I have had 1 monster a day for best part of 5 years.

I know it's bad, but I do it anyway.

Anyone know which mainstream energy drink has the most of the above ingredients. I drink coffee daily but very little in the way of energy drinks, but so far I've found that the NO2 brand gives me the biggest "kick".

Try at own risk.

Monster baby blue and peach tea ftw. Obv never drink full calorie ones, 25-40cals may be optimal pre work out over 0cal though.

Completely agree that nos seems to do a better job than the rest. And I've drank a lot of energy drinks.

And not that I know directly, but I've heard that cherry nos makes vodka taste like cherry nos even at a vodka:nos ratio of 2:1

Nos sounds like a winner. Never tried it before.

I just picked up a case of Venom Energy drink which has a similar profile to Redbull:

Low Calorie (sugar free) Watermelon Lime:



Tastes heavily like watermelon jolly ranchers with a bite of lime. Just a few sips and I'm feeling the effects.

venom came out when i was in college. they would just drop cases upon cases of the stuff at every fraternity house on gamedays. think it was in aluminum bottles not cans

i liked the purple one and something "mamba", might have been the red one

I've never had an energy drink. I'm pretty sure I would either hate them or become addicted and drink 8 per day or something ridiculous.

They are targeting our youth! E-gad.

Try it, Rexx14.

You just.

Might.

Like.

IT.

lately to save money I've been buying those drink enhancers with caffeine and b vitamins in it. It's very cheap. The only problem is sometimes I get too much caffeine in me.

when I do buy a bottled energy drink this is my go to, can't beat a buck.

anyone know why Amp Organic has nearly double the caffeine as the regular Amp? makes zero sense.

NoS is my favorite, but I expect other people to enjoy RedBull more (blue bull is best bull, followed by the red cranberry then original). Regular blue can of NoS is my normal go-to, but if I see Grape I will pick up a can or two. Cherry tastes a little too strong for a can that big, imo, and someone mentioned an orange citrus can earlier in the thread...it's "meh". They had a black can with white and yellow trim that was somewhat citrus and that was much better than the orange can currently out. I feel like there's a mango flavor out there somewhere too, and I know I've seen a green can at some point in my travels. I don't remember what it was (apple?).



Sometimes I'm in the mood for a regular green Monster, and the red Assault isn't bad either. Actually, the Juice Monsters are pretty good (Orange>Pink>Yellow).

Monster also had something out for a while called Hydro, which was a non-carbonated beverage in a clear plastic container shaped/sized exactly like their 16oz cans. There was yellow, orange, and pink and they had a florescent color that really stood out. They kinda tasted like powdered Gatorade, but I liked them a lot and they had as much kick as a soda-like Monster. I haven't seen these sized cans anywhere anymore, but they do sell larger clear plastic 24oz(?) containers of the Orange and some Blue. It's a bit too much for one sitting, so I tend not to buy them.


I won't drink the zero/low calorie drinks though. If I'm going to kill myself, I'm doing it the right way.

i wish they could can sleep. stuff that made you feel more rested.

I never drink an energy drink if I have to sleep in the next 8 hours.

My local crap supermarket does some ersatz energy drink for about 35c a can.

It tastes like it's made from some sort of radioactive slurry mixed with bubblegum concentrate. Strangely addictive though.

I think some of you are in this movie

When an energy drink created by the military turns his fellow coworkers into violent psychopaths, Desmond, his crush Samantha, and uninfected coworkers Lentworth and Mourad must rise to the challenge and survive an office full of violent coworkers armed with the latest weaponry

I'm down to drinking about 2 cans of monster a week now.

After being one a day for a long time, it's pretty impressive.

Disregard this, I was confusing kick start with amp for some reason

I remember reading about and consuming an energy drink around five years ago that was reputed to have an ingredient in it that inhibited what are generally seen as the negative side effects of high caffeine consumption.

I was probably a rube high on placebo, but it seemed to work. Felt energized without any jitters.

A few minutes googling isn't finding it or refreshing my memory, though, so I'm guessing the FDA said LOL GTFO or sell snake oil like a proper con man.

Come on, Rexx. What's ONE TASTE going to hurt?

Suger free red bull is truth.

sf anything is the aids that itll give you..
