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.
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.

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.
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.
A very interesting take on a tropical energy drink – yes it says it’s tropical flavoured, but it’s coconut! There must be some fruit in there somewhere too but it’s not anything like your typical tropical drink. I’m also slightly concerned by the allergy information saying this may contain crustaceans and fish… it doesn’t taste fishy anyway, how do those accidentally get into an energy drink mix, are they using tropical sea water?!? anyway, it’s a nice and very different tasting drink.

It’s a bedazzlingly gold can which sadly doesn’t give off the premium vibe that I think it was trying to go for. Rather, it looks more like the one-off budget brands you pick up in the pound stores which are trying to be shiny and bright to grab your attention. As drinks go, it’s not bad though – a very sweet tropical flavoured one that’s not too sickly even in this 500ml large can.
So this is what it tastes like when you mix a tropical drink with a cherry one. Tropical cherry. It’s certainly unique that’s for sure. I’m not sure if I actually like it or not, I mean, I don’t hate it, it’s just an assault on the senses is all, not what I’m expecting on my taste buds! You have the tartness from the tropical, plus the sherbettyness (new word, officially) from the artificial cherry flavouring. The name Raptor I’m assuming is referring to the Velociraptor dinosaur and not the birds of prey… and I’m basing that off the picture on the can!

It’s just a tropical flavoured energy drink, nothing fancier than that really I’m sorry to say. I drank it, it was quite highly caffeinated, I enjoyed it, but it doesn’t stand out much.

Much like the mixed berry flavour of this drink, it’s quite sharp and bitter. If you like that sort of thing then you will like this drink! It’s a strong flavour too, not too watery, so you get a real tang on your tongue from it.
