Worst energy drinks I've had have to be the Starbucks line. It's way too bitter, and the flavors just taste off. For a coffee brand, they suck. Monster coffee just tastes nicer, imo.
 
It depends on my taste du jour but I‘ve had Red Bull, Monster, G Fuel (canned and powdered), Ghost, and C4 energy drinks at different points with my current ones being Ghost and powdered G Fuel.
 
Red Bull is tried and true, it's never failed me.
Monster is something I'll drink every now and again, the Boomer Zero Ultra is a winner in my opinion.
If I want a caffeine high I'll drink a Bang but I've come to like the Celsius a whole lot more recently. Zero calories like Bang but with only 100mg of caffeine per can, no jitters or shakes. Their cucumber lime flavor is really quite good, as are the berry and tropical twist flavors.
 
I’m hooked on Ghost energy drinks, all the sour flavors. I have no idea what the Faze clan flavor is going to taste like, but I’ll give it a go.

The Ultra line up as a whole has been pretty good and I've grown more hateful ever since they stopped selling the Ultra Sunrise in this shithole
 
I used to live near one of the few random-ass places in my area that stocked Venom, for whatever reason. They had a mango flavor that was fucking gangbusters, and it helped me through no small number of 6p-2a shifts back in the day. I've started cutting back the last few years, since this stuff can fuck up your circadian rhythm hardcore. With an espresso machine and decent beans, I just don't really find myself craving them as much. Nothing beats them for when you need to be wide-eyed at the assfuck of dawn for whatever reason, or when the party-train needs to keep chugging along and it's only midnight, though.
Maybe nostalgia but I remember it being way better than most other Monster flavours.
It was like, fruit punch or something, right? I feel like most Monster flavors have that really strong acidic taste to them, which is an acquired taste, but this one replaced that with a tangy citrus that made it easier to down. And stupidly easy to mix with shit you really shouldn't, like booze.
 
Yeah it was like a fruit punch, vaguely passionfruit that was nice AF. My country gets fucked in the ass with our small selection of energy drinks, if I ever go to America I'm gonna die of a fucking heart attack after trying all the different flavours we don't get.
 
I quite liked Reign's Jalapeño Strawberry flavor but I can't find that shit anywhere now.
Usually I just get Rockstar Recovery yellow since it's easy to find. Rockstars generally aren't too bad.
The Reign sherbet flavor tastes too much like actual sherbet.
 
Since "worst energy drink" seems to be a frequent topic, I submit Rockstar Horchata flavor. Imagine Horchata. Reasonably subtle creamy cinnamony stuff. Not my go-to but I can understand why people like it.

Now imagine it so bitter and so gross that its completely undrinkable.

I can't find it anywhere now and I know exactly why lmao. This is probably from almost a decade ago now.

It was far and away the worst thing I've put in my mouth much less an energy drink, and I include shiokara, VERY WELL FERMENTED shiokara that tasted extremely strongly of ammonia, on that list, just for clarity. I was able to finish the shiokara.


On the more pleasant topic of things I actually enjoy, I was wondering if anyone ever tried Xyience energy drinks? Didn't see 'em mentioned and they seem to be a bit obscure; I picked up an assortment when I was driving through Montana a while back and was pretty impressed by what I drank considering that they are all sugar free flavors. Haven't seen them west of the Rockies though, but maybe I'm not looking hard enough.

I tried the Cran-Raspberry, which tasted about like it should but was sugar free (that's the hard part) and was un-subtle enough to mix well with a bit of everclear, the Melon, which was a surprisingly decent approximation of the Melon Cream Soda flavor of melon but too subtle for decent mixing with booze, and the Cherry Lime, which I recall wasn't a great mixer but was quite pleasant on its own.

Oh, and the FrostBerry, which tasted a lot like other "frost berry" flavors I've tried, but it wasn't super compelling. None of them tasted like children's chewables though which is the biggest thing when companies start going into "whimsical" flavors and more uh...exotic sweeteners...Bang I'm looking directly at you.

The oddest part is they seem to steadfastly refuse to spend a dime on colors so the drinks are all clear and look like fizzy water. At least it was an interesting change from the oddly sticky colors found in the Monster Pure Zero flavors I like.

After this travesty, I'm going to be too tired in the morning to give enough of a shit to slow down for jaywalking niggers if they take away my punch or mango flavors.
 
Tyson Fury released an energy drink that sells in Iceland (shop, not country) its not too bad. Maybe a little generic. One cool thing released alongside it was energy ice lollies that were good. Perfect thing for a hangover.
There used to be a really great flavour of Monster called Assault but they stopped selling it in my goddamn country. Maybe nostalgia but I remember it being way better than most other Monster flavours.

I still see that monster where I am. It has a camo pattern on it now. Tastes like a nicer version of cola?
 
it pains me to see kids as young as 11-12 drink G-fuel and energy drinks. that stuff will fuck them up in so many ways (rotten teeth, sleeping issues, diabetes, high blood pressure, high heartrate, weight gain etc) caffeine is just legal low-grade coke in the grand scheme of things.

even i as an adult, feel sick drinking that stuff now and makes me way to hyper for my own good. imagine what it dose too kids.

Correct man, that's a good way of describing it. Unfortunately they just don't sell it in my country (not America), but one day I'll taste it again

IDK man, G-Fuel has no sugar in it so the teeth'll be fine and no diabetes risk, but yeah don't want get smashed by too much caffeine too young either way
 
I drink 5 hour energy at the start of my shift, and a Nos at lunchtime. Red bull is for long drives

I LOVED this shit. My most favorite drink of all time and the closest thing that tasted like whipped orange creme drinks. It pissed me off to high Hell when it was discontinued and there's a similar drink to it that's out but it's not as good. If supply chain issues and bullshit finally work themselves out and this drink comes back I'll probably buy 2 cases right off the bat.
 
Any that's lemon/tropical/cola flavored and in a small can, even the cheap low quality ones. I use them as a pick-me-up on summer days after work or exertion, or as an impulse buy when I'm buying groceries while hungry.
