First, Mamajuana has our vote as the most intriguing name for an energy drink in 2008. According to the Mamajuana website, Mama Juana is a drink that hails from the Dominican Republic and is created by soaking rum, red wine and honey with tree bark and herbs. Many natives view Mama Juana as an aphrodisiac increasing everything from sexual drive, desire and the male libido. Lets find out how Mamajuana fares.

Mamajuana is available in a 2 oz. brown plastic bottle. The thought that first ran through out collective minds was-how many good thinks come dressed in a brown plastic bottle? The company logo, featuring a palm tree, beach and sun had a Carribean influence to it.

The flavor of Mamajuana was rather intense with what reminded us of dark berries and cherries. We found the drink to be quite sweet as well. Although this beverage is non-alcoholic, we understand why native Dominicans are drawn to it.

The burst of energy we experienced was just that...a burst of energy. The energy rose gradually and lasted quite awhile. None of us experience a sugar crash...true to Mamajuana's claims. As for the sexual enhancement...check back with us later.
