This is the first time i have tried a drink from the new elements energy drinks. I was quite happy. It wasn't the best drink but it was different. It was pretty sweet though and left a heavy feeling in my stomach. This was the biggest problem. Mixing with alcohol went well. It easily pasted all the lower mixing tests It started to be quite noticeably vodka filled at about 40% vodka. This isn't the best cover drink but 40% isn't to shabby either. The pump up ability is pretty good. I would say it is better than average. I was on it and pumped to run around and skateboard and such. The only issue with being pumped up was that with the heavy and to sugar filled stomach it started to make me a little sick feeling. It is just a little sweet to drink the whole bottle and then try to run around. If your out and about this isn't a bad drink especially if your looking for something more refreshing than many energy drinks. This stuff went down softer and less acidic than many of the other energy drinks like redbull. So If you are perhaps coming off the dance floor and looking for a pick me up Elements rain might have what your looking for but if your about to head out and are just getting started pick up one of the drinks that can hide the alcohol more and just get you going more. Oh yeah for you energy drink collectors i have to say this is the coolest metal bottles i have seen.
