Energy Rush Orange Mix

As my stalker already knows, I'm going on vacation tomorrow for a week, so while the chance of me seeing some new energy drinks is high, I won't be able to update as much as I'd like. Since my reviews for next week are likely to be scattered, I've decided to put off packing and do a review. Energy Rush Orange is the third and finale flavour in the Energy Rush line, and the one I'm least excited for. Because the line has been rather mediocre in the past, and that orange flavoured energy drinks aren't my favorite, I doubt that it will be any good.

FIRST IMPRESSION: The packet to Energy Rush Orange uses the same design that the previous Energy Rush flavours did, but with some mild changes. One of the changes is the colour, which is now orange, which makes sense given that that's the flavour. Perhaps the least noticeable change is the biggest one. While I still think the packet design is cluttered, it is less cluttered due to the removal of the "Splenda" logo. This makes the packet just that much better than the other packet in the line.

TASTE: I opened the packet, poured it in a sixteen.nine oz. bottle of water and shook. The flavour starts out a barely carbonated, light orange/tangerine blend, with the tangerine being the most noticeable of the two flavours, that then slowly fades away, leaving behind a faint sugar free aftertaste. The tangerine starts the flavour, then quickly fades, letting a orange taste develop, and then is over thrown by some more tangerine. The tangerine tastes fresh and sweet, where as the orange tastes bland and dull. Overall, while Energy Rush Orange is by far the best in the line, it's still not as good Helix Orange.

KICK: Each packet contains: caffeine, Taurine, 100% of Vit. B5, twenty % of Vit. B9, 160% of Vit. B12, and 200% of Vit. B6, and niacin. This blend of ingredients gave me a pretty good buzz. For around three+ hours I felt more mentally alert, and had some mild twitches. After the three+ hours I slowly began to fade back to my normal state of being.

FINAL WORD: After all is said and done, I feel that Energy Rush Orange is undoubtedly the best in the line, and the second best energy powder I've ever had. While the packet could of definitely been better, the good taste and kick made up for it. Now, I'm not saying that Energy Rush Orange is great or anything, but I am saying for an energy powder, it's a good overall product. All in all, if your looking for a good, cheap alternative to energy drinks that won't break your belt, then buy Energy Rush Orange...3.4/5
