Energy drink at a great price

Advantages: Cost, Taste
Disadvantages: Not available in pubs's and club's

...This review is on ?Emerge Energy Drink? As I sit here and write this review I wonder how this drink can be sold for 24p which is a saving of over £1.00 if compared to its nearest rival. Now is that because it?s poor taste, nasty ingredients or something else! Well I hope to explain that to you during this review. I am not someone who often reviews food and drink products, so sorry for the layout. I am just reviewing it in the order I like to read. About Emerge Emerge is sold in the UK in most supermarkets, coming in single cans or as part of a multipack you can expect to notice this drink in its bright orange can. Emerge is manufactured and distributed from Derby in England. The company responsible for the production of this drink are Cott, on their website they claim to be one of the largest non alcohol drinks. Cott...

Review of Emerge Energy Drink

This could "EMERGE " as the best energy drink!

Advantages: Ok tasting and seems to give a little energy boost.
Disadvantages: Full of sugar and calories.

...I am not nor have I ever been very big into energy drinks but as I get older in years and heavier in weight I seem to rely on them more and more to get me through my hour of five aside football every week. I loathe paying the price for things like red bull and the other leading brands so I often resort to Asda`s own and things like that but the new kid on the block for me is one called Emerge. Emerge is a typical energy drink both in appearance as well as taste, it comes in a long thin can like most other energy drinks and if it were served ice cold in a glass to me I would swear blind it was red bull as there is little or no difference when cold, but if it is not ice cold then there is a bit of a bitterness about the taste in my opinion and I have never noticed this with red bull. Energy drinks are basically soft drinks with added...

Review of Emerge Energy Drink

Party like a rockstar with rockstar energy drink

Advantages: It's not too pricey for the 500ml can - tastes pretty good - gives a great energy boost
Disadvantages: I've only managed to find it in Tesco

...Ok So how many Energy drinks do we have out there now, I think I?m having trouble keeping up. Well here?s another one for you called Rockstar. Not too dissimilar to other energy drinks out there, Rockstar essentially is a soft drink that everyday people drink to aid physical activity. The ingredients used in these drinks such as caffeine, vitamins and other herbal supplements are blended together to provide the drinker with a greater stimulant effect over and above that of caffeine alone, increasing mental alertness and overall physical performance. So how did Rockstar come about? Rockstar was first created in 2001 in Las Vegas Nevada and is now sold world wide including the UK where it was launched after a 2 year preparation period. It has become part of the Coca-cola company through a distribution agreement in the USA...

Review of Rockstar Energy Drink

Rockstar Energy Drink

Advantages: It's fairly cheap and serves its purpose as an energy drink.
Disadvantages: Slightly nasty taste followed by an even nastier aftertaste.

...Rockstar Energy Drink About this drink: Well apart from the immediate "Rockstar make drinks since when?" reaction, then followed by the immediate disappointment when you realise it's not the same Rockstar Inc, there's nothing incredibly noteworthy about this drink. It DOES claim to be "Double the size, double the kick", presumably being the larger brother of a 250ml can, but despite being advertised on their website, I've never myself seen such a can. Another "interesting" little snippet is that not only is there an "Original flavour" (which I can only presume tastes vile), you can also get your grubby little mits on guava, mango, pomegranate, and, wait for it, coffee flavours. Yes, that's right. Coffee flavoured caffeine. What will they think of next(!) Appearance, aroma, argh? To the eye: It's a rather worrying yellow colour...

Review of Rockstar Energy Drink

IF YOU WANT TO ROCK ALL NIGHT-DRINK ROCKSTAR ENERGY DRINK

Advantages: It is a good energy drink
Disadvantages: none

...ROCKSTAR ENERGY DRINK. I am always looking for different energy drinks for my daughter who needs them to maintain her energy levels because she has ME.. This energy drink contains the powerful herbal ingredients of Guarana,Ginkgo,Ginseng and Milk Thistle which when all these ingredients are put together they can provide an amazing energy drink for anyone who needs an energy boost. Also there is caffeine in the drink as well. The best way to enjoy the drink is to have it chilled. It is very refreshing and it is not too fizzy. The mango flavour one yes you taste the mango and also the one that has guava in it. There is also another drink which has pomegranate in it but that one I did not enjoy as much neither did my daughter but it does depend on the individual and their taste. There are many different flavours to choose from...

