Blue Charge Diet Lemon and Elderflower

June 20th, 2015

Light and refreshing but not much of a kick. It’s quite low in caffeine but the light lemon flavour is just right making it a pleasant experience.

No Fear Citrus Storm

March 28th, 2015

I found this drink in Carrefour in Spain, complete with a UK price marked can and Spanish nutrition stickers. It was quite nice, but a bit too sweet if comparing it to other lemon/lime energy drinks. I’d place it somewhere in the middle, but Relentless probably has the lead at the moment in the citrus drinks league table. But having said that, it was perfectly adequate overall.

Boost Energy Sugar Free Pink Lemonade

February 14th, 2015

This drink reminds me of holidays in Ireland. Pink lemonade is everywhere there, and this particular variant is really nice and refreshing. Drink it as cold as possible though – even slightly warm and it starts to get sickly.

Amp Energy Lightning

July 17th, 2013

If you’ve tried Rockstar Recovery then you’ll find Amp Energy Lightning quite similar. It’s obviously tuned a lot more to the American market being sweeter, more syrupy, and stronger in flavour, but it’s a still drink with a lot of energy to give. I like this a lot and it’s my favourite of all the Amp Energy range.

Lucozade Energy Lemon

May 18th, 2013

Wow! This makes a change to the usually watery tasting Lucozade Energy products. The taste of lemon is sweet, strong, tangy and refreshing making this possibly the best tasting Lucozade in the range. The lemon flavour is similar to the taste of a traditional lemonade – possibly on the synthetic side, but pretty much nailing an ideal balance. Strength-wise, most of the kick in this drink comes from the sugar, as you can see from the very high calorie content but low caffeine content. This does mean that you may end up with a head-ache and feeling a bit groggy a few hours later but I reckon it’s worth the downer for the occasional treat…

Lucozade Sport Elite Citrus

May 1st, 2013

Brilliant! I have missed this drink – it used to be called Lucozade Fuel+Focus and it was my running drink of choice. Non-carbonated, sweet lemon flavour, and caffeine too, it was brilliant to keep you going. Thankfully they’ve brought it back and rebranded it as Lucozade Sport Elite (Citrus… there’s also an Orange version).

Monster Rehab: Tea + Lemonade + Energy

March 17th, 2012

This drink surprised me: it didn’t have the usual Monster flavour that I was expecting. Being non-carbonated, it shares more in common with some of the Rockstar drinks instead, but is still very nice. It mostly tasted like still lemonade, but did have a note of tea about it even if it was very faint. There’s nothing else out there on the market quite like this, so full marks for originality, but I am a little disappointed that it didn’t jump out as being a Monster Energy drink from the taste.

Lucozade Alert Plus Shot

January 7th, 2012

A very sour lemon tastingĀ  shot, but it does wake you up. It’s also sugar free as standard which is unusual given thatĀ Lucozade products are normally quite high in sugar and calories. The sugar isn’t missed though because you get the energy hit quickly and it lasts for a few hours making this quite an effective shot.

Rockstar Recovery

August 29th, 2011

It’s not fizzy, but it does indeed wake you up. This drink is like no other energy drink. It tastes amazing in my opinion – like traditional lemonade. There’s none of the Rockstar flavouring from their other drinks. It’s non-carbonated and very sweet, and it goes down really easy. Full marks for originality and taste here, plus with it being a large can I’m sure it’ll hold a place near the top of the overall score chart for a long time.
