Red Rooster Mojito

July 11th, 2015

This is the second mojito flavoured drink I’ve discovered, the first being ‘Black – Mojito’. Red Rooster have managed to do it properly though. Black Mojito suffered from the small problem of tasting nasty, I think they may have over minted their mix. You can still taste mint in Red Rooster Mojito, but it’s tempered somewhat and the sweetness from the lime is main flavour.

Source Sugar Free Strawberry and Lime

March 7th, 2015

It’s very different, and it’s sugar free. Light, refreshing, and enjoyable, but it didn’t give me much of a wake-up kick for some reason.

Mixxed Up: Lime

November 22nd, 2014

I do love my lime/lemon/citrus flavoured drinks. Usually they’re the most refreshing and enjoyable of all the flavours. This one, I have to admit was nice, I think. I drank it almost absent minded and it wasn’t until I’d finished the can that I suddenly wondered what it tasted like. Having said that, it must have been okay because I’m sure I’d have noticed if it weren’t – but by the same evidence it also didn’t stand out either.

LSV Citrus Blast

August 15th, 2013

Another string to the LSV bow, this time it’s citrus. Specifically, it tastes like lime and quite a strong mix of lime flavour too. Nice, but in large quantities I’d imagine it to be very sickly. If they did a sugar-free version of this drink though I’d drink it loads more because I enjoyed it.

Pit Bull Cherry and Lime

July 3rd, 2013

I’m really not convinced on the combination of cherry and lime in this drink. The cherry flavour comes through, but it someone severely soured by the lime making it quite a bitter experience. Having tried the original Pit Bull, I could sense a theme as the underlying taste of the original was evident in this drink too, however I don’think it works as a mixer with other ingredients. Still, there are other Pit Bull cocktails to try and they could turn out to be wonderful so I shall withhold my judgement on this brand until then. Personally, I won’t be trying this again because there are many more nicer tasting drinks out there.

Lucozade Revive – Strawberry and Lime

June 29th, 2013

The strawberry and lime combination don’t work for me. The strawberry suffers from the sharpness of the lime, and the lime suffers from the chewy flavour of strawberry. There’s also not enough caffeine in this to be of any use in quenching my caffeine addiction so it’s little more than a thirst quencher. Original in flavour, I’ll give it points for that, but the execution isn’t as nice as the bottle looks. *Note, I’ve estimated the caffeine content as the product contains too little for them to mark it as high and state the actual content.

Black Energy Mojito

May 15th, 2013

It tastes like hedge. I don’t think that any energy drink should ever contain mint as an ingredient. Mint and lime to be specific, but you really can’t taste the lime. Avoid, avoid, avoid – it’s very original but for a good reason, it tastes minging.

Rip It – Lime Wrecker

April 7th, 2012

I had been looking forward to this flavour, saving it for a special moment. I was a little disappointed. That isn’t to say that this isn’t a nice drink because it really is, but I was expecting something a little more refreshing whereas Lime Wrecker tastes more like someone has poured lime cordial in to lemonade. It was good, but not as I’d expected. It did wake me up quickly though given the high caffeine and sugar content but for me it was a little on the sickly side. If you don’t appreciate food colourings then this may be the Rip It for you – it was almost clear with only a very faint green tint to it.
