Mad Croc Energy Drink
Mad Croc
Cost: $.75-$1.50 8.4 oz
Active ingredients: Taurine, Caffeine
Rating: 8 out of 10
Mad Croc is interesting�kind of like the Mad Dog 20/20 or Boones Farm of the energy drink world�a guilty pleasure�cheap, and not to bad but you look like a bum that can�t afford the real thing when you are holding the blue and silver Red Bull knock off can. The flavor of Mad Croc is best described as Red bull with sugar�.LOTS of sugar. Yes folks, not only does it LOOK like Red Bull, but it tastes like Red Bull as well�.Red Bull on a 3 day Pixie Stick bender�this baby is SWEET. As you can imagine you get quite a twitch from drinking a little can of Mad Crock, problem is it�s almost a nervous energy�.still, it does do it�s job well, lots of punch for sure. One of the best things about Mad Crock is its price. I often see it selling for $1.50 per can as a buy one get one free deal�so 2 cans for less than the price of one Red Bull (though I definitely recommend saving one for later as drinking 2 could damn near turn you into an adult version of a 4 year old on crack that has been watching Anime for 9 hours straight.) Check your local 7-11 because that�s the only store chain that seems to carry it. Over all I�d recommend you giving Mad Crock a try if you are into Red Bull. It has that same familiar flavor, kind of a hint of wild berry with a nice little twist.
Oh, and by the way�Mad Croc works GREAT with Vodka...I even prefer it to Red Bull and Vodka for my late night club drink.

Posted by Dan at July 20, 2004 01:23 PMi've never tried mad croc energy drink but i like their citrus energy shots. "warning: contains the same amount of caffiene as 3 cups of coffee." wow 3 bottles of jolt worth right there. about 600 millgrams.6x that of red bull. it's good stuff.
a recipe:
take roughly 9 oz. out of a 2 liter of Moutain Dew. pour a can of hansen's original energy in. add a shot of citrus Mad Croc energy shot in there. shake GENTLY. enjoy, this taste great, lots energy and can be poured to people! also covers booze fairly good.i made the mistake of drinking 2/3 a 2 liter of this cause it's so good. I had to force myself to sleep before the kick kicked in because i would of gotten mass stomach ache :/P\. i enjoyed the rest of the bottle in the morning i woke upin a second and biked nearly 9 miles before i ate breakfast. good times....
Evan, where did you find the Mad Croc citrus? I'd like to give that a try.
Posted by: Jason at July 26, 2004 08:19 AMThis is an energy shot that comes in a tiny pouch at 7-eleven.
Posted by: Evan at July 27, 2004 04:57 PMTried the sugar free version of this stuff today and I absolutely love it!! Anyone know how to order this stuff by the case? would love to stock up on Mad Croc Sugar Free!!
Posted by: Dashel at July 31, 2004 05:01 PMi am personally a fan of Mad crock. not only is it cheap, but its good! the 16 oz. can is great for a little pre-activity boost when mounatin biking or other things. 7-11 is the only place they have been spotted.
i stil perfer Rock star over anything but i wil buy a mad crock every once in a while
I have become a fan....$2 for a 16oz can. they got me hooked with the 2 for $2 small cans. good marketing. In fact if i hadn't just had one I probably wouldn't be posting right now, I would be leaving work or something, but it enhances the ADD and I just forgot everything I was soppose to do. Gotta love it. Time to go clean the house.
Oh Yah I just bought the Mad Crock Gum....I will pos

Posted by: Susan at April 14, 2005 07:31 PMLike already said it tastes EXACTLY like redbull with a ton of pixy sticks dumped in. That being said, I didnt care for it. I love redbull, its my personal fav but even with its taste in there I didnt like it. Maybe if you like RB and very sweet drinks this might be right up your alley otherwise....eh. I overpaid for it to it seems. 7-11 had them for 1.99, same as the bull.
Posted by: Mike at May 19, 2005 09:20 PMI got a 16.9 oz can for $1.69, well worth the money.
Tastes great, works great, and doesent thin the wallet too much ^_^
Posted by: John at June 6, 2005 01:24 PMTried Mad Croc YUK!!! Still enjoy my Red Bull and now especially Red Bull Sugar Free.
Forbes rates Red Bull the #1 energy drink in the World. This past fiscal year 1.9 billion cans consumed in Austria alone.
All the energy drinks are not the real thing. But are the cheaper??? Ha! Pricing just shows you how hard and what the competitors will do. Does Mad Croc or any other imitation promote their product and put on events as Red Bull does(Racing,Sky-Diving, Motor-Cross, Hand-gliding, Sporting events etc)? No way! Mad Croc only wants your money. Two for One now but will reach higher pricing in the long run.
Remember Red Bull Is not a gimmick or fad; It's the REAL thing and here to stay Tops in the Real World. Enough I'm off for a Red Bull.

