Emerge Active8 Water: Blood Orange and Berry
November 25th, 2017A really tasty orange flavoured drink. Lightly carbonated and not too strong at all in terms of its flavour. Again, like the Yuzu variety, it’s balanced just right and quite refreshing.

Moose Juice: Berry
October 28th, 2017I generally like the berry energy drinks – each one tends to taste very different depending on which berry they’ve chosen to base it around. In this instance I was quite surprised – I think it’s like a sherbet cherry flavour. It’s really sweet and tangy, and very nice especially on the scorching hot day I tried it on. It has a slightly higher caffeine content than most drinks, and also includes the body-builder’s favourite BCAAs if you like that sort of thing.

Spike Shooter
May 27th, 2017This drink is dangerous! Pay careful attention to the caffeine content labelled on the can and the associated warning text. A regular can of Red Bull contains 32mg of caffeine per 100ml of drink, Spike contains more than three times that amount making this a very potent cocktail. Ok, so it genuinely has zero calories, but there is a warning on the can advising you to drink just half a can in order to assess your tolerance to it. It *will* wake you up, and in my case give you a headache which is unusual for me! I followed the instructions, consuming half a can first, waiting about 8 hours before having the rest and I’d suggest anyone else trying this drink also be cautious. It does taste pretty good though – it’s a smooth mixed berry flavour from what I can tell and it’s balanced about right.

Emerge – Juicy Berry
May 7th, 2016Yeah I’m pretty sure that Emerge re-brand every week. I can’t keep up with their ‘Dual’ or not ‘Dual’ or whatever branding, and now it appears they have taken their berry flavour and just called it Juicy Berry. I don’t think this is a new drink, but it’s got a new name.
Mixxed Up: Berry
January 24th, 2015I 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.
KX Still Red Berry Sugar Free
July 12th, 2014Very, very watery! I think there’s a reason that most fruity energy drinks are carbonated, and that’s because without those bubbles tingling your nerve endings you just don’t get much flavour out of the drink at all. It’s like a very weak berry flavoured squash. Probably better for drinking if you’re about to do some strenuous exertion of some sorts, but other than that it’s not up to much.

Nutri1st 3in1 Sports Drink Berry
May 14th, 2014Infinitly better than the Orange variety of this drink, as in it didn’t make me feel sick. It really does just taste like slightly fruity still water. Okay, so it’s got a tiny amount of protein in it, but it’s not worth the money in my opinion so just buy a protein bar and a can of Red Bull instead.
KX Red Berry Sugar Free
April 2nd, 2014Just as with the ordinary KX Red Berry, it’s very strong and overpowering. Not to my taste but it is pretty original.

LSV Juiced Mixed Berry
February 26th, 2014Cheap and naff, to be honest. A non-descript blackcurrant flavour, a little sharp for my liking. It’s an obvious attempt to jump on the flavoured energy drink market. Step 1) choose between tropical, orange, berry, citrus. Step 2) Sell new flavour. It’s not original and I hope these brands start to innovate a bit more in future.
