...lost Energy Drink Re-Review

When I first reviewed ...lost Energy, the can I had was not only twenty four oz., but also utilized the lines old can design. And when the two are compared, I have to say that I prefer the newer's whole graffiti stylistic mien over the originals crazy but ultimately cluttered appearance. The red contrasts the white and black colours, and the three are balanced well in the sense that none are overwhelming. Unlike most energy drinks that feature a suggested retail price, ...lost is supposed to cost $1.99, which is roughly twice as much as the typical(which is usually $.99) I understand that energy drinks can run up well past two dollars, but it still seems a bit silly to me.

Though I do not have an older can of ...lost to compare the tastes, from what I remember they're about the same. The flavour initially is of a sour pineapple who's sharp complexion is complemented and restrained slightly by a gummy chemical taste who's halfway crossed with a tart apple. Both the fruits are cajoled overly, and while the two occupy two opposite sectors of the flavour, they taste parallel to one another. The chemical taste is abstemious thanks to those adjacent to it. When the main flavour body progresses, and it takes its time, a cross of blueberry and blue raspberry tumors a towering atmosphere to the previous taste. Neither of the braid are authentic to their nature found fruits, and both are super sweet and cloyingly gummy. The carbonation goes unnoticed because its job doesn't distract the drinker when the flavour is searching for identity. Overall, ...lost's flavour is a Red Bull clone that's as uninspired as any before it.

My energy level was raised quickly and it only grew stronger slightly for an hour or so. It was then stuck in limbo for two and a half or so more hours, and while I didn't crash, I was aware that I wasn't as buzzed. Each can contains: several B vitamins, caffeine, taurine, ginseng, guarana, and inositol. Overall, ...lost Energy is similar to the recent Monster Absolutely Zero in the sense that both had a cool can, and both went down hill soon after.
