Body Fuel Energy Shot: Berry Blast
January 10th, 2026Yup, berries. It’s the usual deal with an energy shot – you take a decent gulp and then a deep breath as the bitter flavour kicks in. It was on the sweeter side of things, but still pretty synthetic tasting. So far I’d say the blue raspberry one tasted nicer.
Body Fuel Energy Shot: Blue Raspberry
December 20th, 2025I was expecting this to be pretty bitter but I was very surprised! It’s actually very sweet – ok, it’s an energy shot, it doesn’t taste great, but in the world of energy shots this one isn’t too bad. The blue raspberry flavouring is strong but there’s no nasty aftertaste or drawing back of your lips over your teeth in shock at the flavour. Honestly, I’d probably try this one again.

Furocity Tropical Rampage
July 19th, 2025I’m always apprehensive when trying a new energy shot. I know that they’re going to most likely be bitter and unpleasant. But… with those low expectations already set then sometimes you get a nice surprise. Ok, so this drink is definitely bitter and not a great taste, but the baseline is against other energy shots and this one was much nicer than average! The bitterness is tempered with a sweetness from the tropical flavouring, almost tangy in some respects and because of that you don’t get the usual lingering aftertaste from most shots. As energy shots go, this one’s ok I suppose!
Warrior Rage Energy Shot: Lemon & Lime
May 24th, 2025You don’t tend to see many energy shots anymore and I think the reason is because they tend to be quite bitter. This one is no different – you can just about taste the citrus from the lemon and lime flavouring, but it’s mostly masked by the sourness from the shot itself.
Warrior Rage Energy Shot: Energy Burst
November 16th, 2024When you open this bottle you get an aroma not too different to Calpol. Which is a good thing because everyone loves the taste of Calpol! The taste is of course both extremely sweet and bitter at the same time, which is what you have to expect from an energy shot really. It reminds me a lot of the original Red Bull energy shot from several years ago, when energy shots were all the rage. Rage 🙂 get it? Cuz this is called Warrior Rage? No? Oh ok, well, a good energy shot, sorry for the ramblings!
Protein Dynamix Dynamo Booster Shot – Cola
December 2nd, 2023As with all shots, the flavour is intense and bitter. It’s undoubtably cola flavoured, but not in a pleasant way! This is designed to give you a quick liquid shot of caffeine as fast as possible. It packs in 200mg of caffeine actually, which is a lot – keep in mind a can of Red Bull is 80mg, so you’re downing two and half cans equivalent. Please, please remember that and don’t follow it with a chaser of Monster!
Oshee Futuryx Lab Booster – Wild Strawberry-Apple
October 21st, 2023The strawberry’s not only going to be wild, it’ll be livid 🙂 Not as bitter tasting as I thought it would be – usually shots are very sour and bitter. This one, whilst still on the sour side, mostly tasted of concentrated apple. There was a slight strawberry aftertaste but it’s pretty much apple all the way down. Not as highly caffeinated as many other shots, which is a good thing because a lot of them are trying to pack 200mg into a 60ml drink and that’s ridiculous. This is a more sensible 100mg dose, so only slightly more than a regular 250ml can of energy drink would contain.

Optimum Nutrition Pre-Workout – Lemon Lime
October 7th, 2023I managed to find quite a few energy shots recently, and I haven’t seen many in years. This first one is a lemon-lime flavour with quite a bit of caffeine in (175mg). I’d hoped that after a few years the makers would have worked out how to make the shots sweeter tasting but sadly it’s still quite bitter. You can taste the lemon and lime flavouring, but the whole drink has a sour tang that makes you draw back the corners of your mouth in an instinctive reflex sort of way. As shots go, I’ve had worse!
Moju Chilli Energy
January 11th, 2020An experience… I’m glad it’s in shot form though. It’s basically a very juicy shot tasting mostly of pineapple juice, but there’s chewy bits floating around in it which make it quite weird to drink. Then, about 3 seconds after drinking it you get the hit of the chilli. It’s certainly very unique, but given its odd drinking experience and the very low caffeine content it’s not going to score too highly as energy shots go.
