Furocity Mango Mayhem

March 15th, 2025

Now this is much more inline with what you would expect from a tropical flavoured drink: mango, apricot and ‘tropical’ according to the details on the can. I’m a bit concerned about the random ‘tropical’ item in that list, I’m non-the-wiser as to what that might actually be, but there’s no mistaking the tangy and sharp tropical flavouring you’ll be familiar with from every other tropical drink out there.

Ferocity Watermelon Twist

March 8th, 2025

Smooth and fruity! I really enjoyed this, it was refreshing and interesting without getting too sickly I’d definitely get this one again. Conveniently the can says that this is watermelon and strawberry flavour and I reckon the strawberry is what’s making this so good.

Furocity Berry Freeze

March 1st, 2025

This is basically WKD Blue, hopefully without the alcohol though. If you’re after a flavour description then WKD Blue is the closest I can think of. It’s slightly sharp and refreshing, not like your normal blue raspberry, definitely a lot more like WKD than anything else!

Furocity Tropical Thunder

February 22nd, 2025

It’s a tropical energy drink! Not too tangy, quite smooth really and the passionfruit is the main flavour rather than the peach (is peach a tropical fruit? I don’t think it is…). A large can, low in calories, best served chilled because it gets a bit sickly as it warms up.

Furocity Lemon Blast

February 15th, 2025

A chance visit to Iceland (the shop, sadly not the country) flagged up an expansion of the Furocity energy drink range so of course I had to try them. I’ve decided to start with Lemon Blast because I love lemon drinks. Helpfully, all of the Furocity drinks provide a proper description of the flavour on the can amongst the small print, so this one is actually lemon, lime and mint. You can’t directly taste the mint but what it does is give the drink a slight freshness that balances out the sourness of the citrus fruits. This means it doesn’t need to be as sweet as most other lemon drinks are. I’d say they have found an interesting and winning way of cutting sugar!

Toxic Waste Baneful Blue Raspberry

February 8th, 2025

Another energy drink discovered in a foreign port. Well, actually, this time I found it in a shop in Falmouth, UK, but it was a US import. You normally associate Toxic Waste branded products with being really sour, but this one really wasn’t that sour. Ok, there was the background flavour of Toxic Waste products that you’d expect but overall it was basically just a blue raspberry flavoured drink. Quite smooth and easy to drink, no back of the throat sourness that I was expecting at all sadly.

Levi Roots Energy: Jamaican Sunset

February 1st, 2025

You can taste the watermelon, but it’s quite bitter which I’m guessing is the guava. Sadly I couldn’t taste the chilli which might have added a unique kick to the drink, but still it was a bit unusual all the same.

Levi Roots Energy: Caribbean Crush

January 25th, 2025

A reasonably decent tropical drink branded with the Dragons’ Den star’s now iconic name! Apart from the branding, there isn’t too much that stands out about the product. It was a good price for a large can and contained real fruit juice too which I guess is a bonus.

Kong Strong Colossus: Orange, Passion Fruit, Guava

October 19th, 2024

It’s a tropical energy drink. Badge it up however you like by listing the fruits used but at the end of the day it’s a huge (colossal?) can of tropical energy drink! Not bad, and from the budget supermarket Lidl so a decent price too.
