Jolt Cola – The Original Energy Drink
Jolt Cola – The Original Energy Drink
Cost: $2.50 for 24oz
Active ingredients: Caffeine
Rating: 6.5 out of 10
Calories: 300

Jolt was created in 1985 as a refreshing alternative to coffee, a.k.a. The Espresso of Colas. Included on every can and bottle was the slogan “Twice the Caffeine.”
I tried the cola today and thought it was ok, not great, not bad either. I am rating in the energy drink reviews because it really was the first beverage out there with enough caffeine to be considered an energy drink (72mg per serving). It was also one of the first new age beverages.
The energy levels are OK and the taste is OK not as good as real Coca-Cola but OK! Did I mention that I thought it was OK?
Jolt cola mixes well with any alcoholic beverage that mixes well with Coke.
