Outlaw Passion Energy Drink Review

These Outlaw drinks keep appearing on store shelves, a random can shoved haphazardly next to the more popular brands across many gas stations near me. Passion is the next variety, and its deep purple is a nice change of pace from the company's ungainly bright cans, though the design remains leadened and generic.

There is no juice here, but the flavor is so full-on passionfruit you would swear the can read "NOS." Every sip is potent, an explosion of grainy sweetness and acrid acidity, but it works. It is a famous energy drink flavor, one that is almost tough to drink due to its preposterous effervescence, a coarse, heavy carbonation that drinks like every bubble is wearing a scratchy wool sweater. When it boils down to actual taste things are quite forgettable, it is your typical passionfruit flavored caffeinated potable that is every bit as sugary and tart as the potations it mimics. I wish there was something unique here, but at least they parodied something other than Red Bull.

This is where things get good- we get 250 milligrams of caffeine, along with taurine, B vitamins, ginseng, maca root, and guarana. The buzz lasts a good three hours, perhaps a few minutes over that, and all that sugar results in a bit of a crash, just like drinks did all those years ago. Overall, Outlaw Passion is an uninspired clone that remains fairly fun to drink.
