RockStar Energy Drink

RockStar Energy Drink
Cost: $2.00 16 oz
Active ingredients: Taurine, Guarana, Ginko, Caffeine, Milk Thistle, B2, B3, B5, B6, B12
Rating: 9 out of 10

Welcome rockstar, apparently the new ruling champion of energy drinks across many college campuses. This drink I have had quite a few times and started to like it a long time ago, I just kept forgetting to review it for some reason. That didn't seem to slow it down. I have had more email about rockstar from readers than almost any other drink. Also talking to friends across the country this seems to be the drink that almost everyone is moving to. It is easy to see why also, it taste very similar to redbull although a little different, but it pumps you up as much if not more than redbull an that is basically with just half a can. I mean this is twice the size for the same cost. It has the same mix ability as redbull and is very tasty in my opinion. If you don't like redbulls flavor, your not likely to like this one either, in that case i would say give monster a try just because it has a different flavor but pretty much all of the same benefits that rock star brings to the table. I am starting to look for alternative flavors, because of the boredom I am getting having some many drinks that taste very similar. So rock on rock star the current kind of the energy drink world it appears. Although I am sure some other competitors will be right on your tails...

Move over rockstar the new man in town is Full throtle. This is a new product from the big red giant (Coke). But beware dont drink after 3pm unless you plan on staying up all night.. I made that mistake this one comes in a cool can and packs an enormous punch.. It just came out 12/13/04. 16 oz

Check out the website for rockstar, they are going to take on coke now (well not really), but they have a new ENERGY Cola.

I am addicted to Rock Star energy drink. I have one per day and even a red bull in the morning. Is this bad? I heard that it was kind of like speed. Please help me research this. Thank!

ROCKSTAR IS THE KING!!! we drink it every weekand!!!
MONSTER SUCKS!!!

Posted by: THE MISFIT CREW at February 14, 2005 12:52 PM

I WAS A REP FOR THE RED BULL FOR 3 YEARS SO I'VE DRANK MY SHARE. I HAVE TO SAY, ROCKSTAR IS FOR SURE THE ROCK! I LIKE THE TASTE SO MUCH MORE THAN RED BULL AND IT HAS MADE NEW MIXES AROUND MY PLACE! IF ANYONE KNOWS HOW TO REACH THE TEXAS REGION MANAGER PLEASE LET ME KNOW HOW. I WANT TO SHOOT THEM A COPY OF MY RESUME. I'VE GOT A 250 RED BULL RETAILER LIST AND I WOULD LOVE TO PUT ROCKSTAR NEXT TO ALL THAT REDBULL.

If these drinks are all about energy with its main ingredient "CAFFEINE" and loaded with sugar, calories and artificial ingredients and preservatives you should be changing you drink to something that realy works.
Me and a bunch of my friends drink BUZZWATER it has 200mg of "CAFFEINE" compared to these energy drinks with just 80mg of "CAFFEINE" Even there BUZZLITE has 100mg of "CAFFEINE". This product has no crap and burns 160 calories in every bottle and it dosen't cost no 1.99 to 2.99
BUZZWATER rules, tastes just like water its no wonder all the pro athletes drink it. They have a flavored line called EiNSTEiNe with no calories and it has 260mg of "CAFFEINE" in a 330ml bottle.

I like the energy the only thing that makes my wonder is what does Natural and artificial flavors mean? What exactly are you drinking I don't like surprises :). What is it sweetened with does anyone know? email me if you do.

Posted by: Don at March 7, 2005 12:35 PM

Rockstar is the best drink EVER!!! it easily beats out any other energy drink I will ever taste. It is better than redbull, cheaper and bigger. How could you not love Rockstar?

Posted by: Monica at March 7, 2005 01:18 PM

Rock star, how creative. Its just one of about 12oo other energy drinks all using the same crap. At least Red Bull was the pioneer of energy drinks not some no brain thinking imitators. Monika you must work for the company or wish you were a rock star or something. Will red bull really give me wings if I drink it,if i pick up a guitar and drink rock star will my deams come true, if I wear a pair of nike's, will I gain mor air and jump higher than Jorden, What a crock, the drink and energy is all about the caffeine and there are alot of other more potent caffeinated products on the market than those mentioned.

Posted by: Kevin at March 11, 2005 04:23 PM

i do not work for rockstar or anything. I gave it a good reivew because it is basically the exact same crap as redbull as you said, but you get twice as much for the same cost. Also besides caffeine you get energy from taurine, guarana, and other stuff in the drink it isnt just about caffeine or red bull wouldnt have made such a splash as it did... thier is a noticable pump up effect from it... so I still stick by rockstar being a good buy... i genereally dont want twice as much energy drink so i go for cheaper versions in the regular size. If i am buying myself i go for clone when i can find it cause it is the same as red bull for a buck. But thank you for being a doosh bag kevin... sucker.

Posted by: Dan "energy" Man at March 11, 2005 06:36 PM

Rockstar IS the best energy drink ever! I stumbled upon it one day going into Sunoco.. the reason I went in there to begin with was to get some Red Bull. Then I saw these HUGE rockstar cans... Took a sip and almost everyday since then Im drinkin Rockst*r.! :)

Oh and to that person who was bashing RS because its lack of caffeine.. You get energy from Guarana*which is equivalent and more expensive than caffeine*, Taurine.. etc...

Posted by: Alicia at March 17, 2005 07:41 AM

I dont care what any of u say but Full Throtle is the best energy drink out there. I mean it has to be good, it came from the coca-cola company. Coca-Cola da bomb.

Posted by: CodeRed at March 17, 2005 04:49 PM

The entire Anastasia issue that was taking over this discussion board for awhile has been moved to it's own out of control post. If you want to read about Anastasia's rantings and my responces... Anastasia's Angry Energy Attack

There will be no more posts about this issue in the Rockstar forum... Sorry for the confusion...

Posted by: Dan "energy" Man at March 20, 2005 03:39 PM

Full throttle isnt that good, nothing compared to monster or rockstar.

Posted by: peter at March 22, 2005 06:45 PM

Rockstar has "Siberian" ginsing in it. A potent form of ginsing and red bull does not. Not all energy drinks are the same. The cheap ones rely on caffine. U guys should try reading the backs of the various cans and ull see what im talking about. Or just take my advice Rockstar is the best one for the $$.

Posted by: InfoGuy at April 14, 2005 12:09 PM

Diet Rockstar is my life source. I am hypoglycemic, which is the opposite of diabetic, and I can get my energy burst without any side affects to my sugar levels. I am doing a research paper on it and all of the research i can find, says Rockstar is best, Red bull comes close, but Rockstar is better tasting and better for you on almost every website and review I can find.

Posted by: robin at April 19, 2005 09:25 PM

I hear a lot of good reviews for this product and I am assuming these are by people who get this product from their local retailer but to anyone thinking about ordering online you should think twice. First of all customer service is terrible. They will take your money but you will be lucky if you ever see the product. If you don't believe me, call the number they have listed on their site (702) 939-5535. You will get a live operator but she will put you in voice mail and you will never get a call back. Good luck...don't get suckered like I did.

