Monster Rehab: Tea + Lemonade + Energy

March 17th, 2012

This drink surprised me: it didn’t have the usual Monster flavour that I was expecting. Being non-carbonated, it shares more in common with some of the Rockstar drinks instead, but is still very nice. It mostly tasted like still lemonade, but did have a note of tea about it even if it was very faint. There’s nothing else out there on the market quite like this, so full marks for originality, but I am a little disappointed that it didn’t jump out as being a Monster Energy drink from the taste.

Lucozade Alert Plus Shot

January 7th, 2012

A very sour lemon tasting  shot, but it does wake you up. It’s also sugar free as standard which is unusual given that Lucozade products are normally quite high in sugar and calories. The sugar isn’t missed though because you get the energy hit quickly and it lasts for a few hours making this quite an effective shot.

Rockstar Recovery

August 29th, 2011

It’s not fizzy, but it does indeed wake you up. This drink is like no other energy drink. It tastes amazing in my opinion – like traditional lemonade. There’s none of the Rockstar flavouring from their other drinks. It’s non-carbonated and very sweet, and it goes down really easy. Full marks for originality and taste here, plus with it being a large can I’m sure it’ll hold a place near the top of the overall score chart for a long time.
