Red Bull Summer Edition Coconut Twist

Summer is here and so is the latest Red Bull Summer Edition. This year the flavor is coconut twist.

Taste

I thought this would pour hazy white. but it actually has a hazy blue color, much like a blue curacao. It has the familiar Red Bull smell, but here it is turned down a notch and complimented by a light coconut scent.

The taste is surprisingly good with a light coconut flavor all throughout each sip. The familiar Red Bull taste doesn't come until the end and gives this Summer Edition more of a finishing twist than a main flavor.

Overall, this reminds me of a light tropical cocktail more than an energy drink. It is a refreshing new idea which actually tastes pretty good.

Energy

This 355 mL can has your typical 114 mg of caffeine and 38 grams of sugar so the effects are much like any other can of Red Bull.

Scores:
Cost - $3.99
Taste - 9/10
Energy - 7/10

Overall - 16/20...finally an interesting new flavor that actually tastes good