Red Bull forever

UHHH..I TOTALLY LOVE ROCKST*RS!!!! THEY ARE THE SHIT!!! THEY TOTALLY PUMPED ME UP DURING BASKETBALL GAMES!!! THEY ARE FREAKEN AWESOME!!!!!!!!! PARTY LIKE A ROCKST*R!!!

Posted by: LaShauna at April 25, 2005 10:42 PM

i have been drinking a rockstar a day for a few years now and now one of my teachers is saying that they are nothing but a rip and that i should just stop buying them but i got into a fight with him over it and now we are debating it in class and i only have a few more days to get ready he's going down on this one I LOVE ROCKSTAR I CAN NOT LIVE WITHOUT THEM what do you put into them to make them so damn addicting

Posted by: Kevin Ellisor at April 26, 2005 10:36 AM

Love the site. Love the reviews and comments. Please alphabetize the list! Also, provide a list sorted by your ranking. Thank you! I look forward to seeing the changes within a few hours.:) Get drinking.

Posted by: Brad Hill at April 29, 2005 06:48 PM

Costco here in PA had Rockstar on clearance. They were selling cases of 24/16oz cans for $9.97
I bought like 5, and my buddy went back and bought the remaining 10. Hell of a deal, and I love the stuff.

Posted by: therat at May 6, 2005 01:41 PM

The founder of rockstar's parents were both nutritionists--thus he grew up learning about what he has put into the drinks. It does have different ingredients to give you energy.

Posted by: dom^2 at May 26, 2005 01:48 PM

I usually start the day with a rockstar, I have tried Monster and I can see where people get the idea it tastes like apples, albeit very chemically altered apples. I have been drinking energy drinks like this for about 2-3 years now I started with Redbull and have tried the Hansens, Monster, No Fear, Kick Ass, etc., If they have made a drink that has the word energy in it I have consumed it.

STOP DRINKING THESE ENERGY DRINKS. Unless you are hellbent on your own destruction, which it seems some of you are.

First off the stuff makes you piss fluorescent colors, that can absolutely not be good for you, it gives you horrible heartburn, I get chest pains, I get burned out right after work and can't find the energy to go out and do anything I just mope around and my fiance' is starting to get a little pissed off. The stuff is chocked full of caffeine which has been proven to cause anxiety attacks that could accelerate into a cardiac arrest. Basically you are talking about your life, the people who have said that they have drank 13 in a few hours your risks for cardiac failure are double for every drink you add to your system, the caffeine accelerates your risk for cardiac failure.

When you drink these energy drinks you increase the acidic content of your stomach and that has to go somewhere, your stomach is already full of hydrochloric acid if you add something with the ph value of 8-9 = to a 16 ounce lemon juice cocktail you are going to disrupt the natural integrity of your stomach, you could develop ulcers. If you are having heart palpitations discontinue using any caffeine related beverage. For your own good just stop!

Look I know I'm addicted but today I just realized my heart hurts, my head hurts, I am popping antacids like they're candy corn, I can't get to sleep on time, I can't wake up without one, my bladder feels like it is always full and after I urinate I have to go again and again like I can never empty it. I get irritable when I don't have one. It gives me the same sensation drinking a Rockstar as it did when I used to submit to my craving for a cigarrete. I crave the drink and when I wake up or go out on the weekend my first thought is to rush out and get a rockstar first, I even started to buy them by the case. It will clog up your sinuses and throw your thyroid into chaos. I know I lost weight on this drink but it wasn't because I was moving around and getting a workout, it was because I had a reduced appetite. I lost 26 pounds on this stuff but It was more of a crash diet than a healthy alternative lifestyle. If you need to lose weight get your ass to the gym, don't use any energy drink if you're going to work out it also increases the chances for cardiac arrest.

If you need someone to talk to like for real if you need someone who knows what you are going through send me an email. This stuff can give you horrible depression and anxiety.

SAVE YOURSELF 2 BUCKS A DAY, SAVE YOUR HEART SAVE YOUR BODY AND JUST STOP!

I been drinkin Rockstar for about a month now. In that same time period I have been having many dizzy spells. Are these two things linked? If anyone else feels like this please let me know

Posted by: Tim G at June 11, 2005 02:54 AM

ROCKSTAR IS GOD when i die i hope rockstar does it to me i drink atleast one a day ive tryed many other energy drinks (15) and nothing is near as good as rockstar

7-11 SAYS THERES ALCOHOL IN ROCKSTAR ?!

I went to 7-11 yesterday (July 6, 2005) and I was getting a Rockstar Energy drink, when all of sudden the clerk asks me for my age (I'm 17) and said that I couldn't buy it because there's a new rule/law that there's a little bit of alcohol in it. And I told him that I've bought many Rockstar Energy drinks before and I never had this problem; and all he said was, "Sorry my friend." I looked at my previous cans of Rockstars at home and none said it contained alcohol.

Posted by: Ary at July 7, 2005 02:42 PM

haha it was crazy i had like four rockstars I WENT MAD lol god this stuff is the greatest way better then bull and monster i'm experimenting lately trying something new everytime but i break in and get this like everyother time cause wow

its the best

Posted by: danno at July 8, 2005 09:18 PM

god rockstar is the best i have it every day i buy 40 rockstars a week that stuff is so so so good

Posted by: aaron clare at July 9, 2005 05:22 PM

Rockstar is great. Make it cheaper please. one dollar per can will do. You'll make a lot of money and dominate the energy drink market that way.

Posted by: Chuck H. Chou at July 14, 2005 11:46 AM

i will start off by saying my fav. is between monster,rockstar oh and full t. suck it taste like old a** kool aid.oh i can forget LOST its pretty good i wanna try the stinger

Posted by: a. ringo at July 15, 2005 08:05 PM

Party like a Rockstar is a fuckin understatment, this shit fucks me up and i love it. Either this or Sobe no fear, nothin else compares. Monster gives me the shits.

Posted by: Red at July 22, 2005 11:35 PM

Good good! Smart idea, really. Approved by nutritionists this drink offers two ingredients not often found in energy drinks. Ginkgo, the disputed memory enhancer (but proven to improve overall circulation), is present. Also, milk thistle extract is there. For those who don't know, this is one of only 2 plant extracts known to lesser the effects of alcohol and subsequent alcoholism/hangovers. The other would be kudzu. This is my fav drink, other than Monster Assault.

Posted by: Skycapn at July 23, 2005 11:17 PM

This stuff is pretty darn good. Not as tasty as Amp and not as powerful as Sobe: NoFear, but it is still a great drink and I pick up a 4-pack almost everytime I'm at the local Super Fresh Grocery Store.

