Monster Energy Ultra Punk Punch

June 13th, 2026

This is essentially quite a light tasting tropical energy drink. It’s slightly tangy, much less full-on in taste than their original Ripper flavour. It’s not too sweet, but also a bit meh overall, sorry to disappoint! Ok as a one off, I probably wouldn’t rush to get it again, not because it’s bad, just because it’s nothing unique or new.

Frugo Energy Mango

May 23rd, 2026

It’s a nice smooth tropical flavoured drink in some crazy cool artwork-laden can. A bit expensive for what it is – it’s certainly not premium tasting, but there’s nothing wrong with it other than it being a bit lower in caffeine content than most other brands.

Frugo Energy Watermelon and Strawberry

May 16th, 2026

Pretty nice! You can taste the watermelon, but it’s subtly against the much stronger strawberry. Sweet, no bitterness at all, and smooth. I’d be happy getting this one again that’s for sure but it is on the lower side of strength in terms of caffeine content.

X Energy Drink Sugar Free

March 7th, 2026

Pick a letter, X will do, that looks cool, and stick the words “Energy Drink” after it. That’s a winning brand name of course! The drink is a clone of course, but a very light and delicate one. It’s carbonated, but there wasn’t much of a hiss when I opened the can and the carbonation is very slight. The flavour isn’t strong, but it is quite nice and sweet. Worth a try for certain, but it might not become a staple of your diet! (which reminds me, it’s low calorie too!)

FruttaMax Thunder Max Energy Drink Syrup Original Zero

February 21st, 2026

This is another concentrated energy drink for use with SodaStream machine and is the sugar-free version of the already lower-than-normal in calories full fat version I reviewed previously. Make it up in a ratio of 1:23 with fizzy water and you should get an energy drink with 32mg/100ml. Compared to the full fat version, this version is slightly tangy in flavour, slightly more sour, but still a very nice bog standard energy drink – refreshing and drinkable!

Body Fuel Ultimate Pre-Workout: Frozen Popsicle

November 22nd, 2025

A massively potent blue raspberry drink! The flavour is strong and the caffeine is strong so be cautious and limit yourself to no more than one can (of this and anything else!) in a day. It’s refreshing and sweet so great for a warm summer’s day.

Body Fuel Ultimate Pre-Workout: Strawberry Lemonade

November 15th, 2025

Extremely moreish! But be warned, this is packed full of caffeine so drink slowly and make sure you have no other caffeine in the same day because this is a pre-workout drink which is the equivalent of over two cans of Red Bull. It’s a great mixture of lemon and strawberry and very refreshing.

SCI-MX Xplode: Atomic Passion

November 1st, 2025

I have absolutely no idea what flavour this is! There’s a slight tang to it, maybe a bit tropical – I would guess from the name that it might be passion fruit but I’m not certain that’s the main flavour. It doesn’t matter anyway because it’s actually a really nice and refreshing fruity drink! As with other pre-workout drinks, drink with caution because it’s very high in caffeine.

Body Fuel Ultimate Pre-Workout: Cosmic Candy

October 25th, 2025

Another very high caffeine-content pre-workout drink so consume responsibly. “Cosmic Candy” is the flavour of this drink and the can has little wrapped sweets drawn all over it. The problem is candy doesn’t tend to be “candy” flavoured, that’s not a thing! Candy/sweets are normally specific flavours themselves, like lemon or lime or orange or something. This drink is basically mixed fruit flavoured. It’s very nice don’t get me wrong, and I’d love to know the actual flavourings used, but it’s like a mixture between summer fruits and forest fruits I’d guess. An interesting drink…
