Meh, i can take or leave energy drinks. They tend not to have any effect on me whatsoever, as advertised by the fact i once spent a new years eve party caning red bull and vodka and was asleep by 1am

There is mountain dew that is about to be released

tried this earlier. tastes like really cheap nasty lemonade with a hint of washing up liquid. horrible.

i like the monster juiced range. great hangover cure but the amount of sugar in it is unreal. usually go for sainsbury's sugar free red bull knock off as i prefer the taste over the other supermarket knock offs.

Imported into the UK by Troy Corser (the bike racer) who lives next door to me, i've got tons of the st it's quite nice i'd even pay if i had to!

ETA. not sure where you got coconut from though, it should taste closer to pear/passionfruit/grape

I make my own

1l water
25g sucrose
25g glucose
1.6g electrolytes
1g citric acid
200mg caffeine
200mg raspberry ketone

Good enough to fuel me cycling 10 miles in to work

Mountain Dew is awesome.

Frequently purchase it from any of the grocery stores in Chinatown (Manchester)

Ive had a can of that Cocaine energy drink, it was really strong!
It has a come down effect too.

lots of sugary drinks

They all real? The familyt guy one is funny, and I didn't know Dr Pepper made any other drink.

Never heard of most of the above. Remember seeing Clarkson take something on Top Gear for one of the tests, and also that US truck drivers buy speed of some sort in petrol stations?

Ugh. They're all minging. I once had a can of Red Bull and nearly threw up.

I don't have a particularly sweet tooth and the amount of sugar in these drinks makes my teeth rot just thinking about it.

I'd rather brew a potent cup of coffee if I need a caffeine jolt.

not sure, but i'm sure i can continue to cope by waiting 20secs for a tablet to dissolve!

2 x berocca dissolved in red bull is my guaranteed hangover cure!

Yes but if you're driving around... It's quite novel actaully, the tablet sits in the lid until you crack it.

Motorway service stations in France. The French banned Red Bull for so long that there are loads of strange local versions of it, including a revolting mix of cola and coffee which I tried once and it made me gag.