Posted by: Aeontees at July 28, 2005 10:48 AM

HOW DO I BUY STOCK IN ROCKSTAR? are u on the stock market? what is ur symbol?----Ed

Posted by: Ed at August 11, 2005 07:27 PM

DIET ROCKSTAR IS THE BEST! IT TASTE SO GOOD BECAUSE IT TAKES AWAY THE REGULAR ROCKSTAR'S SOUR TASTE! IT WORKS JUST AS GOOD TWO. I FUCK'N LOVE THAT BUZZ I START FELLING WHEN IM 3/4 DONE WITH IT! I LOVE ENERGY DRINKS! ESPECIALLY LOST!

Posted by: MIKE at August 16, 2005 07:14 PM

I Love Rockstar I have been addicted to it since the first time I tried over 3 years ago. I have tried all of the other so called energy drinks and still think Rockstar is the best. In fact I'm drinking one right now and I don't plan on quitting. Oh ya, it does help cure my hangovers.

Posted by: Brad at August 18, 2005 07:19 PM

I have been drinking one diet rockstar everyday for at least 7 months. I am now experiencing chest pains, difficulty in breathing and frequent dizzines. I want to quit drinking but i depend on them for energy. Are all these side effects???

Posted by: Cindy at August 21, 2005 12:53 PM

Wow! Just tried Rockstar for the first time Evar!! This shizzle is the Bomb!!! The taste rivals the more expensive drinks! I'm thinking that drinking more than one would be a bad thing, but does anyone drink 2 or more a day? It gave me a little pep to my step! Also, where can u get them at a discounted rate. I don't think the $3+ price tag will be appreciated by my wallet for very much longer.

Posted by: Vinnie at September 2, 2005 01:28 AM

For all you energy drink addicts out there in PA - Dollar Trees are selling RipIt. It tastes kinda like Lost, and is weak-@ss compared to Rockstar IMHO, but its only a buck ('caus its a dollar) so save yourselves some cash this week or however long they last.

Posted by: Sarah at September 8, 2005 08:56 AM

............................................................^ a dollar store

Posted by: Sarah at September 8, 2005 08:59 AM

I guess all of you who are getting Rockstar for the cheapness drink well alcohol. The taste of Rockstar is disgusting! Why would I want something that does everything to imitate the real thing! I guess there is a market for people who want a "bargain", but if I am spending my hard earned money - give me the real thing - I want Red Bull!!

Posted by: Mark at September 19, 2005 08:50 AM

I myself am a big monster fan, but after moving onto campus, my access to monster has been limited (unless I wanted to walk really far or go all the way out to my car). So today I gave this drink a shot because it is close.

Due to some dorm craziness last night (while I was trying to fall asleep), I woke up today rather tired, and I could tell I wasn't going to make it through my entire first 2 hour class without something to help me out. I decided to give this a shot. I was shocked this morning when I was charged $1.09 (total price w/ taxes and stuff) to get a full 16oz can. That just made my day. On a side note, though, I went again today to pick one up in case I had another slow morning and didnt feel like going to get one, and I was charged $1.99.

I drank the whole can over a period of about 15 minutes. By the time I was done drinking it, I already was feeling mild effects, which over the next 10 minutes or so started to become stronger. The peak intensity of drinking the one can was very nice and strong. I was pretty suprised at that. The taste also kinda suprised me a bit. At first I thought it was kinda bad, but as I drank more of it it became better tasting. This is usually the opposite of what I get from most energy drinks. Recently testing out full throttle it tasted great at the start, but quickly started to not taste as great. I still prefer the monster taste over any other I have tried so far, but taste is all a matter of opinion.

The drink succeded in keeping me well awake for the entire 2 hour class. By the end of the class (about 3 hours after drinking) the effects were definitley starting to wear off, but still there.

I really liked the energy given off of this drink, and I think that is the main thing it has going for it. I can see how a lot of people may not enjoy this taste, though. I myself, don't find it to be horrible (but it could certainly be better). I'm curious to test the effects of two cans sometime (I have interesting results when I do that with monster heh). 8/10 seems to be too harsh for this drink for some reason, and 9/10 seems just a BIT too good, so I would say 8.5/10 :P. Very good drink for energy!

On a side note, I did notice that my urine was slightly strange in color (not blatently, but just slightly off) to the tinge of green. Although I found that slightly disturbing at first, there are far stranger colors urine can be (blue urine being the strangest IMO), and I'm pretty sure there is nothing bad associated with it turning this color. If I remember correctly, food color can have that effect, so it may be something along those lines.

Posted by: Justin at September 28, 2005 12:32 PM

Damn this drink ownz! Each night on my evening shift at work i have a 16oz can, and it fuels me until the morning!
On parties i mix a 24oz can with red wodka (about 1:5 ratio, which equals almost 3 full cups), and it makes you feel like a REAL Rockstar (even though you realize you aren't), so this really works for me.
btw no hangover.

Posted by: kale piskop at October 1, 2005 03:08 PM

Out of the 7 or 8 energy drinks ive tried,,, this is the only one that i even remotely got a buzz on.

Posted by: Mike at October 3, 2005 01:30 PM

The first time i had a Rockstar I thought it was ok. But the more i had the more i liked it. Now before every soccer game I have around 4 or 5 16oz Rockstars through out the day. And I play like an animal!

Posted by: Weston Z at October 5, 2005 03:55 PM

Anyone else think Rockstar is sour tasting? Anyway it's good stuff.

Posted by: andrew at October 13, 2005 09:44 AM

Rockstar..the God of Energy drinks..Nothing compares to this stuff..The Diet Rockstar is my fav...It gives me kick like nothing out there..Redbull = expensive and overrated..Monster= not bad,but kick is short,smells funny?? Full throttle=sugar packed drink..not an energy drink at all..drink 2 M dew's and save your money..Sobe= worthy rival but taste like??? you figure it out..Rockstar tastes good (diet the best)..taurine..milk thistle..Diet ROCK STAR..winner hands down..

I drink 2 of them back to back...I last all day and all night..Only things is that the diet is hard to come by..I have to search for it..when I find it I stock up..They are well worth the money..As many as I've bought I should own the company...Anyways just try it and you wouldn't be disappointed...and if you are..then oh well!!

..Now back to enjoying my diet Rockstar...Carry on...

Posted by: CPACO7 at October 18, 2005 11:36 AM

I love rockstar. So much better than redbull, as its twice as much for the same price, and exact same taste, maybe rockstar is a little sweeter. Full throttle, however, i think is THE WORST tasting drink... i was at APpalachian state wrestling camp, and since we wrestle for 8 (i think) hours a day, needless to say, i needed energy. We stopped by a grocery store for food, so i picked up a full throttle. it SUCKED... i needed to drink it for the enrgy so i managed to choke it down... Tried rockstar later and loved it.My Ranking: Rockstar, Bawls, Redbull, Full Throttle

Posted by: chris at October 20, 2005 03:49 PM

I didn't see it, but i may have overlooked it. It's a energy drink called Liquid Z-High Octane. Just wondering if you could do a review on it? It's becoming a pretty big drink here in N.C. and the drink has me goin pretty good too. More of a kick than Red Bull and SoBe No Fear, which were big for me also.

Posted by: Darren at October 25, 2005 12:49 PM

how long does it take for an energy drink such as red bull or rock star to kick in , also how long does it give you energy for?

