I find it odd that I was able to find a ton of these sugar free Purple Editions but no regular sugary ones. Does Red Bull not make/sell a sugary version of this? The Internet (at the time of this review) doesn't seem to provide any useful info. Anyways, on with the review.
Taste
Inside this purple can you will find a cranberry red liquid which looks like a darker version of the Red Edition. The aroma is absolutely amazing with a ton of rich berry notes. The taste is equally impressive for a sugar free drink. The starts of very rich and doesn't go away at all. It seems to stick to the inside of the mouth and just gets better with each sip. But that also allows the sweetness to build up very quickly. Despite this being a sugar free drink, there is a ton of sweetness but fortunately the sweetener aftertaste is minimal and doesn't manifest itself for a while.
Overall, I absolutely love this flavor, but I wish the sweetness was dialed down a notch.
Energy
There are 114 mg of caffeine in this can and the effects are like any other sugar free Red Bull. If you haven't a sugar free Red Bull, the effects can also be compared to the sugary Red Bull minus the jitters you get from sugar.
Scores:
Cost - $3.19
Taste - 9.2/10
Energy - 7/10
Overall - 16.2/20...rich flavor but a bit too much of the sweeteners
