Monster Assault<br>Taste Rating: 5/5<br>Originality Score: 5/5<br>Caffeine: 32mg/100ml<br>Calories: 45.7 kCal/100ml<br>Purchased from: BP Petrol Station, Barcelona<br>I'm told that this is a standard issue energy drink in the US, but in the UK you can't get hold of it. I found this in Spain so jumped at the chance of trying it without paying extortionate money to import a can. It's really good! It tastes like fruit punch with a whole load of caramel in, and possibly a dash of cola in the background somewhere too. Whatever the flavour ingredients are (I don't know, the can was in Spanish), they clearly work well together. I didn't get the usual synthetic Monster flavour that is so prominent with this brand in this drink either which is a plus-point in my opinion.

<strong>Update 2021-09-23:</strong> Obviously since I first reviewed this drink over seven years ago, it has been available in the UK for quite a while. They have now updated the can design too, so I've updated the image on this review too. I am also now very certain that this is basically a cola flavoured drink.<br><br>#energydrink #energydrinks #Cola #Guarana #LargeCan #MixedFruit #Spain #UK
