Dark Thunder Ultra Berry
November 25th, 2023I’m wondering if this ‘ultra berry’ flavour replaces the ‘berry boost’ variety? It’s been so long since I tried berry boost that I can’t remember quite what it was like. I described it in my review as ‘like a mixture of strawberry and raspberry’, so perhaps Ultra Berry is a very different flavour. It’s more like a mixed berry, but on the sweet and summery side – I got blackcurrent in there, maybe some cherry and raspberry too.

Prime Energy Ice Pop
November 18th, 2023It tastes exactly like the non-caffeinated version – mostly like sugary sweet cherry fizzy stuff. Maybe there’s other flavours in there too apart from cherry, like if you took a bag of Haribo, melted it down and tried to drink the mix of sugary random fruity fizzy gunk. It’s nice, not that refreshing given its overpowering sweetness, but certainly original.

Dark Thunder Ultra Violet
November 11th, 2023A really nice and smooth grape-flavoured energy drink. It’s lower in caffeine than many other large-can drinks, which I think is no bad thing really. You get to enjoy the drink for longer without getting too jittery by the end! The flavour isn’t too strong, but very smooth as I said and no bitterness at all. A great addition to Aldi’s line of Monster-wannabee drinks.

Applied Nutrition BCAA Amino-Hydrate – Cloudy Lemonade
October 28th, 2023Yup, it’s cloudy lemonade. There’s a slight craggy aftertaste from the sweeteners but apart from that it’s a nice classic lemonade flavour. Slightly tangy taste, on the bitter rather than sweet side but nice and unique.

3D Candy Punch
September 23rd, 2023Cherry! In fact I drank this can the day after I tried Prime Energy Tropical and I’d have to say it’s exactly the same flavour. It’s a sweet and strong synthetic cherry flavoured drink. There’s a lot of it, and I chilled it again half-way through just to keep it at optimal drinking temperature, but I enjoyed it.

3D Citrus Mist
September 9th, 2023I found this being sold at what looked like an American import pop-up shop in Cardiff and grabbed both flavours on offer. However, on closer inspection of the can whilst this is an American brand, it’s actually made in the UK for distribution here! It looks like the flavours available here in the UK are a little different to those in the US – this one is called Citrus Mist but according to their web site it’s called Citrus Dew in the US. Anyway, it’s really nice! A gentle and very refreshing lemon flavour in a large can, and it doesn’t tire the senses by getting too sickly. The balance of quantity and flavour is perfect and they’ve managed to create one of my favourite energy drinks in a while. It’s really in contrast to the strong, punchy and sickly flavours of the Prime Energy drinks that I’m also trying at the moment!

Protein Dynamix Tropical
July 8th, 2023Much like the mixed berry flavour of this drink, it’s quite sharp and bitter. If you like that sort of thing then you will like this drink! It’s a strong flavour too, not too watery, so you get a real tang on your tongue from it.

Boost Juic’d Mango and Tropical Blitz
June 24th, 2023The two best features of this drink are the price (£1) and the name. Boost Juic’d. I can forgive the pointless apostrophe because of the way the name rolls off the tongue. Boostjoooooced. It is just a fancily branded sugar-laden tropical energy drink though. Ok in its way, but it is just a tropical flavoured drink.
Relentless Zero Watermelon
June 17th, 2023A nice mild-flavoured watermelon drink. Not too sweet or sickly, just gently fruity and easy to drink.
