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.

Rubicon Raw Pineapple and Passion Fruit

April 29th, 2023

It’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.

Xyber Orange

December 25th, 2021

How on Earth do you pronounce Xyber? Ex-eye-ber? Zyber? Cyber? Who knows… despite it being ‘orange’ in the name, it’s much more of a tropical drink. Quite refreshing, easy to drink, but quite furry on your teeth by the time you’ve finished it! There was an empty space on the shelf next to this one for another Xyber flavour and if I can track that one down it will be interesting – berries I think…

Sunsoul Passion Fruit

July 18th, 2020

It looks like Sunsoul are taking a different approach with their branding now. Gone from the can design is the random ‘#’ of the variety, this flavour is just a name. the can design also has a lot more colour with a bright pink top half instead of the all-white minimalistic design on the other flavours. The flavour is quite sharp and obviously on the tropical side. I found it quite sickly even though it’s not too overloaded with sugar.

Rockstar Baja Juiced – Passion Frutas

May 2nd, 2020

Well, you can write it in Spanish if you like, but it’s still a tropical/passion fruit drink. Yes it’s fruity, yes it’s very sweet, but it’s really quite a summery drink and odd to find in the depths of a British Winter. Given the many, many, MANY other tropical style Rockstar drinks I’ve discovered over the years, I’m really not sure what distinguishes this particular one from any of the others… perhaps it’s just a marketing thing?

Monster Punch: Pipeline Punch

July 29th, 2017

When you open the can you are greeted with the unmistakable ‘tropical’ aroma of this drink. It turns out the taste is not quite as the smell suggests – it’s fruity and slightly sharp, but much smoother than say Monster Ripper.

Burn Passion Punch

October 8th, 2016

Not bad at all! It’s really sweet and tropical, but the balance is just right and it’s pleasant to drink. A larger than normal can and packed full of sugar, it’s not one for regular consumption though.

Source Orange & Passion Fruit

January 9th, 2016

Not exactly original, but certainly a palatable beverage. It’s fruity and fresh, but also quite sweet and sickly by the time you get to the end of the can.
