FMF Citrus Lemonade Energy Drink Review

I enjoy the preference of yellow on the can to FMF Citrus Lemonade, opposed to the heavy likening of red of the previous variety, and though the difference doesn't result in me falling in love with the can, it certainly does standout more. And consistent with the former flavour, there isn't any enthusiasm about it being an energy drink, and it feels almost content with being rather boring.

The ice cold drink is flatly carbonated and wholly apathetic to the tongue. The redundant billing as "Citrus Lemonade" is true, with large declarations of orange and lemon, and humble mentions of guava, grapefruit, and mango. The latter three do not taste as exotic as they should, however all ignore the depth of the fruits they're based off of, but it's particularly unfortunate that the lemon isn't soured properly, considering it makes up a majority of the overall flavour. The orange hints towards resembling tangerine at times, though it never authentically resembles either. But most deplorable of all is the same subsequent bitterness found in the line's earlier variation. The sweetness isn't able to distract from this, nor is it really able to sugar the fruits properly, and although it really isn't a caustic or profound unpleasantness, it's the final nail in the flavour's coffin.

Each can contains: 240 milligrams of caffeine, green tea, ginseng, and vitamins B and C. The cocktail created a solid four hour buzz, and is easily the best aspect of the product. Overall, FMF Citrus Lemonade is a thorough improvement that still ends up being terrible.

FMF Power Fruit Punch Energy Drink Review

FMF Power Fruit Punch's can doesn't do it for me, though the resealable cap is a wonderful inclusion. The rather boring design is the reason behind my disliking, as while there's quite a lot going on, there isn't anything interesting. Nothing conveys a sense of excitement or energy, and speaking of which, the can doesn't explicitly say that it is an energy drink, though there is a small mentioning in the left of the picture. What is bluntly spoken is the word "power," which isn't the same as the aforementioned, though this confusion does distracts from its humdrum appearance.

The flavour is, well, it's a bland muddling of indistinct fruits, with a mild but ever still unpleasant bitterness following. There's enough evidence of lime and guava, however neither display careful construction, and neither have even an ounce of authenticity to them. Both green apple and cherry can also be picked out of the constant insipidness, albeit barely, and they too are disrespectful interpretations. Zero of these four ever show signs of tanginess, and though there is fifty grams of sugar, none of them taste properly saccharine. It's a slightly grainy and relatively syrupy sweetness, but these textural properties provide relief from the uniform vapidness. Following is the aforesaid bitterness, and it's a sort of organic brackishness that is probably caused, at least partially, by the green tea and yerba mate used for supplement purposes. Overall, FMF Power Fruit Punch is surprisingly and unfortunately poor tasting.

After all that negativity, the kick is actually quite good, with it lasting a jittery four plus hours. Each can contains: ginseng, caffeine(240mg), various B vitamins, and vitamin C. In the end, FMF Power Fruit Punch's potency isn't impressive enough to forgive all that it did crudely.
