Foosh Energy Mints

One of the newest ways to get caffeinated are through mints. Several companies, such as VoJo, Revive, Warp, and Foosh have found minimal to great success in the market. I never was a big fan of non-drink energy products, as I love drinks, but when Megan of Vroom Foods, Inc. emailed me, wondering if I'd like some free samples of there product Foosh Energy Mints, I just couldn't say no. Now, I've reviewed Ice Breakers Energy Mints before, but no other energy mints, so this will be an interesting experience...

FIRST IMPRESSION: I like the... box of Foosh Energy Mints. Its got minimal text, and a cool wavy background that reminds me of peppermint. Also like there slogan, "SERIOUSLY CAFFEINATED," it shows its potency. One thing that's a crime if its overlooked is that each tablet contains 100mg of caffeine! That's the equivalent of a cup of coffee or an eight oz. rip it. Overall, I'm really excited to try Foosh Energy Mints, as its not every day that I can get 100mg of caffeine in such a small package...4/5

TASTE: As I'm so used of getting around 200mg of caffeine in one sitting, I decided to take two mints at a time. The taste is best described as a strong dinner mint-like peppermint flavour. Its rather overbearing if two are taking at once, so I recommend one at a time. The texture is very similar to most of the mints out there, though not as chalky, which is good or bad depending on who you are. There is, sadly, a weird after-taste that I believe to be caused by the bitterness of caffeine. While the after-taste doesn't completely ruin the experience, it does, however, knock a few points off the final score...3.4/5

KICK: Every mint contains: Sorbitol, Caffeine, Natural Peppermint Extract, Taurine, Ginseng, Niacinamide, Salt, and Sucrolose. This blend of ingredients gave me a above average buzz. It may of been because of its concentration of ingredients. I felt jittery and rather awake for around four or so hours, then I just felt like sleeping. Remember, I took TWO mints, not one. Taking one mint might provide a weaker kick...4/5

FINAL WARD: Overall, I feel that Foosh Energy Mints is one of the better non-drink energy products on the market today. Its packaged in an attractive... box, has a true mint flavour, and provides a worth while buzz. The only thing holding this product back is the after-taste, which like I said, doesn't destroy the taste, but isn't too appetizing. After my positive experience with Foosh Energy Mints, I'm also considering getting there other energy product, energy chews, though, that's I'm able to find some money, or get Vroom to use my photo on there site...3.9/5