Posted by: mike at October 25, 2005 04:31 PM

rockstar kills brain cells.you should not drink it every day,about once every six months or more!
i had one this morning,but my freind gets really wack off it,it scares me!dont get addicted,i was,but i laided off the rockstar,you should too.brain cells
are important,lay off!i hardly drink anymore!

Posted by: natediz at October 27, 2005 11:08 AM

Alright NateDiz/Dr.Bonez/3other names...

you posted fromt he same ip range 25 posts claiming to be 4 or 5 people all saying how you need to stop drinking rock star. Look stop hijacking my message board or i have to turn comments off. If you think rockstar is unsafe post links to some articles to back up your opinion.. in fact almost everything written about energy drinks just says they are unsafe with alcohol, or abuse (aka drinking 3 a day every day). Besides that they are mostly caffeine which has been drank in large quantities for hundreds of years... so read some an educate yourself. Here is some information about what is in energy drinks and research about energy drink safety.

I deleted all but one of your posts since they said absolutely nothing except rockstar is bad for you and or kills you which isnt true.

Also, I wonder why you hate rockstar when there is 130+ drinks reviewed here many with the exact same ingredients as rock star just different flavors, but apparently rock star is the worst? Man you must be like 15 or something, find a hobby, go outdoors... or join this lame girl Anastasia who got all freaking annoying on my blog before in the past.

Thanks,

Hey, I'm a little crazy to begin with normally, I do enjoy the taste of energy drinks such as red bull and rockstar. but hate buying them. Once I drank 5 cans of red bull in 15 minutes, which gave me a remote buzz that couldnt have lasted more than a half hour. which rockstar does the same, but tastes better. MORE CAFFIENE!!!! rockstar pwns

I had to delete it cause it was covering pages and pages of scrolling through the same comments.

Apparently your caps lock is jammed in the on position and your grammar is even worse than my own, which is pretty diffigult to do.

Anyways as I stated before, why do you believe all energy drinks are bad, back it up with some truth... most stories are old wives tales of people dieing from drinking a red bull just simple have nothing to back them up.

Every country that has investigated energy drinks hasn't found anything to link them to health problems outside of mixing with excessive alcohol.

Happy Halloween every one.

dr bonez and gors are right!

your just some stupid fart!all energy drinks suck!
who are you anyway,the boss of this site!


Posted by: cluas at November 3, 2005 10:19 AM

Yeah I am the guy that made and runs this site. You will see my posts in various pages when I think something weird is happening...

like you agreeing with yourself. You are Dr Gors and Bonez... I can track where your posting from and all your posts are the same location.

So anything for real to say?

I started this site back my softmore year in college cause I have loved energy drinks... Then I drank them daily, now I drink one a week or so. Anyways, they are only bad for you if abused, much like every other substance, many of them have nothing more than high caffeine in them so it is just like drinking coffee, addictive yes, but not harmfull.

Full throtle

Rockstar sucks...the company has links to conservative Talk Show host Michael Savage. The flavor tastes like rotten sweet tarts. The Von Dutch off shoot is cheesy. Von Dutch is cheesier than Ashton Kutcher's new line - Zoo York. Gimmicks. Even the name is cheesy. Party like a rockstar? lame. Several of the posts on here are from employees it's obvious.

Rockstar, what can i say.It is the best energy drink. Red Bull is 2nd to it. They both are great but rockstar is cheaper, im broke, so i buy rockstar. Truly, you can party like a rockstar

Posted by: Sunny at November 7, 2005 05:38 PM

yuck! rockstar tastes icky.... monster is way better.

Posted by: bonnie w at November 11, 2005 09:14 PM

Yuck, Nothing... Rockstar beats Every other drink, Hands Down!! It rules!! and with their newer, can design and lower price for '06, it's gonna knock 'em all out of the running!

Posted by: Jordan at November 13, 2005 10:12 PM

Rockstar is a solid energy drink. Sure, the packaging is lame. But so what? Do you wanna drink it or pose with the can? Just tried the Von Dutch version. Has a more complex flavor, but pretty damn nasty. I'd take a Rockstar over a Monster, which doesn't hit as hard. I'd take a Diet Rite Cola over a Full Throttle.

I started drinking rockstars about a month ago during the day to help me sleep at night. I got addicted quick but recently i've noticed some constant dizziness and quick numbness in my legs when i walk now that ive laid off them. is anyone else experiencing this???????

Wakes up my ass just as i need it. Nothing compares it is awsome!

Posted by: Big Jim at December 23, 2005 09:31 AM

You all need to get off this shit. It wakes you up but your body gets used to the shit and if you dont have it you feel like shit. Its a costly habbit. I would much rather spend the money on a hooker.

Posted by: Bret Lott at January 3, 2006 12:35 AM

uhm...i'm not too sure about drinking energy drinks and reading the most up-to-date comments, it seems like it can cause problems. the box label doesn't recommend more then "one/day". i'm thinking "one/week" after high workouts. should it keep addiction/medical problems away? =\ stupid question i know, but it'll make me feel better with other people's input

Posted by: Charles at January 8, 2006 06:08 PM

For all those out there buying energy drinks all the time just be informed.
Your money could be better spent elsewhere, while obvious it is so commonly overlooked and ignored. Stick to relying on them on the days you are going to try and tackle a large amount of work. Also, know that if you continuously consume caffeinatted beverages your body's normal mechanics will cease thus leading to the "I need one to function" state. Do your research! Realize that flooding your system with large volumes of caffeine is pointless a lot of the time due to the information regarding adenosine receptors in your body. If some of you would be more conscious of the amount of money you are putting into buying these drinks and think about more useful expedentures such as investing, mutual funds/IRA accounts etc. You would be amazed at the growth of small sums of money over long periods of time. I will reiterate this point, it is safe as long as it is not abused. Much of America wakes up to a glass of coffee(caffeine). I say use it only when you need the extra pick-up and for the rest of the days just drink a good amount of water and get the proper amount of nutrition. And if possible get your lazy ass up and go run, exercise people it will do wonders for your quality of life.

And the cheapest way of all...MASTURBATE!..most of you do it anyway so wait (if you can prolong your exorbitant indulgence of self-gratification that long) until you are getting tired to do so. It is the "quicker picker upper" (no pun intended) and can work to give you a bit more effective time and sometimes you can catch a second-wind off it.

So now i'm done and still up right now possibly due to the rockstar I had a couple hours ago, or maybe the no-doze that I washed down with the rockstar. Either way it's been a while since i've purchased either. And my investments are growing as I type.

Answer:--Very

i like rockstar energy drink, the only difference from other drinks i noticed is there is like a small coffee taste almost, its one of those drinks that are better holding your nose when you drink it, i prefer monster though

Posted by: adam5 at January 31, 2006 03:58 PM

full throttle:Fury is the best, before, i was a total Rockstar fan. you gotta try Fury tho, way better taste. kind of orange, kind of like a cherry slushie without the slush...way good!

