Energy Drink Ratings

genxer36 · 05-05-2009, 02:50 PM

This is a great website for finding info about the different energy drinks. I have used this site in the past, when a new energy drink appears on the shelf.

As a nightshift worker I consume my fair share of energy drinks. Currently as I'm writing this I'm enjoying a Cocaine energy drink to get my night started.

I only drink Red Bull on rare occasions.

I'm not a Doctor or anything but I would assume too many of those things have to be not good for you. But I would have to admit every once and a while I'll have one but not very much, just water for me most of the time. But out of the 2 or 3 times I'll have one in a year I would say the Green colored Monster energy cans are the best or I like them the most out of everything else. They are also good when eating cheese-its!

Thats a pretty awesome website!

I don't drink energy drinks all the time but I do every now and then but $2 or $3 for a drink is a little steep compared to coffee lol

1337Taco · 08-20-2009, 05:44 AM

They didn't have rockstar in there..

97Blk_one · 08-20-2009, 05:45 AM

You can get the same effect from sugar,load them up..bottom up...

mjp2 · 08-20-2009, 06:22 AM

Best of all, it tastes like Smarties candy.

rutherk1 · 08-20-2009, 06:26 AM

There is so much marketing behind these energy drinks. They are all just about the same. This is where I usually get my source.

Look at the top of the list. Starbucks. Thats the way to go. The sucralose, aspartame, etc, in some of these energy drinks really can bog you down.

Although Moster is the best tasting liquid on the planet.

sockmonkey · 08-20-2009, 06:41 AM

i get these from a buddy with a supplement business (muscularsynergy.com)

cherry flavor

i use one before riding mountain bikes......fantastic energy levels.

it's just B-12 (something like 33,000% of daily req)

i'm sure you piss most out after a couple of hours, anyway

i love this stuff

420Tacoma · 08-20-2009, 06:53 AM

Interesting site.. Red Bull does it for me, but only once in a while. $4 for a 16oz can is bit much. Anyone try the Red Bull Cola?

07trd4x4 · 08-20-2009, 06:58 AM

JOOSE!!!! Www.drinkjoose.com and coffee black coffee

stucksucksnayota · 08-20-2009, 07:01 AM

What about the 5 hour energy shots? Anybody used those? Do they work?

WhatThePho? · 08-20-2009, 07:11 AM

Lost and Monster are my personal favorite. I need one every Morning, either that or Coffee.

420 tacoma, Red Bull cola is NASTY

i use 5-hour as well as B-12 shots.

the difference is 5-hour has caffeene

it works nicely, though (i usually sip on one all day)

KoruptTaco · 08-20-2009, 07:30 AM

I usually take half a 5 hour power about mid afternoon when i start getting groggy. doesn't really give me loads of energy, just gets me bak to normal and not feeling like im going to fall asleep at the wheel. thats all i need

Rudbwoy7s · 08-20-2009, 01:28 PM

I usually just stick to coffee but energy drinks are a good pick me up when I'm on the road.
