Another ‘health’ drink, this time containing magnesium in addition to the guarana. And, once again, it is packed full of sugar so immediately fails the healthy test. This particular variety of the Oshee Vitamin Energy family is tropical flavoured. It’s quite a strong and sickly tropical flavour at that too, but if you like fruity drinks then you may enjoy it.

I wasn’t too fussed about this one. Again, it’s just like Ribena in an energy drink can. I found it too sickly, and the fact that I had to buy 6 cans in order to try it meant that I had 5 cans left over to get rid of.
A nice budget sugar free energy drink. Absolutely nothing special about it, but it was cheap, tasted okay, and does the job of satisfying those energy cravings. Not as sweet as the full fat version, but just right overall.

Not so sour, but still quite nice. It’s just a fizzy cherry flavoured energy drink. I enjoyed it, but probably won’t buy it again. What I really want to see from drinks manufacturers is a properly sour energy drink. I want one that makes me pull my gums back over my teeth that it’s so sour. I’d buy a whole case of those!
I think I may be becoming used to the taste of cranberries. Normally, I tend to rate these drinks lower than tropical ones, but in this case it’s not too bad. That’s as good a compliment as I’m willing to give the drink though. It’s sweet, flavoured, and cheap. There are better flavours in the range though, and the sugar free original flavour one is still one of my favourites.
What 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.

Just another tropical drink. It’s sweet and goes down easily, no tart aftertaste or anything, but quite bland overall.
It’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?

I 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.