Posted by: hannah at February 9, 2006 12:09 PM

I have to admit that it does taste alot like redbull, but has queit a kick in comparison. The lable does say that it is one of the most powerful energy drinks in the world, and I agree (I've never actually seen a drink with so many drugs and energy herbs on the label before...)
Well, to sum it all up I'd jave to say that this energy drink is pretty "okay".

If you have a Ralph's Supermarket by you, I suggest you switch to Rip It. Same results as Rock Star and good taste, but...are you ready? Just 79 cents for the 12 OZ can!!! Can't beat that price on any energy drink anywhere that I've seen.

Posted by: WiredMike at March 19, 2006 05:38 PM

Rockstar is pretty cool cause all the stars have been seen carrying it, but it doesn't taste nearly as good as Diesel and is less powerful (Diesel has 6000 horsepower or miligrams of energy components). That REALLY ROCKS!

Posted by: John at March 23, 2006 04:32 PM

Buzzwater owns but it tastes just like water. Red Bull is smaller and still has the same amount of shit as Rockstar. Bawls owns Rockstar anyday but Buzzwater overall has way more caffeine than any of these drinks.

Posted by: cory at March 31, 2006 12:09 PM

I like rockstar. Gives you lots of energy and a strong kick. Probably my favourite energy drink. It is about the same as Monster but I choose this one just because it's a bit cheaper in price.

Posted by: AzNightmare at March 31, 2006 06:43 PM

Rockstar is by far the best Energy Drink I have tried and it has so many other ingredients....It Rocks- I do wish the can looked a little less like a beer can! The cola flavor really tastes like cola. My brother from San Antonio intruduced me to my first Rockstar and I have been drinking it ever since.

Dr Gors/random other doctor claims when your obviously a kid,

You were asked to leave because you posted under tons of different names while making all sorts of crazy claims with no links or evidence to back it up. If you claim the drinks energy drinks are unsafe PROVE IT, link to some research, link to other articles, prove your point. Dont just claim with all caps (EnErgy dRinKs aRe THE LAME! They 4 All Bad. None of that bullshit ok.)

There is really no research outside of drinking energy drinks with alcohol to show anything really negative. If you claim there is back it up or I will continue to be forced to limit your posts. (to perhaps at least only once a week)

I have yet to find an energy drink that acually does anything for me... I don't know, I've been drinking coffee since I was a kid, I think my body is numb to caffeine. I could drink 3 red bulls and still fall asleep. People tell me "Oh, try this one! I just drink half a can and I'm wired for the day!" I drink 2 full ones, and still doze off. The only thing I've found that seems to keep me awake is cold medicine. You know, the kind that says "may cause drowsiness." yeah. wierd.

Posted by: Clint at April 7, 2006 09:41 AM

I started drinking Rockstar everyday for about two weeks now. Before I would drink a diet Red Bull, maybe one every three days or so. I have really bad thyroids "Hy-po" So I am taking them for energy. Because anyone who knows about "Hy-Po" you have no energy and gain weight all the time. And not because you have a eating problem. But I have notice that lately I'm been sick of my stomach a lot. I'm just wondering if any one with "hy-po" has experience this. And what has Rockstar done to you.

Posted by: Nae at April 7, 2006 12:14 PM

Posted by: Cameron at April 18, 2006 07:25 PM

I just want to say that I do not, in any way, work for Rockstar, but I'm totally addicted to them. I mean, I will literally wake up and crave Rockstars, even a week after I quit drinking them because I know I shouldn't.
However, diet Rockstar (which is what I drink) has several good ingredients in it like Milk Thistle, which has shown to prevent or even reverse liver damage, and it also has something called "siberian ginseng" or eleutherococcus senticosus which seems to be very good for the human body- you can read about it at http://alternativehealing.org/ci%20wu%20jia.htm, or google it.
Another thing-- For those people who say that we could be spending our 2 or 3 dollars on other things besides energy drinks, which have shown to be pretty damn safe, we could be spending our money on other things, like cigarettes, which are deadly (Although I'm sure many people on this forum smoke, I'm personally a non-smoker and therefore think I am spending my money in a good way when it comes to Rockstar.)
However, like I said, to diet Rockstar, I am addicted. I definitely think its better than all the other energy drinks-- even Stinger-- ...Lost is almost up there but Rockstar wins everytime. Its the only one I literally crave.

Posted by: Rocko at April 27, 2006 02:47 PM

Im 29 yrs.old and used to drink a couple of energy drinks a day.One day was feeling sick and then started to puke up blood,lots of blood!I went to the ER,and was diagnosed with stomach ulcers.I lost so much blood I had to have 2 pints of someone elses.There is nothing more disgusting then emptying a full stomach of fresh blood over and over again while thoughts of dieing run through your mind.I wont drink another energy drink as long as I live!I highly recommend that you shouldnt either.Now that Ive stopped drinking them and healed up Im doing fine.PLEASE STOP BEFORE IT HAPPENS TO YOU!

Posted by: Jason at May 2, 2006 09:23 PM

Rockstar is yummy, however Monster is yummier! I'm taking one with me fishing today. I may let some of the fish drink a little, but I'm not 100% sure yet. We'll see. I'll keep everyone posted. I'm curious, which do you think they'll like better? Rockstar or Monster? or should I stop on the way and pick up a Red Bull? Who knows. I'll think about it. Okie Dokie. TTYL.

Posted by: Vinnie at May 4, 2006 04:42 AM

I think that this energy drink(rockstar) in particular is okay. If one drinks coffee every morning, then why not drink one of these with added benefits like the herbs. However, it does contain a lot of acid, so I only drink these under extreme measures like studying all night or having to work on a few hours of sleep. I take herbs anyhow, so I usually just stick to my coffee. But what I like about this drink in particular is the added bonus of milk thistle, ginko, etc. It completely cured my hangover once, and the taste is good with a mild peppermint flavor which was real soothing to my hangover. Plus, it really does it's job by waking me up. I don't think it should be drunk everyday though.

I had a terrible experience with rockstar. I had one the other night, didn't even drink the whole thing. Suddenly my arms and legs started tingling, it was hard for me to breathe. It was like I was having a panic attack except with these odd heart palpitations. I was scared for my life. I ate a bunch of food to try and help the symptoms, which finally wore off I was left scared and confused but when to sleep knowing I'd never drink one again. However, the next day I ended up in the hospital because of serious heart palpitations, shortness of breath, numbess of face and hands, disorientation, nausea and sweats. They ran many tests and because of no previous heart conditions or anything else that could cause my symptoms, thay said it must have been the rockstar. Now I'm not saying rockstar is bad for everyone, but I hesitate to recommend it to anyone. Try taking a 20 minute run to get some energy.


For the record, heart palpatations haven't gone away and are now a daily nucence.

