KX Cola
December 13th, 2014What a pleasant little cola drink. It’s not too sickly, it’s not too strong. It’s just a nice caffeinated cola. So much better than I’d expected from the KX range of drinks to be honest.

Mixxed Up: Tropical
December 6th, 2014Just another tropical drink. It’s sweet and goes down easily, no tart aftertaste or anything, but quite bland overall.
Oshee Vitamin Energy Formula: Vitamins + Minerals
November 29th, 2014It’s original alright – it doesn’t appear to have any added caffeine over the guarana extract. It tastes okay, it has no strange side effects, but it doesn’t give you the expected energy kick. It has tons of sugar in, so is not really aimed at the health conscious either which begs the question: just who is this drink aimed at anyway?

Mixxed Up: Lime
November 22nd, 2014I do love my lime/lemon/citrus flavoured drinks. Usually they’re the most refreshing and enjoyable of all the flavours. This one, I have to admit was nice, I think. I drank it almost absent minded and it wasn’t until I’d finished the can that I suddenly wondered what it tasted like. Having said that, it must have been okay because I’m sure I’d have noticed if it weren’t – but by the same evidence it also didn’t stand out either.
Monster Ultra Red
November 15th, 2014This was brought back from the USA by a friend especially for me, so I feel privileged! It’s completely calorie free, yet you couldn’t tell that from the taste. It’s part of a triple Ultra series of Monster Energy drinks which include a White and Blue edition too. This Red edition tastes like a mixture of strawberries and raspberries and is really rather refreshing. It’s certainly worth a go if you can find a can.

Relentless Origin Ultra
November 8th, 2014Considerably better than Relentless Origin. It doesn’t suffer from that odd brewed taste of its full fat cousin, and is overall much more palatable. It’s still a bit watery, and not the best Relentless in the range, but it is low in calories. Choose this over regular Origin.

Liquid Lightning
November 1st, 2014Forget lightning, this is like liquid marzipan. I love it, it’s so different to anything I’ve tried before and it has quite a caffeine hit to it too. This was another import from America, so you’re unlikely to see it in the UK unless your local import shop finds it for you.
Boost Energy Orange and Mango
October 18th, 2014It’s a middle of the road tropical drink. I managed to drink the whole can, so that means it wasn’t too sour or sharp. It was, however, very sickly, and a large 500ml can like this was far too much in one go.
Big Up Power Fruit Punch
October 11th, 2014Never underestimate the power to big up yourself. Well, at least that’s what it says on the can. This fruit punch flavoured drink is quite nice actually. Checking out the web site shows that this drink is also available in original and ginger flavours, but I haven’t found them in the shops yet. There marketing also appears to be all about alcohol, with mixer suggestions available for each flavour.
