3D Candy Punch

September 23rd, 2023

Cherry! 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, 2023

I 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, 2023

Much 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.

Protein Dynamix Mixed Berry

July 1st, 2023

It’s a nice looking can, matt silver with a nice simple design. But, it’s a quite bitter and strong flavoured drink that’s like a strong mixed berry squash.

Boost Juic’d Mango and Tropical Blitz

June 24th, 2023

The 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.

Braw Energy Red Cherry

May 27th, 2023

The second Braw flavour I’ve discovered. Like the Blue Raspberry one, the can is glossy black with a paper label stuck to it – quite smart but unusual. Flavour-wise it doesn’t kick you in the face, but the artificial cherry is quite nice and balanced just right. A pretty good drink for the budget price I paid (89p I think).

Rockstar Refresh Strawberry and Lime

May 6th, 2023

I know that strawberry and lime is a popular combination now, but I’m not sure I get it. I love lime. I love strawberry. But, together? It’s not unpleasant but you end up with it tasting of neither, just a mush of strawberry lime hints in a general fruity drink. Look, the drink is ok, it’s refreshing, but I’m just not sure that strawberry and lime is up there with the killer combos of tomato and basil, or chocolate and orange. Not that you’d want either of those from an energy drink of course.

Rubicon Raw Pineapple and Passion Fruit

April 29th, 2023

It’s just a really sugary tasting tropical energy drink. Loads of it, gives you quite a fruity rush I guess and it’s not bad tasting, but it really isn’t anything special.

Bang Cherry Blade Lemonade

April 22nd, 2023

Wow, there’s a lot of caffeine in this drink! It kept me awake perfectly while on holiday exploring the busy sights of New York. Cherry Blade Lemonade. I get cherry. I get Lemonade. I don’t get blade… not sure what that is all about really. I was a bit disappointed with the flavour to be honest because I was expecting a citrus drink with a slight tang of cherry. It was quite synthetic in my opinion… packed a punch though.