Posted by: monster at June 1, 2006 09:03 PM

I dont know, Rockstar definetly has what it takes to pump you up but it has such a crapy shitty taste tho. I personaly dont care much about the taste of energy drinks cause all I need from them is the pain blocking caffeine for lifting/running but any sane person, I just cant see them agreeing with that Rockstar tastes good. Also for the users who drink this shit every day, please take it easy, depending on this thing for your energy isnt good and the withdrawal or when the caffeine expires in your body is pretty bad. THe better alternative is to just take up running. Get shitload of more energy from that then anything else.

Posted by: Casual Energy Drink Sceptic at June 9, 2006 08:55 AM

Not a big fan of this one. I actually think it's among the worst I've tried. Tastes too much like Coke. Strangely, I think it made the muscles in the back of my neck tighten up for a while. I didn't feel like finishing the rest of what was basically more highly caffeinated Coke, so I poured it out.

Posted by: Colin at June 20, 2006 07:05 PM

Posted by: Lisa at July 1, 2006 02:35 PM

Rockstar rules!!! If u can live without the sugar (which u should) I highly recommend the Diet Rockstar!! It actually tastes better. What sets Rockstar apart from the others and even the pioneering Red Bull, is that Rockstar packs way more natural vitamins then it's competitors. Read the labels yourself :) For those asking about long term effects: Long term and excessive consumption of Taurine can cause hypertension and high blood pressure, so take it easy :)

Posted by: Vince at July 10, 2006 07:22 AM

CAFFEINE IS NOT THE LEADING INGREDIENT IN ROCKSTAR! It's third behind Taurine (first) and Guarana (second)

Posted by: Lenny at July 11, 2006 12:57 PM

OMG. best ever, maaanns. I am obsesseed with rockstar. but i like the diet ones. it is like adderall. I payed so much for RX of ritalin, adderall, concerta, ect before it started drinking rockstar and well it does the same thing. Uppers by day downers by night. its amazing. I can stay awake all day. Im like a freaking vampire. Its sooo fun. I love it when you drink like 6 cans and start tripping out. lol. its fun stuff. It kicks tiny redbulls ASS!! oh. dear. I love the surge of engergy it runs through you.

Posted by: Erikita at July 18, 2006 04:37 PM

On Rockstar I will give taste a 1,an the energy a 100,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This is a great drink if you're looking for energy.
But this is a bad drink if you are looking taste.
One day when my cousin and I stayed up all night,we
went to Kroger and got it and When I took the first
sip,it tasted horrible but I felt the energy go through my body.But it tasted so bad I only drank
3/4 of the can.I recomend it to all of the energy drink fanatics out there like me.

Posted by: Randy at July 19, 2006 08:39 PM

For anyone concerned about the color of your urine from drinking Rockstar... that is only from the vitamin B in it. If you take a vitamin B supplement all by itself, it will do the same thing. Vitamin B is a bright yellow and readily passes through your system.

Posted by: NY Joe at July 20, 2006 12:19 PM

does anyone know if mixing vodka and rockstar together will taste the same or give you the same effect as red bull and vodka?

I love rockstar....everyone in my family drinks them i am 14 and my mom and dad are 28 my sisters (one is 3 and one is 12) love the drink to but recently my mom, me and my 12 year old sister have developed hair in weird places...like our upper lip and we shave our legs and armpits and the hair grows back the same day!!! are arm hair is about 2 inchs long and i belive this is a side effect we drink any where from 2 to 5 energy drinks a day i realize this is not goood but they taste soooooo goooood! is this hair a side affect? help.

Posted by: Brittney White at August 16, 2006 09:31 AM

I am 99.9% sure that extra body hair is not a side effect of rockstar energy drink. If that were the case, people would be complaining about it, but since we are not 14 as you are, we know better. Once you get into a biology class (when you -finally- make it to high school), you'll understand. Maybe.

Anyway, as for the energy drink itself, I am a convert from Red Bull. I drank it almost every day to be able to function when I had early classes. The first time I tried Rockstar I was still a Red Bull afficionado, and the cherry-cough-syrup-aftertaste repulsed me. However, I bought a second can a while after that and really enjoyed it. It's loaded with B-vitamins (which is probably why your urine turns a bright yellow-green after you drink it), and it's less sickly-sweet than other soft drinks. Typically in one day I can drink 3-4 soft drinks (usually mello yello or mountain dew), and by sipping on one of these babies I get less caffeine. Unless I am looking for a pep-up to get me through a long day of college nonsense, then I drink it fast.

Posted by: Oh! at August 30, 2006 05:51 PM

I've tried them all...and I love diet rockstar. I have been drinking it since February; 2-3 cans a day. The stuff keeps me going without changing my personality!!!

Interesting what Brittney posted...I am having similar, strange, rapid hair-growth issues. Maybe I will take a look at the side effects of each ingredient to see if I am getting too much of something.

Oh no...I don't want to cut back!!!!

Posted by: tangled at September 7, 2006 12:35 PM

I just tried a von dutch and its really doing some weird stuff to me. I really can feel the energy leaving my body. I'm exhausted and all I'm trying to do is homework. Anybody ever have that happen before?

Posted by: Steven West at September 11, 2006 03:52 PM

Nobody is talking about how amazing Rock Star JUICED is! Oh my gosh, this stuff is amazing. There is not nasty bitter taurine flavor like in Red Bull and other energy drinks. The combo of juice flavors totally masks that bitterness. I'm so hooked! My local grocerer carries a 4 pack box for $5.99 ($1.50/can) where ordering it online on their site (http://www.rockstar69.com) is a 24 case for $48 ($2.00/can). Hmmmm...me thinks they are screwin' people there. So...dont' order it online, unless you have to!

im wondering does rockstar make you gain weight, the other day my boss stopped and told me dude drinking that(my rockstar) will make you get fatter, is this true, i probably shouldnt drink it but it does taste good and definatley better for your money then red bull, i usually use it for when im working night shift when i need to stay up,

although im a normal insomiac, i still drink it for energy, and since i have always needed pills for sleeping it hasnt made a difference,

im wondering is there any known cases of it causing weight gain, if any of you people out there no more about this stuff medically please email me

rockstar sucks. i will admit that it has lots of flavor, but the boost is zip. zero. nada. you may as well just buy pop if you want flavor

The comment at the beginning about Full Throttle and Rockstar, they both belong to Coke, they cant compete lol. Either way kik ass drink

Im working on a rockstar project and I want to find out the top reasons why rockstar drinkers choose it and how/why they started and sticked to it.

Please rockstar lovers can you help me out?

Posted by: Dana at October 25, 2006 05:50 PM

Well after reading all the comments on this page, which were very good, I just had to smile.
I myself enjoy the hell out of Rockstar. Something about it is addicting indeed. I have at least one a day if not two.
Anyhow,
Happy Drinking, what ever you choose...

Fuck Rockstar. It's made by Michael Wiener (a.k.a. Michael "Savage"...he had to change his last name because the truth hurts).

Every penny you give to RockStar goes towards killing Palestinians.

I used to drink one RockStar a day for months. I started to come down with severe stomach ailments, like I had food poisoning. This happened 3 or 4 times in the span of a year. I then realized I was drinking too much of this swill and stopped. I never experienced the stomach ailment again. This is no joke: RockStar rots your guts. It's filled with sugar and other shit that, taken in high doses, WILL give you health problems. It's also filled with Zionism and kills Palestinians daily. It's EVIL!!!

