Monster Ultra Sunrise

November 7th, 2015

Orange flavoured, I think. It’s a really light and fresh flavour, which is definitely in the citrus zone. It’s very much like a flavoured water which makes it refreshing and thirst quenching. With zero calories, it’s also less likely to damage your diet too. Probably the most unusual thing about this drink though is the textured can. While you are drinking it, the nobbly bobbly lumps all over the can give you quite a good grip on it and certainly assure you of a quality product.

Tantrum – Bloodorange

September 19th, 2015

It’s like a sherbet orange flavoured drink in a bright pink can. The writing on the can is predominantly in German, and even Google Translate struggles with the tag-line of “Die Limo Mit Bums”, which apparently means “The Limo With Bums”… I’m sure that’s not correct. It’s a nice drink though, something a bit different, and it gets extra points for calling itself Tantrum in what appears to be a non-ironic way.

Duff Energy Drink

April 11th, 2015

Given the brand of this energy drink, does anyone really care what it tastes like?? Well, I guess if you’re not just buying it for a souvenir can then you may wish to know… it tastes like orange Lucozade. That’s all! It’s obviously a lot higher in caffeine but lower in sugar than Lucozade, but the flavour is near identical. If Barney drank this he wouldn’t speak so slowly.

Oshee Vitamin Energy Formula: Vitamins + Minerals

November 29th, 2014

It’s original alright – it doesn’t appear to have any added caffeine over the guarana extract. It tastes okay, it has no strange side effects, but it doesn’t give you the expected energy kick. It has tons of sugar in, so is not really aimed at the health conscious either which begs the question: just who is this drink aimed at anyway?

Boost Energy Orange and Mango

October 18th, 2014

It’s a middle of the road tropical drink. I managed to drink the whole can, so that means it wasn’t too sour or sharp. It was, however, very sickly, and a large 500ml can like this was far too much in one go.

Nutri1st 3in1 Sports Drink Orange

April 26th, 2014

It’s a clever idea – jump on the bandwagon of protein drinks by producing an energy drink with added protein. The 3in1 on the bottle refers to the combination of protein, carbohydrates and caffiene, and the drink is clearly marketed at the gym-going type. The taste, sadly, is not up to scratch. The orange is very bitter and not at all refreshing. If I were drinking this after a gym session, it wouldn’t help my stomach at all. Also if it’s protein you are after then you should probably go for an actual protein shake or protein bar – this drink contains less than 2g of protein.

Rockstar Juiced – Mango, Orange, Passion Fruit

April 12th, 2014

It might list the fruits on the can, but it really is just a tropical flavour energy drink. Sweet, fruity, mildly refreshing but mostly a bit too sickly for my liking. I still prefer the more artificial flavour of Monster Ripper if you’re going to go down the tropical route.

Euro Shopper Energy Drink Tropical Orange

November 12th, 2013

For only 39p it’s not too bad. More orangy than tropically I’d say, but still a little on the sharp side for my liking. It’s obviously a budget drink and both the can design and taste reflect that, but if you want something different to the normal energy drink taste then you can’t really go too far wrong with this one.

Orange Power Booster

October 26th, 2013

Woah, how much orange flavour can one squeeze in to a drink??!? Lots apparantly. This is the most orangy orange flavoured orange drink ever, and very sweet too. Imagine Tango, but concentrated loads and you’re nearly there. Nice though and despite the average caffeine content, it gave me quite a kick.
