Dragon Energy Sugar Free
June 3rd, 2023I’ve tagged this as a clone, but it’s sort of not. Whilst there is that expected taste that’s very similar to Krating Dung (if you remember that one), it’s a nice energy drink that’s very fruity and sweet. Considering this is a low calorie drink you’d struggle to know that as it tastes like it’s packed full of sugar.

Braw Energy Red Cherry
May 27th, 2023The second Braw flavour I’ve discovered. Like the Blue Raspberry one, the can is glossy black with a paper label stuck to it – quite smart but unusual. Flavour-wise it doesn’t kick you in the face, but the artificial cherry is quite nice and balanced just right. A pretty good drink for the budget price I paid (89p I think).

Prime Energy Drink Lemon Lime
May 14th, 2023First there was Prime, the expensive coconut water drink prized by every 12-year-old in the country. Now there’s Prime Energy Drink and it’s less in demand mainly because the shops won’t sell it to them 🙂 I love lemon and lime drinks, so I thought I’d start by trying the Lemon Lime Prime Energy. It’s a very strong flavour, no watering this down at all. That does make it quite sickly to drink sadly and extremely sweet despite the lack of sugar in it. It’s an ok energy drink packing plenty of caffeine, and the branding is certainly premium. At £2 per can it’s priced as a premium drink of course, but I have paid a lot more for considerably worse tasting drinks! Bingo bingo…

Ted Lasso Pregame Energy Drink
May 13th, 2023This was discovered in a small shop in New Orleans – not by me I should add, it was a gift! Now I’m not certain if this is officially endorsed by Ted himself – the can is a plain silver affair wrapped in a plastic film design which suggests to me that this was a small batch run using a promotional gear company (the sort of cans you get at corporate shows and events that are wrapped in some random product’s branding… look everyone our new window cleaning gizmo saves you energy so drink this energy instead). Sorry, I digress… I was expecting a regular cheap clone but was very surprised when I opened the can and the drink was bright blue. Turns out it’s blue raspberry flavour! Overall, it’s a novelty, really well presented in the can actually and taste-wise it’s not what I expected. I would say go grab a can but I couldn’t honestly tell you where to find it!
Rockstar Refresh Strawberry and Lime
May 6th, 2023I know that strawberry and lime is a popular combination now, but I’m not sure I get it. I love lime. I love strawberry. But, together? It’s not unpleasant but you end up with it tasting of neither, just a mush of strawberry lime hints in a general fruity drink. Look, the drink is ok, it’s refreshing, but I’m just not sure that strawberry and lime is up there with the killer combos of tomato and basil, or chocolate and orange. Not that you’d want either of those from an energy drink of course.

Rubicon Raw Pineapple and Passion Fruit
April 29th, 2023It’s just a really sugary tasting tropical energy drink. Loads of it, gives you quite a fruity rush I guess and it’s not bad tasting, but it really isn’t anything special.

Bang Cherry Blade Lemonade
April 22nd, 2023Wow, there’s a lot of caffeine in this drink! It kept me awake perfectly while on holiday exploring the busy sights of New York. Cherry Blade Lemonade. I get cherry. I get Lemonade. I don’t get blade… not sure what that is all about really. I was a bit disappointed with the flavour to be honest because I was expecting a citrus drink with a slight tang of cherry. It was quite synthetic in my opinion… packed a punch though.
Hell Apple
April 15th, 2023I found this at Heathrow airport so obviously paid a premium for it. Yeah, it was ok – the apple was sharp and because of that you need to make sure it’s ice cold or it gets a bit sickly to drink. Not as nice as the original Hell energy drink.
C4 Orange Slice
April 8th, 2023It’s not a stand-out amazing drink, but as orange flavoured energy drinks go it’s quite smooth and refreshing. More of a orangey citrus drink really, but quite easy to drink. Not as nice as the Frozen Bombsicle variety but I won’t turn my nose up at it!