Don't drink RockStar or GOD will kill you!!!

RockStar is the best drink out there. It contains herbs that no other has after the buzz wears off.

I'm extremely sensitive to caffeine and Rs is the only Energy drink that doesn't make me sick or grumpy.

As one poster mentioned, not only were the creators of RS nutritionists, they were herbologists - the father having a Phd in nutrition and herbs. That is why it's the best and nothing else can touch it.

PS You'll also notice that Diet RS is the only Energy drink that is frequently sold out.

Posted by: RSMan at October 29, 2006 07:44 PM

Thanks for the info on that Palestinian situation. I'M BUYING MORE ROCKSTAR!! LOTS!!

Why did they make Rockstar to look like dog piss? I turned my pee bright yellow, no thanks. It doesn't taste much better. Sobe no Fear is much better.

Posted by: Matt at December 12, 2006 10:23 AM

I buy rockstar in a 24 oz can for $2.69 slam one of these and you will feel just like a porn star!

Posted by: ron jeremy at December 15, 2006 04:11 PM

OOOOOook. In my opinion, this is one of, if not THE greatest energy drink on the market. The flavor is divine compared to some of the other ones out on the market, the energy factor is amazing, and it overall well, rocks (NO PUN INTENDED) Great alone but goes great with a Vault and an AMP

You people are idiots.

Posted by: Zeromus at January 6, 2007 08:07 PM

And the only reason your urine turns bright yellow is because of the B vitamins. Learn something, how about it.

Posted by: Zeromus at January 6, 2007 08:08 PM

You guys should try this new drink called Torque its like a lemon lime with a jolly rancher after taste. I drink everything but I ma hooked on this one right now and oh ya it has alcohol in it so its even better. Its similar to sparks but fills the void where sparks left off. Okay look it up try it!

Ok so i just drank rocstar.......with a few of my friends n then we went in ahot tub n now were all drowsy and dizzy.....i think the rockstar had something to do with it.

Posted by: SATINEAL at January 13, 2007 11:49 PM

Rockstar is my favorite enrgy dirnk!! although i disagree about it tatsing like red bull

Posted by: Andrew at January 15, 2007 10:13 PM

ROCKSTAR ROCKS. heres a commercial for rockstar: If you dont like rockstar then FUCK you.

Rockstar really does rock when your rocking out at OZZFEST 2005 \../

Posted by: John at January 18, 2007 02:07 PM

Hey, I drink rockstar every time i go to play paintball... It tastes great but it has nasty side effects, Dont get me wrong it has an awsome kick. But you gat a crash and a stomach ache if you dont have anything to absorb all those chemicals.. I do have quite an addiction to tham and it has taken quite a toll on me... Like the past few mornings, I have woken up a 3-5 am and this is when i had a rockstar the night before... Its all about personal prefrence folks...

Posted by: paintballer POV at February 4, 2007 06:43 AM

RockStar is the best. what I like is the vitamins - its not just the caffeen - but the added B's B12 B6 etc.. that make it so great there is the up but not that crash down when it wears off like you get with other drinks ( red bull ) but RockStar had the gental down - they just really need to do something about the price.

Posted by: Amy at February 10, 2007 01:05 PM

Rockstars are amazing.
i love the taste and the way it makes me feel.
i know they arent exactly good for you..but at im not worried about it.
Rockstars are an addiction once you start drinking them regularily...
but i dont mind.
i think its better than smoking.

i used to HATE rockstars...before i ever tried one. all my friends would drink them but i always thought they smelt like stomach acid..so i never had one.
but once i did i was instantly hooked.
:)

Posted by: Tracie at February 13, 2007 04:23 AM

I love Rockst*r, ever since I've started drinking it I can't stop. I pay $10 for a case of four every week because I just love how much energy it gives me. I swear this thing has speed in it, it makes me feel so euphoric. This is a drink for all rock stars out there, like me.

Posted by: Rose at February 19, 2007 04:12 PM

Rockstar is my favorite energy ever. wow only $2?!? where do you live?? i live in ketchikan ak and they cost $3.67 here... it sucks...

Posted by: Andrew at February 25, 2007 11:59 PM

Hey....I just got back from the store. The shelves were almost empty of the Rock Stars and I asked the clerk what was going on. She said the provider told her that they were being disconinued. Tell me this isn't so!!!! All the other energy drinks are crap!!!

Posted by: Roger at March 4, 2007 10:47 AM

hmm all this is interesting. I tried rockstar and it wasn't to bad. i prefer monster though. and people are getting confused. rockstar has to types of energy drinks regular and the one with alcohol. I tried the alcoholic one and it was terrible. the reg one wasn't to bad. the ones i cant believe people buy are the small cans. hell if im gonna spend $2 on one im gonna get a 16 oz.

Posted by: PO at March 4, 2007 04:05 PM

XS energy drink... beats out all other energy drinks in sale except for redbull.. and you can't buy it in stores, and is much more healthier than all those.

4900% vitamin B12 I believe Red bull only had 80% and is loaded with sugar, XS is not. theres what i gotta say, enjoy

Posted by: Grinde at March 11, 2007 05:39 PM

Man you guys are fucking psycho, "diziness and chest pains and hard too breath"...I drink 2 and fall asleep...and I dnt drink but 1 or so a week, and I'm not but 145 lbs...no energy buzz, no fucking heart attacks...but the juiced and guava taste good so I drink em sumtimes

Posted by: tom at March 18, 2007 01:57 AM

This stuff has an awful aftertaste. It tastes like Red Bull at first and then has this taste like cough syrup. Avoid this stuff, it's aftertaste isn't worth it, drink Monster instead.

Posted by: CCCP at March 18, 2007 04:26 PM

OMG!!! I had ROCKSTAR for the first time this morning and it was amazing. My friend and i decided to buy a 4pack and we are drinking the other two tonight. All week I have only gotten a few hours of sleep each night and i felt a definate boost of engery after drinking it!!

Posted by: Amanda at March 30, 2007 09:35 AM

YO! Rockstar was the first E-drink i tasted. Although i didn't get into them until a while later, I loved it then and love it now. i think it tastes like moxacilin, you know that pink medicine that you took as a kid. Yeah moxacilin was delicious....

Posted by: bryan at March 30, 2007 04:49 PM

I love this stuff. The first few cans were nasty(they were sitting around for a few months though).Rockstar was the first enegry drink I had. Now I drink a it when I need the enegry. You can't chug it like coke or even monster. I do like the taste of it though. I had 3 cans one night before I had to do stage crew for a show. I had no side effects. I was a whole lot more awake and alert though.

This is the best stuff around.

Posted by: Bigpete666 at April 4, 2007 07:35 PM

AM I THE ONLY ONE THAT THINKS ROCKSTAR TASTES LOUSY? IT TASTES LIKE SICKLY SWEET BUBBLE GUM OR COTTON CANDY, AND NOT IN A GOOD WAY. I LOVE RED BULL AND SOBE ADRENALINE RUSH IS MY 2ND FAVORITE. ROCKSTAR IS TERRIBLE!

