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.

Mountain Dew: Baja Blast
December 13th, 2025As smooth as you’d expect from any Mountain Dew drink! This is a US imported drink that I discovered in a local convenience store, or corner shop as we call them here in the UK. The can says it’s a tropical lime flavour, but forget the tropical part, it’s a really nice and smooth lime flavour which is clearly synthetic because the can proudly declares that it contains 0% juice! I know this has been around for a long time and it’s taken me a while to track a can down, but it was worth it, this has got to be one of my favourite drinks I’ve tried in recent years.
Kick Energy Drink
December 6th, 2025I found this at a local pub and got strange looks when I asked them not to open the can because I wanted to take it home… anyway, this Kick Energy Drink brand is a sub-brand of “Globalbrands” who are better known as the distributors of Hooch – the alcoholic lemonade loved by teenagers from the 1990s everywhere, Reef – the alcoholic orange drink, and VK, which is like totally not a WKD rip-off. Anyway back to Kick… it’s not bad at all. It’s a Red Bull clone of course, but it’s sweet although on the watery side. It’s essentially designed as a mixer I guess and in that respect it’ll work perfectly. Not sugar-free or low calorie, but slightly reduced in sugar I guess to avoid the sugar tax, but to be honest it tastes nice as a basic energy drink.
Body Fuel Ultimate Pre-Workout: Frozen Popsicle
November 22nd, 2025A 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, 2025Extremely 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.

Lucozade Energy Blue Burst
November 8th, 2025Lucozade Energy always used to be quite watery but these newer flavours are much more robust! Blue Burst is supposed to be tropical flavoured, and perhaps it is but it’s more a slightly tropical twist on blue raspberry. Maybe it’s the colour of the drink messing with my senses but I’m sure it’s not *that* tropical. It’s quite sickly though due to the large amount of sugar in it and as with most Lucozade products the amount of caffeine in it is not listed meaning it’s pretty low.
SCI-MX Xplode: Atomic Passion
November 1st, 2025I 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, 2025Another 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…

Perfect Ted Energy Apple Raspberry
October 18th, 2025The blurb on the can has a nice little story: “Hey, I’m Marisa! I have ADHD and anxiety. I wanted to feel energised without the jitters or crashes, so I created a brain-boosting energy drink…” and so it continues. I am by no means an expert in ADHD or anxiety but a little bit of reading suggests that caffeine and other stimulants can help with ADHD symptoms. Every day is a school day it turns out! This drink it a tea-based drink, and I’m not a fan of tea at all – I find it too bitter, but as it’s one of the most popular drinks worldwide I am clearly in the minority. This drink as I say is mostly tea-flavoured, it’s very lightly carbonated, and has a fruity apple/raspberry flavour. Mostly it tastes of tea to me though and I’m sorry, Marisa, I couldn’t finish it because of that 🙁
