Alright it has been awhile since I reviewed anything. Well there are a couple reasons: I have been busy and it is getting harder and harder for me to find new energy drinks. Anyways this was a hard drink to review, because the energy in this drink is Great comes on strong and hard and is long lasting in comparison to some that just drop off suddenly. Great energy that is the reason to get an energy drink. The problem comes in my other forms of judgment flavor and mix ability. The flavor isn't bad, but it is weird. It is just really hard to describe. The best I could come up with is pineapple-ish like flavor. It is kinda citrusy with an odd after taste. I think one of the problems I had with the drink was that it was so hard to say what it tasted like, it was even a pleasant flavor, but what is it? Anyways it is quite a refreshing taste (serve this one cold its far better). Then mixing well pouring in my vodka i thought about the odd flavor and how well it would cover up taste. It doesn't cover it bad, probably getting a nice 30% before it really becomes a problem, but other do better, and when the taste of alcohol the was getting bad i realized that the refreshing taste of the drink has left almost immediately after I started putting the booze in. Anyways it gets high marks for energy so if that is really what your after give this drink a shot.

Whats up Dan?
Funny ass blog.

Was thinking of creating a new energy drink. Know anything about how to do this? Who does packaging, drink design, etc? Not worried about creating a good drink... just have a fun idea on a marketing angle.

Any tips would kick ass.

Thanks,
adam

Great site, I'm looking for energy drink contacts who may be looking for celebrity (Music or Film/TV) connections and entertainment media publicity. Phone #'s would be helpful.
Must be a quality,solid, professionally run brand, upcoming and relatively unknown is ok.
Any info you care to send me would be appreciated, let me know how I can return the favor.
cheers
Anthony

I like what you said about the energy drink. I dont like that one as much as the cran-grape, tropical, and lemon. Those flavors are better. Warning on the lemon flavor though. It packs a kick. My favorite flavor would definitley have to be the lemon flavor. :)
Have a good one.
