What is Your Favorite Energy Drink?

I am a huge energy drink buff, and drink at least 1 every day. Yes, the sugar is bad for you, but the good ones to contain a lot of vitamins etc. I always eat a Clif Bar as well....

Anyway.. there are thousands of energy drinks out there, but I know many drink the main brands out there. What is your favorite?

I pulled my top ten from my blog on my myspace /docer

Top 10 Energy Drinks:

(1) Rockstar - http://www.rockstar69.com
I like these the best because they contain way more vitamins than any other it seems. Plus they have a variety of flavors. I prefer the juiced variety. I still have yet to try their new pomegranate flavor which i'm sure is one of the best ones yet from them. My favorite is the Orange, Mango, and Passion Fruit juiced blend. Plus I am able to by them by the case for cheap. 24 16oz. cans for $28.99 + Dep. There are others that I like the flavor of better though. But they dont have the content of a Rockstar.

(2) Jones Soda Varieties (Jones Energy, and Big Ol' Can Of Whoop Ass)
http://www.jonessoda.com/files/products-energy.php
I first had the Whoop Ass and loved it. It even turns my pee green. I thought the flavor was great for a non-flavored or juiced style energy drink. Its great ice cold, and has all the goodies in it. I later had the regular Jones Energy and loved it as well. It is more difficult to find though.

(3) Xcelerator - http://deadredenergy.com/
I always kind of looked over this little can because it was always the 8oz. size and seemed to be a little expensive. But after having one I was quite pleased with it. After trying to get my girlfriend to try many, she seemed to only like this one. It is red, has a nice bite, and contains all the goodies including vitamin C. It stands out from many of the others because of its unique flavor.

(4) RedBull - http://www.redbullusa.com/
As far as I know, this is one of the first energy drinks on the market. It is great ice-cold, and to me has a good flavor. One major downside is how expensive it is. For some reason they think they top the market and can charge you that much when it really only has a couple beneficial vitamins added. Not very big on nutriens, but big on taste.

(5) SoBe Essentials Line - http://www.sobebev.com/product_info/essential.shtml
I was never too big on the SoBe line of energy drinks until they came out with these 2 flavors. I especially like the berry-pomegranate flavor. Very smooth and refreshing and also has a good deal of vatamins in it. The orange aint bad either.

(6) NOS - http://drinknos.brinkster.net/
I thought the flavor of this was great, and it has a nice stash of goodies in it. Plus later I found the website to be pretty cool too. I had another drink that was an exact match if not the same drink, but I can't think of what it was. It is also a passion fruit flavor blend.

(7) SoBe Adrenaline Rush - http://www.sobebev.com/product_info/adrenaline_line.shtml
This is a good all around energy drink, and I wont complain about the juices that SoBe makes other than cost. But this has all the goodies and has a rather unique taste that aint too bad. You wont see SoBe's No Fear line on my list though as I think it tastes rather weird.

( Cool

180 Deg. - http://180.com/
I have only had the orange flavor of this but I liked it rather well. Plus it had a nice little handful of vitamins as well. I would really like to try the other flavors but I haven't seen them around anywhere. I believe this drink is made by the same makers as budweiser (AB). Not bad for a big company.

(9) Von Dutch - http://www.vondutch.com/energy_drink.html
I think they are a clothing company? Either way, I like this drink ice-cold because it has a rather good taste like a Red Bull, but is bigger, cheaper, and is loaded with more vitamins.

(10) Lost Enterprises - http://www.lostenterprises.com/prod/index.php
I only put this before Monster because they basically have taken Monsters drink, and made it lookk better than it tastes. For some reason this is a very popular drink.... or is it just their marketing that makes it look that way? Anyway, the only one I can really down is the Lost Five-O Juiced flavor (Same as the Monster Juice). It has a great load of vitamins, but the taste is less than desirable. Again, same drink as Monster, different can.

Also Rockstar Just added the coffee flavors like Moster did. Havent tried it yet although the Monster one is pretty good. Plus Monster has a new M-80 flavor which is now a new favorite of mine.

I won the grand prize sweepstakes for the Lost Enterprises pick-a-pro sweepstakes too. I won 24 24-pack cases of Lost, and a trip for two to Orange County California to skate with a pro and get all kinds of free Etnies stuff and a skate board. Very Happy

I voted for Sobe...don't find it as "tart/tangy" tasting as Redbull, though i still like Redbull. Though we don't have the berry-pomegranate flavor yet...probably take 5 years to get it here. Rolling Eyes

And I do prefer XS Energy Drink.

But I do like my Aquafina Plus bottled water, tap water tastes horrible....

I tried Red Bull and BlackBooster a long time ago, but I did not like the sweet taste, so I just drink black coffee! Razz

I like most of the Rip it brands. I try not to drink to many if I can because of all the sugar and calories. If I want to have one without alot of calories I'll get a sugar free Red Bull

Bawls

Don't really understand why they named it so, but it tastes good.

Pepsi Blue is also one of the better tasting gaming fuels.
