Monster Extra Strength Nitrous Super Dry
October 31st, 2015Possibly going for a record in drink name length, this nitrogen infused energy drink is pretty good. It’s in a larger can than average (355ml) and tastes like a smoother version of regular Monster. The bubbles are somewhat smaller, giving it a less abrasive carbonated feel. I assume the smaller bubbles are caused by the use of nitrogenated water (not nitrous oxide because that wouldn’t be too good for you, or indeed help you stay awake). The energy hit is pretty massive too and this has to go down as one of the top drinks on this site for that alone. Sweet, calorific, and packing a punch.

No Limit
October 24th, 2015No, no, no-no, no, no, no-no, no, no, no-no, THERE’S NO LIMIT… etc. Nice, fruity, fizzy, and in a can aimed at a market that only the manufacturer could identify. I guess it’s for the adrenaline loving pink-fluffy dressing female and male market? Yeah, I’m not too sure, but I liked the drink anyhow.

POSI+IV – Peach and Lime
October 17th, 2015Peach and Lime should never be combined. Ever. It just doesn’t work, and what you end up with is some sort of drink that doesn’t know if it’s supposed to be sharp, sour, sweet, or bitter. It’s the taste equivalent of mixing all of your paints together to get brown.

Spartan Original Zero
October 10th, 2015Pretty much the same as the full fat edition, it tastes like No Fear, which is not a bad thing at all. A nice large can of a nice low calorie drink.

Epic Energy
October 3rd, 2015It took me ages to open this can, and I had to use a screwdriver in the end. The re-sealable opening on the can is way too difficult to open, at least it was on the can that I purchased anyway. The branding on the can is premium quality, with a matt effect label, and the drink itself is okay (a clone) but nothing special. Very sweet, but let down by the daft and fiddly opening.

Black Vitamin Energy Blueberry
September 26th, 2015There’s no official value on the can for caffeine content, hence I’ve guessed it at being as low as possible. This is branded as being a health drink, containing natural pick-me-ups such as guarana, magnesium, vitamin B6 and others. It tastes okay too so far as health-branded drinks go, but that’ll probably be because of all the sugar (not so healthy after all!).
Tantrum – Bloodorange
September 19th, 2015It’s like a sherbet orange flavoured drink in a bright pink can. The writing on the can is predominantly in German, and even Google Translate struggles with the tag-line of “Die Limo Mit Bums”, which apparently means “The Limo With Bums”… I’m sure that’s not correct. It’s a nice drink though, something a bit different, and it gets extra points for calling itself Tantrum in what appears to be a non-ironic way.

POSI+IV – Strawberry and Lime
September 12th, 2015I had high hopes for this, but it turns out that strawberry and lime do NOT go together that well – in this instance at least. It was like a badly mixed cocktail.

Tropicana Energy – Mango and Guava
August 29th, 2015It’s just a shot of caffeinated fruit juice. I don’t much like fruit juice, so I found this horrific, but if you are after a caffeine perk without the usual energy drink flavour then this is for you. I’d be surprised if you could tell the difference between this drink and a regular juice drink.
