I bought this guy from a Target in Michigan along with the Whipped Strawberry one, which by the way was amazing!
Taste
Do yourself a favor and don't pour this into a glass. Its pale orange/beige color is a bit off-putting and way off from the lush orange I was expecting. Unlike the Whipped Strawberry one, the aroma here is not as intense. Yes, there are some orange notes present in the aroma, but it is mostly dominated by your typical Rockstar aroma.
The taste starts off with a combination between Mountain Dew and regular Rockstar, but it is quickly followed by a moderately intense orange creamsicle note that is actually quite well done. The creamsicle part is sweet and gets only sweeter with each sip. The hit of Mountain Dew/Rockstar you get at the start is not strong enough to wash off the sweetness so it just builds up. The aftertaste is sweet with a noticeable orange creamsicle hint.
I liked the Whipped Strawberry way more.
Energy
There are 160 mg of caffeine. The kick comes in very fast. The initial sugar hit gave me a bit of a rush and a shaky leg. The caffeine kicks in around the 30 minute mark, it is powerful and I felt great for hours and did not experience a crash. But I always warn readers that if they were to have this later on in the day, a crash may occur since you might be running low on stored energy.
Scores:
Cost - $2...I think
Taste - 7/10
Energy - 8.2/10
Overall - 15.2/20...prefer the Whipped Strawberry one
sorry but you dont know what youre talking about this is way better than strawberry. i am an expert on this and your blog probably gets 100 hits a month so my opinion is a bit more valued.
ReplyDeleteI am coming around to liking this one. Just not a huge fan of orange cream-sickles.
DeleteYou're an idiot. Your blog gets more bla bla bla. Who gives a shit. Doesn't make you any less of a dumbass. Go play in traffic before your mommy calls you home for dinner!!!
DeleteSorry Anonymous, but I am an actual Professional Expert on this and our blog gets like 400,000,000 hits a month... so... just saying that your opinion is dick compared to our opinion and we like strawberry better. You might also want to consider Harikari, cuz you've been defeated and that's the honorable thing to do in this situation :\
ReplyDeleteWho cares if you get a billion hits a month. Does it really make you an expert. Are your taste buds better then everyone else in the world? Your an idiot and your overpaid if you make min wage
