Euro Shopper Sour Cherry

May 23rd, 2015

I really like this. Synthetic and strongly flavoured, it’s really nice as well as quite cheap. It’s not very sour at all though as you would expect (come on, the ultra sour drink challenge is still open).

Red Kick

May 16th, 2015

I found this in a health food store, and as per usual any drink I get from a health food store tastes like cr..ubbish. I didn’t even finish the whole bottle because it tasted so naff. It didn’t give me much of a boost either even given the normal levels of caffeine.

Asda Blue Charge Sour Apple

May 9th, 2015

Yeah, it’s not sour! Come on beverage makers, make a properly actually really really sour drink and THEN you can call it sour! It’s apple, it’s caffeinated, that’s all.

Asda Blue Charge Chai Spice

April 4th, 2015

Quite weird. It tastes like a mixture between ginger beer and Christmas. I can’t say it was refreshing or thirst quenching at all, but it is certainly very different.

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.

KX Cola Zero

March 21st, 2015

Not bad actually! Given the pretty bad taste of regular KX, their colas are alright. Okay, so it still tastes like a cheap cola, but it is packed full of caffeine and is low calorie too. Overall, not a bad choice for cola lovers.

Rockstar Supersours: Blue Raspberry

March 14th, 2015

Once again, the word ‘supersour’ is being mis-used. Yes, it’s a really nice drink which tastes like you’ve chewed a whole packet of fruit pastilles, but it’s most definitely not super sour. It’s a bit sour.

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.

Big Up Power Wild Ginger

February 28th, 2015

Having tried KX ginger energy drinks, I was quite apprehensive about trying this one. I was pleasantly surprised because it didn’t burn my mouth in quite the same way as KX. It’s not my sort of thing, but it wasn’t nasty and if you like ginger flavoured drinks then this could be the one for you. Much sweeter and less bitter – more like a ginger infused lemonade.
