ESTAR – Lemon and Lime

April 30th, 2016

A very nice lemon and lime flavoured energy drink. Quite often with the lemon/lime flavours, they taste like someone has used way too much cordial. But, this one is balanced just right. This is the first ESTAR drink I’ve discovered and looking at their web site they seem to have many flavour varieties. If I come across any others I’ll be sure to grab and review them quickly.

Rockstar Freeze – Frozen Lime

February 6th, 2016

A really nice and smooth lime flavoured drink. I’m a big fan of lemon and lime energy drinks, and this one doesn’t disappoint. I can’t detect the ‘cooling’ effect that you are supposed to experience, which is where the ‘frozen’ aspect of the drink branding comes in, but it’s nice regardless.

POSI+IV – Strawberry and Lime

September 12th, 2015

I had high hopes for this, but it turns out that strawberry and lime do NOT go together that well – in this instance at least. It was like a badly mixed cocktail.

POSI+IV – Lemon and Lime

August 8th, 2015

It tastes nice, but it’s basically diabetes in a can. According to the web site it “delivers higher levels of energy than current market leaders.” which is technically correct – it packs a whopping 62 kcal per 100ml which at least rivals Lucozade, but delivering it in a 250ml can and comparing it to other similar products it really does pack a lot more energy in the form of sugar I’m guessing from looking at the carb content.

Red Rooster Mojito

July 11th, 2015

This is the second mojito flavoured drink I’ve discovered, the first being ‘Black – Mojito’. Red Rooster have managed to do it properly though. Black Mojito suffered from the small problem of tasting nasty, I think they may have over minted their mix. You can still taste mint in Red Rooster Mojito, but it’s tempered somewhat and the sweetness from the lime is main flavour.

Source Sugar Free Strawberry and Lime

March 7th, 2015

It’s very different, and it’s sugar free. Light, refreshing, and enjoyable, but it didn’t give me much of a wake-up kick for some reason.

Mixxed Up: Lime

November 22nd, 2014

I do love my lime/lemon/citrus flavoured drinks. Usually they’re the most refreshing and enjoyable of all the flavours. This one, I have to admit was nice, I think. I drank it almost absent minded and it wasn’t until I’d finished the can that I suddenly wondered what it tasted like. Having said that, it must have been okay because I’m sure I’d have noticed if it weren’t – but by the same evidence it also didn’t stand out either.

LSV Citrus Blast

August 15th, 2013

Another string to the LSV bow, this time it’s citrus. Specifically, it tastes like lime and quite a strong mix of lime flavour too. Nice, but in large quantities I’d imagine it to be very sickly. If they did a sugar-free version of this drink though I’d drink it loads more because I enjoyed it.

Pit Bull Cherry and Lime

July 3rd, 2013

I’m really not convinced on the combination of cherry and lime in this drink. The cherry flavour comes through, but it someone severely soured by the lime making it quite a bitter experience. Having tried the original Pit Bull, I could sense a theme as the underlying taste of the original was evident in this drink too, however I don’think it works as a mixer with other ingredients. Still, there are other Pit Bull cocktails to try and they could turn out to be wonderful so I shall withhold my judgement on this brand until then. Personally, I won’t be trying this again because there are many more nicer tasting drinks out there.
