It has been three years since we last saw them, but UpTime returns to the world renowned Caffeine King, sporting a largely identical can. Its height and heft not only feels wonderful in your hand but also stands out amongst the other potent potables in store chill chests, although the design does have a bit too much text towards the nethermost portion. However, my local gas station did not have UpTime with the other energy drinks, and the peculiar metallic construction had me gloss over it once or twice before noticing that, yes, this is an energy drink.
Your first sip is a fun one, with cane sugar, the only sweetener on patrol today, giving imbibes a weight that diet honeys can only dream of delivering. The mouthfeel is airy and foamy, as if featuring nitrous carbonation, with the thousands of little tiny bubbles gently pushing away from the surface of your tongue. Acidity is another highmark, a sourness just strong enough to remind your tastebuds that this is a lemonade, not demand it. The actual flavor is light, a barely present combination of peach and lemon, a tempered twosome where both pieces of produce give the other time to passively dominate the experience. The fuzzy nectarine engulfs the palate with its pointed sweetness, before collapsing to the tart citrus, eliminating the sugary bite so that things end with an acerbic finish. It is not a perfect potation, sometimes sipping too nonchalantly for its own good, but there are few faults to taste.
Energy-wise, UpTime disappoints. 142 milligrams of caffeine, ginseng, vitamin C, and some others make up the ingredient cocktail, but it is not enough in today's market of super-stiff supplement stews.
