Nice and fresh. The orange (I can’t vouch for the Valencian origin of those oranges) flavour is balanced well, not massively strong but not weak and watery either. Quite an interesting design for the can too, taking design hints from those other brands which are targeting the health market. You still have the large Reign logo, but you now have the silver background and actual pictures of fruit!

This is more like it. After the disappointing AI flavour of drink, black cherry gives me that fizzy fruit sherbet cherry flavour from my childhood! Extremely drinkable and robustly flavoured.

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.

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!
As has become traditional, Red Bull have released their annual summer flavour for 2024. This time it’s Curuba and Elderflower. It’s very citrussy and fruity, but quite sickly. It’s a bit like a tropical energy drink in terms of the fruitiness but without the tang that you get from mango/passionfruit… so smoother. Certainly worth a try as it’ll only be around for a year, but probably not one I’ll be getting more cans of.

much stronger flavour than the strawberry version, this is punchy and recognisably bubblegum flavoured, so much so that you could almost chew it 🙂 Because it’s a large can, there’s a lot of drink to get through though so it does become sickly after a while. Still, quite original and exactly what it says it’s supposed to be.

It does actually taste like Millions sweets! I think this flavour is basically what you’d get if you soaked strawberry Millions in water for a few ays and drained off the results. It’s not as strong in flavour as the actual sweets themselves, it’s quite watered down tasting, but the flavour is very recognisable and really nice.

This is Monster’s take on an apple flavoured drink. The flavour is so subtle though that I totally forgot I was drinking an apple drink! It’s basically like normal Monster energy but with a subtle apple tint to it. Quite drinkable as usual!
I bog standard regular orange flavoured drink. You couldn’t even tell that it’s an energy drink to be honest, it just tastes like a slightly fizzy orange squash. It tastes ok, but it’s not a premium product really