Posted by: Brad B at April 5, 2007 02:02 PM

rockstars are the best.
yeah you should drink them.
if you dont...well then i would have to say that you are physco.
but yeah i love them...
i buy them daily.
and so should you.
they're addicting.
DRINK THEM.

Posted by: [[shanii]] at April 19, 2007 11:43 AM

You're not supposed to have one everyday. If you're gonna choose to have it constantly in a short amount of time with out breaks then it's you're own damn fault if you get sick. GO ROCKSTAR!

Posted by: DumDumPoo at April 23, 2007 12:03 AM

Hey all you hoes? Why dont you ride my rock hard cock right now? I love rockstar

Posted by: RAWR! at April 27, 2007 12:26 PM

Just so no one else worries anymore about the different colour of your urine after drinking a rockstar or any other energy drink, that is from the excess of B vitamins. Your body has a hard time absorbing them and it sheds the excess through urine, giving it that bright colour. Same thing happens if you are on a multi-vitamin. So, no worries there.

Posted by: Martin at May 4, 2007 10:05 AM

ROCKSTAR IS THE BEST ENERGY DRINK. All the stores around my house used to have it, but they replaced rockstar with bookoo shit. Tasted the bookoo and it sucks. Bring back my Rock.

Posted by: darrin dougles at May 10, 2007 07:24 AM

yum... rockstar is so good!!!! a friend bought me one today since i was complaining in art class how tired i was... couldnt thank him enough!!!
only thing is... well i think that ive only tried 2 different kinds of Rockstar... and the are pretty good, just the taste is kinda weird and funky.... any suggestions on the best flavor??? PLUS... i get kind of a head rush that lasts for 3 hours or longer, and a weird feeling in my stomach... is that normal... plus i usually cant drink a whole can, just like half or something, and i have to share it with a friend... soo... all in all, i love Rockstar... but is there an even BETTER flavor??? post something, or email w/e thanks guys!!! and what a great site!!

im in love with this drink.

that is all

Posted by: sam at June 23, 2007 09:27 PM

The same thing happened to me around here. I went to a circle K close to my house and they asked for my ID when I brought a rockstar to the counter. I said "why, it's just an energy drink" she replied with..."becasue it's an ENERGY DRINK."
I got pissed off and told my friend in the truck to go in and buy it for me...when he went in...she said "I'm sorry sir, I refuse to allow purchase, because I refused his sale"

we both got pissed because there was no proof that he didn't just want one for himself. We probably could have gotten a lawsuit out of it.

Every other store and gas station in my entire area still sell them to me without carding. It just makes no sense. ...because it's an ENERGY DRINK. haha...not funny.

Posted by: Aaron J. at July 5, 2007 06:01 PM

Im never going to drink Rockstar again... I just drank like three of them and I thought I was going to have a heart attack.

Posted by: Kayla at July 21, 2007 02:17 AM

Posted by: pancho at July 21, 2007 01:43 PM

Ohh my I just love rockstars... I have tried all different energy drinks but these are the only ones that I drink... I love totally love the flavor

Posted by: Heather B at July 22, 2007 10:43 PM

"Party like a Rockstar"!!! haha, well not so much when i drink them.

Rockstar drinks = Good for all nighters

wouldn't all college people agree? :)

Posted by: Frankie at August 1, 2007 01:23 PM

I agree that Rockstars are good for all-nighters. I I've only had 3 in my entire life. The first two were used for all-nighter purposes but the other caused some problems. I definitely wasn't expecting anything to happen when I bought a Rockstar and drank it at lunch. I completely went crazy. I felt lightheaded, my stomach hurt, I felt like I was rocking back and forth, and I had major anxiety, stress, and mood swings. These effects lasted for nearly 4 hours after the drink was consumed. I don't know why it happened or how but I know I don't want it to happen again. I bought a Full Throttle yesterday but I haven't drank it yet. I think I'm a bit hesitant to now. I really don't know what is in those things and I think we really should know before we drink. other than that, it's a pretty good drink.

Posted by: Jessica at August 29, 2007 06:20 PM

I love rock star I has been my favorite but I tried a drink in a little red can called cocaine(they recently changed the name)to insert name. It is so addictive , it has a little burn going down but fruity, excellent!!!!Now I have 2 favorites!!!!

Posted by: kim at September 4, 2007 04:33 AM

I've been drinking Rockstar for about 3 weeks.
I like the taste and the energy boost is great.
I'm going to research all active ingredients to see what's potential harmful. You've had a few clowns mention Michael Savage.....I guess his l comments burst the bubble of those brainless liberals who relay so much on the dishonesty of liberal bias media.

Posted by: DON STACY at September 7, 2007 09:28 AM

i also know the people who own it.

drinks should allowed to by every one not just adults

Posted by: some one at October 14, 2007 03:56 PM

I've had my share of energy drinks like red bull, monster, bawls, etc...but in my opinion there hasnt been one that I've ejoyed and actually benefited from like RockStar, the taste is nice, especially the juiced ones and the energy is really good and long lasting 2!

Posted by: Elisa at October 14, 2007 06:05 PM

Rockstar is owned by the son of racist Michael Savage, Russ Weiner...and the weiner family makes up the board of directors....every cent you pay for one of those drinks supports the most ugly base kind of racism.

omg i just finished drinking a 20oz like 30 min ago and im like freaking out im so hyper im scaring my friends i think i have caffien issues

Posted by: Lindsay at January 19, 2008 01:21 AM


I occasionally drink one here & there. i just drank a 24 oz can of "triple strength" (whatever that's worth,lol) Rockstar & i don't feel a thing. I feel like i could lay down & go to sleep. I am working, so i can't. I just don't see all the hype in this energy drink stuff. To me, coffee performs much better. IMO, RS does have a good taste though, no doubt about it.

Posted by: Capt 'n' crunch at February 1, 2008 04:17 AM

I'm drinking Rockstar right now for the first time, and I have come here to see all the reviews to see what I'm in for. I'm a college student with an extremely busy schedule, to the point where I only get a few hours a night (and I don't party). I need the energy boost, so hopefully this works.

Oh, and for flavors, I'm drinking some wild berry type flavor. It's not too bad. It's the zero carb one. Not bad at all =) I like it better than Red Bull, I must say! I'm not one to drink energy drinks, though. This better work! I have a BUSY week ahead of me!

Hello! Good website, check my at http://pharmacy0.110mb.com/glasses my name is glasses

Posted by: glasses at March 11, 2008 02:34 AM

BuzzWater is the best idea for anyone who is health conscious. It has no sugar or wasted additives other than caffeine. It tastes like nothing at all and if you are just looking for that caffeine buzz, it is the only smart choice in the caffeine high seekers. I buy it in bulk from their website at a discount that makes it about 50cents per bottle, which are 20 ounces. It's easily the best!
