OK jolt you were one of the first high caffeine drinks back with original jolt cola. The times have changed though other drinks pack more of a punch with other ingredients and more caffeine in them as well. So I guess your behind on the times. Jolt red is really just a cherry coke, the thing is that it has more caffeine than cherry coke and is a lot sweeter. Imagine a regular soda then mix it almost half and half with grenadine, I mean this has a really cherry syrupy flavor. Maybe not quite as bad as half and half, but pretty strong. To strong of cherry in my opinion. So this is really sweet mixes as well as any cherry coke and pumps you up OK, but less than average. So overall jolt left me a little in need of a recharge.

I disagree. Not only did Jolt do a great job at packaging their product (Man those cans catch your eye), but I think it tastes rather awesome. Jolt Blue, as well. They are my favourite higher energy colas.

I also disagree.. I don't personally like Jolt Blue, but I'm a huge fan of the regular and red. It really is just a sweeter, higher-energy cola in a bigger container, but sometimes that's all you need, baby.

Does anyone else love opening a jolt can too? It's like a f$@#ing bomb

The can of this product is very appealing and attention grabbing. The loud pop it makes when you open the can is a cool effect.

The drink itself tastes very similar to a can of regular soda. It has a lot of caffiene but it comes in pretty big amount of ML where other energy drinks have more caffiene even though they are smaller.

It's a good drink to try out but when in need of serious energy, don't bother with Jolt. It doesn't have enough kick.

this made me and my friends really hyper but than again were only 13 and 14!!! it makes you sick to the stomach if you chug it and it makes you really tired later on!!! it can also be dangerous. My friends brother's dorm mate drank a jolt and his heart stoppped.

I really like the new Jolt Cola. The flavor is pretty much like any other soda, but the size of the beverage definitely gives you the best bang for your buck.

I love the fact that Jolt is back. And with their new 24 oz. containers, I guess they truly have "twice the caffeine" as other sodas.

opening the can is the best part :D

I love this stuff. Well blue, anyway. And the can opening sound is awesome. And it's blue. BLUE.
"Hey mom can I but this random blue drink?"
Now I drink it all the time.
I'm drinking it now.
*twitch* HYPER. XD

Perhaps reviewing Jolt's actual energy drink (Jolt Ultra) would have proved more af a productive review. All of Jolt's other products are just sodas with twice the caffeine. Jolt Ultra on the other hand has twice the caffeine, plus taurine, guarana, ginseng and vitamin B complex. It also has zero calories. It tastes great and is not overly sweet. I would describe it as mild Mtn. Dew-ish in flavor. It is a great value at a couple of bucks for a huge can, plus it is such a cool product. I reuse the can for water.

I like Jolt because it tastes like a normal soda and gives you twice the caffiene. Like most said, but I don't like the tast of energy drinks, you can taste the flavor of all the stuff they put in it. I like the tase of a normal soda thankyou. Thats what Jolt tastes like. It also helps me stay awake in the mornings.

Jolt Ultra's my favorite energy drink! huge awesome can, and yes, the pop when it opens is probably my favorite part too. I also save the cans. It tastes better than any other energy drink I've tried, comes in a larger serving size for around the same price, and not only is there more caffeine, it's natural caffeine not synthetic! :D hells yeah.
