It is winter across the U.S. and our thoughts often wander to sunny, sandy locales where the days are hot and the nights hotter. We hoped a can of Cuba's orange passionfruit herbal energy drink would, at least temporarily, transport us to a place of palm trees and energy.
The 12 oz. can is attractively adorned with oranges, the company logo, and an image of the island of Cuba. We liked the understated approach Cuba takes on their can.
When we opened the can, we were greeted by an enticing aroma of oranges, pears, and passionfruit. The flavor matched that of the aroma and was nicely sweetened to boot. The fruity flavors would create a refreshing drink to be sipped at poolside or on the beach either by itself or mixed with rum or vodka.
We experienced a slight boost in energy; nothing too dramatic or too weak. We also did not experience any jitters, either.
