It’s okay, but it’s a budget apple flavoured drink. It’s not sour by any definition of the word, but it is quite sickly and sweet. Basically, it’s fizzy apple squash.
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.
Once again, it’s just not sour enough. I’m not a fan of apple flavoured drinks either but apple flavour and sour sweets do go hand in hand. Not impressed personally.
Sharp and sour and really not to my taste. This is another one of those supposedly healthy style energy drinks. I didn’t enjoy it at all to be honest, but if you are the sort of person who is in to juicing then it may appeal to you.

I couldn’t finish this can, it’s just as flaming’ awful as the female ‘Wellwoman’ drink. This is specifically designed for men, so probably contains engine oil and sweat, although the ingredients only talk about things like green tea extract, guarana and artichoke. The main juices are apple and grape but I couldn’t taste that. Most of it went down the sink

Fizzy apple squash, that’s what this tastes like. Very sweet and syrupy like it’s been made from a lot of premix. It’s also in a larger can than normal (330ml) so you get a reasonable kick from it. Good value overall.
Jumping on the bandwagon of healthy drinks, EQ8 certainly has the credentials for being healthy. It contains no sugar other than that found in the medley of fruit juices it is concocted from, and the caffeine sources are guarana and green tea based too. Sadly the can gives no clue as to the actual caffeine content so I have to assume it is low. But, as energy drinks go, it does pick you up if not as forcefully as the synthetic varieties. Taste-wise, sadly it disappoints. This flavour is quite sour and could have done with added sugar to be honest!
It took a fair amount of effort to get hold of this drink – several trips to Boots because each time I went in, this flavour had sold out. The orange flavour was easy to get hold of by comparison. So, I had high expectations that this much be really nice as it’s the most popular. Well, I was disappointed. It’s not to my taste at all. Sharp with a nasty aftertaste. It could do with a load more sugar, but that would remove it from the low calorie category I guess! If you’re getting one of Boots’ Shapers, get the orange one.

Rockstar does it again with their original ideas. Whilst not particularly sour, it is reminiscent of the apple sour sweets you used to get when you were a child but much more palatable. I was concerned that a sour drink would be more suited to a smaller can but I was wrong – this drink was moreish and refreshing. Top marks all around!
