Warrior Rage Energy Shot: Energy Burst

November 16th, 2024

When you open this bottle you get an aroma not too different to Calpol. Which is a good thing because everyone loves the taste of Calpol! The taste is of course both extremely sweet and bitter at the same time, which is what you have to expect from an energy shot really. It reminds me a lot of the original Red Bull energy shot from several years ago, when energy shots were all the rage. Rage 🙂 get it? Cuz this is called Warrior Rage? No? Oh ok, well, a good energy shot, sorry for the ramblings!

Protein Dynamix Dynamo Booster Shot – Blue Raspberry

August 31st, 2024

As with all energy shots there is a bitter taste to this drink, but the blue raspberry flavouring does a brilliant job of making this drink taste ok! Don’t forget that this is a massively potent shot containing 200mg of caffeine, so I’d suggest not having ANY other energy drinks within 24 hours of this one. It wakes you up good and proper all by itself!

Protein Dynamix Dynamo Booster Shot – Cola

December 2nd, 2023

As with all shots, the flavour is intense and bitter. It’s undoubtably cola flavoured, but not in a pleasant way! This is designed to give you a quick liquid shot of caffeine as fast as possible. It packs in 200mg of caffeine actually, which is a lot – keep in mind a can of Red Bull is 80mg, so you’re downing two and half cans equivalent. Please, please remember that and don’t follow it with a chaser of Monster!

Oshee Futuryx Lab Booster – Wild Strawberry-Apple

October 21st, 2023

The strawberry’s not only going to be wild, it’ll be livid 🙂 Not as bitter tasting as I thought it would be – usually shots are very sour and bitter. This one, whilst still on the sour side, mostly tasted of concentrated apple. There was a slight strawberry aftertaste but it’s pretty much apple all the way down. Not as highly caffeinated as many other shots, which is a good thing because a lot of them are trying to pack 200mg into a 60ml drink and that’s ridiculous. This is a more sensible 100mg dose, so only slightly more than a regular 250ml can of energy drink would contain.

Optimum Nutrition Pre-Workout – Lemon Lime

October 7th, 2023

I managed to find quite a few energy shots recently, and I haven’t seen many in years. This first one is a lemon-lime flavour with quite a bit of caffeine in (175mg). I’d hoped that after a few years the makers would have worked out how to make the shots sweeter tasting but sadly it’s still quite bitter. You can taste the lemon and lime flavouring, but the whole drink has a sour tang that makes you draw back the corners of your mouth in an instinctive reflex sort of way. As shots go, I’ve had worse!

Moju Chilli Energy

January 11th, 2020

An experience… I’m glad it’s in shot form though. It’s basically a very juicy shot tasting mostly of pineapple juice, but there’s chewy bits floating around in it which make it quite weird to drink. Then, about 3 seconds after drinking it you get the hit of the chilli. It’s certainly very unique, but given its odd drinking experience and the very low caffeine content it’s not going to score too highly as energy shots go.

Moose Juice Energy Shot Rainbow Candy

May 25th, 2019

This is a flavour first – I’ve never seen a ‘rainbow candy’ drink before, energy or otherwise. As a shot, you do get a very slight bitterness, but it’s tempered a lot by the sweetness. Yes… an energy shot that tastes sweet! I’d really like to try a regular energy drink of this flavour as I’d reckon it’d be quite a treat. This shot also has added BCAAs for the gym-goers.

SIS Go Caffeine Shot Tropical

April 13th, 2019

Slightly different to the taste I was expecting – the usual energy shot flavour is one that’s very bitter with quite a nasty aftertaste, but this one was instead very sharp with a sweet aftertaste. It still made me draw back my lips from my teeth and make a hissing sound, but it was nowhere near bad enough to make me question my motives in trying the shot this time. It’s pretty high in caffeine even for a shot and gave me a boost in pretty much record time… not a drink to be taken lightly!

USN Spike Energy Shot Cola

March 23rd, 2019

Imagine if you can that you have managed to liquidise or juice a whole bunch of sour fizzy cola bottle sweets. And then you downed it in one go. That’s pretty much what you have with this cola flavoured energy shot. It gets full marks for originality because I have never tasted anything like this before! It needs to be sweeter though to be perfect because you still get the expected very bitter and sour taste that you get with every other energy shot. Worth a go if you manage to find one because it’s one of a kind.
