Red Bull – The Blue Edition (2013) Blueberry

March 2nd, 2013

Red Bull are full of surprises. I thought this would be my favourite of the three new editions. As it happens it isn’t – it’s good, don’t get me wrong on that, but it was a tad too sharp to be my favourite. So far, the Red edition is holding first place. The drink is tart and fruity, but very sweet. Slightly too sickly if I’m being honest but it still gives you the standard Red Bull kick. It tastes premium and is a good fit in the Red Bull range – I can’t say it’s all that original because I’ve tried blueberry energy drinks from the US before and it’s pretty similar to those.

Rockstar Xdurance

December 10th, 2011

I really do like Rockstar Energy Drinks! They’re just so different each time. Whereas with Monster, you get the Monster taste sneaking through in whichever flavour you purchase, with Rockstar they’ve managed to make each one individual. Xdurance very lightly carbonated but not flat, and tastes of blueberries. It’s a very different flavour and I was quite excited to have found it in a tiny newsagents near where I live. It’s jam packed full of caffeine and calories and tastes amazing with added pomegranate and acai for fun. I did at first think it might have been the world’s first counterfit energy drink until I looked it up on Rockstar’s web site, because of a typo on the can (see the image below). “Rockstar Xdurance is Dfsigned to give you…” yes, it’s dfsigned not designed… oh well.
