Full Throttle Original Citrus Review

There is no reason for the Full Throttle brand to exist, a dinosaur of an energy drink that can today be found hiding in shame in the bottom corner of your local dumpy convenience store, if you are so lucky. The packaging, mind you, is appealing since its redesign, but with only two varieties available, the line is simply not competitive.

The flavor is sugar and citrus, it is as easy as that. Of course, it is more complicated, but your tongue is seized instantly by an invasion of sweetness that wipes clean any delicacy the potation was going for. If we dig deeper into the nebulous "citrus" moniker, you can pick out lemon, peach, guava and pineapple, all perfunctory excuses of more nuanced nectars. But there is depth! It is just a shame you need to spend so much energy to discover them. Acidity is also strong, a tartness that would make some sour candies blush. It is a good thing too, since the saccharinity is so needlessly potent that your palate relishes the relative relief. Overall, Full Throttle Original Citrus is no good, a canned caffeinated cocktail antique of the energy drink stone age.

160 milligrams of my namesake is all we get, a perfectly fine amount that results in a perfectly fine buzz, but that is it? Just two hours? It simply is not ambitious. To end, Full Throttle Original Citrus is drinkable, decent looking and kicks well enough. But that is not good enough.
