25 in the other drinks and 25 mgs milk thistle. All 4 of your B vitamins Some electrolytes and no prickly pear. Not bad, I'm liking the amount of ginseng, taurine and just the right amount of caffeine for a "sports" energy drink. Still nothing compared to rehabs. Sorry rockstar, no matter how hard you try you will never beat monster.

Rockstar:recovery-orange

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.

Rockstar:recovery-grape

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.

Rockstar:recovery-lemonade

This new rockstar is sure to grab you're attention with the awesome bright yellow can with the black and red top. I believe I already know what the next rockstar is going to be, Ive heard rumors about a green apple rockstar! So look for that.

Taste-Hardcore lemonade Gatorade style. A little too full bodied and flavorful to be a great thirst quencher but I'm sure you guys will drink this for other reasons. But for only 10 calories this drink kicks some ass!

RATING-9/10

Buzz-Rockstar went a different rout that I think most other major companies and going to go. Hydration + recovery seems to be at the peek of popularity. Rockstar added some awesome ingredients like prickly pear, n-acetyl cystaline and electrolytes. 20 mgs milk thistle. 25 mgs pickly pear extract and n-acetyl crystaline. 50 mgs ginseng. 80 mgs caffeine. 1000 mgs taurine. 15 mgs vitB12. 2 mgs vitB6. 10 mgs vitB5 and 20 mgs vitB3. Sadly there isnt enough of those great ingredients as there should be.
