Energy Drinks

[CRXican]

I personally enjoy the Rockstar energy drink. However, I can't really say it's ever given me energy or help to keep me awake. I like the taste and the neon green urine is kind of amusing. I only drink them on occasion as I like to think that someday I'll feel a burst of energy after drinking one.

Anyone else drink them?

i tend to think that sugar and caffeine are unhealthy so i stay away from them

not to mention even a little caffeine makes me nervous and my heart race

The ones that taste like crap suck... I found this one called Blue Rasberry Stinger... its really good and has a real taste


its too bad im immune to caffiene though nothing gives me a buzz anymore

I drink Red Bull once in a blue moon....if you can't feel a Red Bull, you need to get your insides checked

Not for me.

I don't know about energy, but after playing sports, the energy drinks sure do quench my thirst... if I don't drink them, I'd be drinking water all night afterward and my throat is still dry... not with the energy drinks though...

Rockstars are 16oz, at least twice the amount of Red Bull. Red Bull doesn't do anything either.

I have reduced my soda intake considerably so I decided to have a Rockstar after lunch.

My roommate a couple years ago left a six-pack of Rockstar in his room when he moved out, so I had to take it with me.

The stuff was NASTY. I couldn't even finish one can...I had to throw it all away.

I'm a fan of Bawls myself. It has no Taurine or Ginseng or any of that crap, which usually makes my body temp rise or my skin crawl or my mouth taste like I ate a roll of aluminum foil. The only thing it has is Guarana, which is the primary source of flavoring (and caffiene) in it. And it tastes pretty damn good too. Like fruity Sprite. I've found after I drink a bottle of that I'm up, no question, for two hours minimum, no matter how tired I am or rather was.

Only one I've ever tried is Red Bull. That stuff is NASTY. That pretty much turned me off to trying any other energy drinks.

I have yet to try Bawls, the name just kind of bothers me. They sell cases of it at CompUSSR, lol.

I was a little wary at first too. They're a little pricy unless you order in bulk, but if you can get a taste of one you'll see why I like 'em. Seriously, fruity Sprite. (Not Sprite Remix though. That's like drinking Skittles) It's the tastiest high-caffiene drink out there as far as I'm concerned, if not one of the tastiest sodas out there period.

I drink Red Bull when I really need it...I've had some Rockstars and those are good when you need the extra dose. I don't drink soda or coffee, period.

guarana is the strongest diuretic and I try to avoid it the most...that would be my main beef with bawls I guess, of course I haven't had that in a very long time.

ill stick with coffee.

I also like Rockstar, and a can will help me stay up for a couple of hours if I'm dead-ass tired (as in been awake for 22+ hours)
Otherwise a can only seems to pack slightly more punch than 4 shots of espresso.

same, but maybe very little, i definitely don't feel off the wall when i drink one, i had one once and just sat on my PC all night, not jittery, not anything... i am pretty sure it did nothing.

 

[mpitts]

I like them. I actually like the taste of a lot of them:

Red Bull
Amp
Full Throttle
Crunk!

They are just too expensive.
