Energy Drinks should be used sparingly as they decrease endothelial function and increase platelet aggregation. (4)  Coffee and tea are much healthier caffeine sources.  Energy drinks also burden your liver because many of them have added sugar or artificial sweeteners.  The best way to use caffeine is to avoid having it every day.  Over time our bodies develop tolerance to it making it less effective.  By consuming caffeine sporadically, tolerance can be avoided. (8)

This has turned into a collection of the energy products I have tried more than an actual guide but hopefully it can be useful to some of you.

I recently requested the concentrations of different ingredients claimed to boost energy that are found in these drinks below. No companies have responded as of yet (10 days later).  I would guess that the rumors that the ginseng, milk thistle, acai extract etc are too negligible to notice might be true.

Personal Ratings:


  1. SPIKE Energy Drink (The strongest energy drink I have had the chance to try)
    1. Taste: 6.7/10 This one has a ton of energy boosting chemicals as well as artificial sweeteners so I wasn't expecting it to taste amazing.
    2. Caffeine: 350mg/16oz You have to train your body for this one.
    3. Other Energy Ingredients:
      1. B12 (33,333%)
      2. Spike Hardcore Energy Formula 2,650mg
        1. N-Acetyl-L-Tyrosine
        2. Beta Alanine
        3. Caffeine anhdrous
  2. Korean Ginseng
    1. This supplement is different from the rest on here as it comes in a 10ml vial and contains no caffeine. Ginseng is prevalent in energy drinks and other supplements but usually doesn't come in high enough concentrations to actually provider benefits. These ginseng vials are the real deal. When used sparingly(not every day) they provider long lasting energy by helping your body regulate blood sugar.

    1. 7-11 Big Energy
      1. This one works surprisingly well. I wasn't able to find a caffeine amount but it did say on the label that it has added Ginseng, Guarana, and B12. I would imagine the caffeine is similar to your normal medium roast coffee.

      1. Good taste for being decaf

  41. Gridlock
    1. Original (Green Can)
      1. Taste: 8.6/10 Sweeter and better than monster (also 12g more sugar per can). This is the ALDI brand of 16oz energy drinks. It tastes similar to Monster Unleaded. By the end of it I didn't want to drink any more because of how sweet it is. This can be good or bad depending on your sugar tolerance. Sometime I find myself wanting more flavor afterwards but this is not the case for this drink.

    2. Caffeine: 250mg/packet(16oz) The caffeine hits you pretty quickly like an energy drink and the rest of the ingredients make you feel weird. I was way too hyper the first time I took this. I can see this being good for long drives or workouts but maybe not for studying.

  48. Loop Energy Drink
    1. Original
      1. Taste: 7.6/10 It tastes similar to a monster but I can taste a slightly bitter aftertaste. I would imagine this is because of the apparent relatively high concentrations of energy ingredients like caffeine, taurine, and ginseng.

    2. Free Fall (Lemon Lime)
      1. Taste: 7/10
      2. Caffeine: 25mg
      3. Same other ingredients as above
      4. This tastes slightly better than the one above.  I felt good after drinking this one as well as the Berry legit flavor.
    3. Tasty (Blood Orange)
      1. Taste: 6.9 Not bad for 3g of carbs but made my tongue and throat hurt.

      3. Same other ingredients as above
    5. Mojo Rising (Cold Brew Coffee)
      1. Taste: 5.2/10 Pretty gross, there were chunks in it even though it wasn't expired. I assume this is due to the fact that coconut fat hardens at a relatively warm temperature and this drink has coconut cream.
      2. Caffeine: ~150mg
    6. Epic Mojo
      1. Taste: 5.6/10 This is really strong(and low quality) black coffee. There's a reason this is at big lots.

This drink gave me lasting energy with no crash even though it has 250mg of caffeine.

        24. Organic (Green and Tan Can)
          1. Taste:6.1/10 I could taste the absence of the artificial flavors.
          2. Caffeine:160mg/15oz
          3. Other Energy: None, this flavor is a lot weaker than others.  No taurine, ginseng, or B vitamins were included.  Research claims that some of these ingredients don't do much for you but I always notice a difference.

        33. Rockstar Horchata Energy
          1. Taste: 5.3 I had a hard time with this one.  It seems to me like Rockstar may not have gotten the recipe quite right yet.  The bitterness of the energy additives bled through this drink quite a bit.  Caffeine has a bitter taste and at 225mg per can it is hard to cover up without a decent amount of sugar/artificial sweeteners.

            3. B2, B3, B5, B6, B12 (200%)
          4. I am really not impressed with this brand. On the front of the can they put "superfruit flavor" misleading people to think that there might be healthy fruits in here. It is nothing but artificial flavor. The flavor was bad and they even put an additional disclaimer "Athletes who consume this product immediately following strenuous activity incur the risk of experiencing a serious cardiovascular event." I'm not sure if this is just a new regulation or if something about the product causes additional risk.

      6. Hype Energy Drink (I almost didn't put the link because their website is filled with trash. They really "hype" up their sub-par product. I usually try not to beat down any one drink but this one is pretty terrible.)

          1. Taste: 3.2/10 Yiiiiikkkkeeesss, this thing is terrible. It's cinnamon flavored but not like arriba horchata or anything good. It's your basic energy drink but the artificial flavor they put in is cinnamon. Imagine a green monster except less sweet, spicy, and cinnamon flavored. Clearly this one is at big lots for a reason. I am happy I only spent 33 cents. Please consume this one at your own risk.

          4. It tastes like they don't quite have their formula right or just failed at which natural/artificial flavors they used. This one was also $2 for less energy boosting ingredients than a monster.

        1. Green Can (green Tea)

            5. Choline (11mg)
          4. This one tastes like a soda.  It makes sense because this one seems to be a lot less healthy than other energy drinks.  It contains high fructose corn syrup, brominated vegetable oil, red 40, caramel color, blue 1 and a few more preservatives.
        8. Cherry Blast

          4. If I drink these at any other time besides right before a workout I have a problem.  54g of sugar is a lot for your body to handle if you aren't burning it off right away.  I tend to crash really hard if I don't workout after drinking a monster(or other drinks with this much sugar).

      31. Bottle Starbucks Frappucino
        1. Caramel
          1. Taste: 5.1/10 - Far too sweet for me
          2. Caffeine ~90mg
        2. Smores
          1. Taste: 7.8/10
          2. Caffeine ~90mg
      32. Karma Water
        1. Taste: 7.3/10 - This is meant to be a healthier drink, only containing ~4g sugar.  Taste is affected of course.  Pineapple coconut tastes much better than the other flavors in my opinion.
        2. Caffeine: 50mg
        3. This is a healthy energy boosting drink.  The caffeine is low but the drinks contain many other beneficial ingredients:
          1. Raspberry Guava Jackfruit
          2. Acai Pomberry
          3. Orange Mango
          4. Pineapple Coconut
          5. Passionfruit Green Tea
      33. Guarana Coconut Water Energy
        1. Taste: Could not finish drinking
        2. Caffeine: 100mg/box
        3. Please don't buy this unless you like coconut water.  I do not so I could not drink this and I could not find a coworker that liked it either.
      34. Arriba Horchata
        1. Cinnamon
          1. Taste 9.6/10
          2. Caffeine: 76mg (11oz)
          3. This tastes like a bowl of cinnmon toast crunch. I would drink this as a dessert.  I crashed super hard after this for some reason. I hypothesize it is due to the high milk sugar content but I did also drink a sugarfree red thunder with it as well which may have been a bad combo.
            1. I drank it alone and it had the same effect.  Lactose always makes me sluggish.