Scott from Las Vegas: I say,
This is a Red Bull clone. I mean the flavor is the same, the can has similar color and style, and the name even follows the "adjective animal" format. So why would this one score higher than the original Red Bull? Because they didn't come up with the stupid idea in the first place. They're just cashing in for a quick buck, and you have to admire that. Plus, clones are usually cheaper at cut-rate grocery stores such as 7-11. Wait about three months, and I bet this crap is sliced down to four-for-a-dollar.
Red Bull is the Real Thing!!!
ok i have bee expermenting with diferient energy drinks so far mad crock tastes good and is probally one of the better ones out ther dont get me wrong i love red bull but if u want one that is better for u grade a MC and its cheaper
by the way 180 energy flip tastes nasty and if u still want to try differ5ent stuff id try nos [which is like drink two red bulls at once cause its big]or try liquid ice defientall not as sourish tasting but ok if u like sweet stuff
Mad Croc has a Website now: it is www.mad-croc.com watch the ingredients and you will see - Mad Croc is the same liquid as Red Bull but half of price. Do the blindtest. If you want a real good tasty Energy Drink then try RED DEVIL
www.reddevildrinks.com
I really like Mad Croc although this is the first time I've tried it. I also enjoy Red Rain. Who cares if people think you are cheap because you are not drinking 3 doller red bull, at the end, you are much smarter to save money and got same result;) Who's smarter now?
Posted by: Kawaiian at August 9, 2005 08:21 AMi would information on how i can buy direct from the company. thank you. call me 903-291-1138
Posted by: Benny Wood at August 11, 2005 08:02 PMmad croc is a decent drink, doesn't pack a lot of punch taste-wise, but what i'm most concerned about is that taurine comment. 7mg per 250ml. that is absolutely nothing. they shouldn't even be advertising it. most common smart drinks contain up to an over 1000MG, this contains only 7MG. Yes, only 7/1000th's as much taurine. Most amino acids are only going to do you any good at about the 1 gram range, so this falls WAY short. otherwise, it's a neat can, yo. but it shouldn't even say taurine on the can.
Posted by: mitkat at August 13, 2005 09:27 AMI accidentally purchased a pack of Mad Croc gum the other day, had a bad case of deathbreath and grabbed a pack on my way out of Target. Didn't pay much attention to the package (threw away the outer case) just saw mint flavored and a red crocodile so I figured, must be strong stuff for breath. Sweet taste in the begining but turned "listermint" after a minute of chew. Got a buzz for about 30 minutes, and at hat time I realized this was some sort of energy gum.
Posted by: Paranorman at September 23, 2005 08:16 AMshit stuff is great, always drink the sugar free, never even looked at it to make sure it wasnt but sugar free is good as hell, red bull is alright but this stuff is cheaper and thats good, people who like their red bull and wont drink anything else cuz they got their panties in a bunch alright, go drink that even tho u know mad-croc tastes better and costs less, PEACE
Posted by: andrei at October 5, 2005 10:55 AMThe energy drinks on the market like Red Rain and Mad Croc taste great but the content is bad. The sugar and carbs in them is crazy and for those of you who like the energized feeling of red bull or mad croc without out the sugar content then I would suggest XS power drink, it has all the caffeine of red bull and is safe enough for even diabetics to drink for free.
Posted by: James Roberts at October 21, 2005 11:37 PMtried Mad Croc spearmint this week and it was totally awesome....loved it. One of my fraternity brothers bought a few packs and we had to fight over it. tried to find it myself but couldnt find it. anyone know where to get it?
Posted by: Shawn at February 11, 2006 09:02 PMYou can get the gum at target.
Posted by: Sarah at April 9, 2006 10:15 PMMad Croc is a bad motha - shut your mouth. Mad Croc - Mad Crack - same difference:}
Posted by: timmy at May 15, 2006 08:00 PMI drink something like 7-8 mad-crocs a day.
They f--king rule. Seriously best energy drink next to Rockstar. :D
Not that rockstar gives me any real energy but it's taste is great. As For Joker. Tastes like Complete s---t. Like some orange peniciline vomit.
Really good drink, keeps me up when playin CSS, and verry cheap too, 1.25€ and pant 0.15€.
5/5 points!