Review of Rockstar Energy Drink

A great value energy drink

Advantages: cheap, delicious, can be drank while running
Disadvantages: High in sugar, fattening

...Tesco Active Isotonic Sports drink comes in cherry, tropical and blueberry flavours, and whilst they are all nice the cherry flavour is by far and away the best tasting. The drink is very thirst-quenching and full of glucose and electrolytes, meaning that it is ideal for giving you an extra energy boost while exercising or for rehydrating yourself in hot weather, and is also useful for boosting concentration during lectures or whilst at work. Each bottle comes with a nozzle meaning that the bottle can be squeezed and the drink squirted, making it ideal for use when out jogging. A four pack will set you back around £1.50, which at under 40 pence per bottle makes them far cheaper than their more upmarket brand equivalents Powerade and Lucozade. The drink's high sugar content means that it is not particularly healthy, but is ideal...

Review of Tesco Cherry Isotonic Sports Drink

Rockstar Energy Drink! Party like a rockstar.

Advantages: Generous sizing, gives you a BOOST of energy and tasty.
Disadvantages: Possibly harmful in copious amounts.

...Rockstar Energy Drink! Good for a pick me up when one is feeling a little bit low in the old energy banks and generally quite a nice drink. However some of you may be put off by the slight hitch that energy drinks have a slight tendency to be a bit unhealthy for you. Rockstar is distributed by the Coca Cola company and is marketed on the premise it allows you to 'party like a rockstar' and the novelty large beercan style sizes of the energy drink in question. One can't help but notice the subtle correlation between Rockstar and alcholic beverages that they seem to market and 'party like a rockstar' sounds alot like they're suggesting Rockstar can have drug-like qualities. As with all energy drinks Rockstar has that sort of fizzy, exotic fruity taste. Quite a sharp taste but one that I expect is a damn sight nice than the actual rather...

Review of Rockstar Energy Drink

So what, I drink rockstar, but I`m not hyper...tralala

Advantages: Tastes nice and comes in a good looking tin.
Disadvantages: Does not do much for energy levels in my opinion.

...Energy drinks come in so many fashions these days, probably the most popular or at least the most well known is Red Bull, then you have all the others that are looking for a piece of the energy drink market with everyone from the Lucozade brand down to asda and Tesco themselves offering drinks that will supposedly fill you with energy. I have yet to see any positive proof that these really do give you any more energy than that, that you would get from any other fizzy drink and it is basically all down to the glucose and sugar contents these drinks have, which is also why they all taste so sickeningly sweet. So then is there an energy drink out there that I do like then? Well yes actually there is and it goes by the name ?Rockstar?. The Rockstar energy drink has a much less sweet taste to it, it is still sweet of course but nowhere...

Review of Rockstar Energy Drink

32 Flavours in 1 energy drink - Irn Bru 32

Advantages: Tasty energy drink
Disadvantages: None for me

....? Typical values per 100ml: Energy ? 202 kj / 47 kcal, Protein ? 0g, Carbohydrate ? 11.5g, Fat ? 0g, Vitamins - Niacin 8mg (44% RDA), Pantothenic acid 2mg (33% RDA), B6 2mg (100% RDA), B12 2µg (200% RDA) RDA = Recommended Daily Allowance So what does it taste like? I like to try differebnt energy drinks but this has to be my favourite. I love Irn Bru and this is exactly that but with the added caffine. It tastes much better than many of its rivals, and at 79p for 330 ml compared with 99p for 250ml of Red Bull represents good value. Oh did you know that it origially came in a 250ml can but then they made it bigger. How much bigger, if you?ve not aready guessed it its 32%. I personally find that I would need to drink 2 cans to really feel a difference but it does work. Why not give this one a go sometime?..its Phenomonal. Also...

Review of Irn Bru 32 Energy Drink

BIG BLUE ENERGY BLAST!!!!

Advantages: Does what it says - gave me a BIG blast of energy!
Disadvantages: Horrible taste, gave me a headache, I don't like the lid, too much sugar for me

...this drink really helpful for getting her from start to finish. To be extra helpful, I've interviewed her about the drink, below... Interview With a Happy Customer Q: Why did you decide to buy this drink in the first place? I love sports drinks that are brightly coloured, dunno why, they just look nice, I suppose. I was attracted to the blue-ness of this one, it wasn't too expensive so I decided to give it a go. Also my swimming teacher recommended it. Q: Did you like it when you drank it? Yeah. I liked the taste. Also I thought it gave me some energy so good for swimming. Q: Do you think it's worth the price? Er, yeah. It's only about a quid and the bottle can be reused for water if you're not doing a race or anything. I'd say give it a go, its my favourite energy drink. Q: What would you say to...
