Red Bull

For my first review I decided to do something that would set the standards. Something that everyone knows exactly what you are talking about when you mention it’s name. Red Bull.

Red Bull is known world wide and has even found it’s self in feature length movies like Yes Man (Jim Carrey drinks a bit much of the bull during a night of raving).

All of the brand publicity aside, the drink is actually a solid energy drink. Many people tell me they don’t like energy drinks because of that harsh acidic taste that this genre of drink has been known for. Red Bull is no exception. This drink does spot the usual energy taste, but it is presented in such a way that it is enjoyable. If need be, it can be chugged.

Red Bull sports a light, golden color and is moderately carbonated.The taste is refreshing and provides a significant boost to energy. Unfortunately Red Bull is a culprit in the infamous caffeine crash that some people experience. I have only noticed this effect when I’m exhausted or when I have had more than the recommended daily dose. Maybe I should listen to what the back of the can has to say.

Caffeine: 80mg per 250ml
Taste: 4 out of 5
Buzz: 4 out of 5
Verdict: Buy

p.s. Happy New Year.
