Juice Bolt is a energy drink sold in Mexico and possibly Arizona as a fruit juice with a "BOLT" of energy. Now even though it has white grape juice concentrate and lemon juice concentrate this would definitely be considered a energy drink first. With that being said Juice Bolt Energy is not a bad alternative if you want a energy drink with low calories.
I really felt the taste was the best part of this beverage. The citrus flavor was spot on and refreshing. Quite a big deal for the energy drink category which is not in the thirst quenching business. It does contain a lot of sugar but I've seen products with much more. This drink would go real well with alcohol if your into Red Bull-Vodka's. The kick was weak, I noticed no change at all and I'm sure its not just me. I have no immune superpower to counter caffeine, it still affects me and this one quite frankly didn't.
Bottom Line- I prefer a little more kick in my energy drinks then what Juice Bolt had to offer. It has a good amount of Taurine though I couldn't find out the amount of caffeine it contained. I rated Juice Bolt Energy 7 out of 10 for the refreshing citrus flavor. If your wanting something to get you going though you might choose something else seeing how it may be hard to find.
