Something smells wrong here, a fruit punch should be potently scented, but this reeks of spoiled produce on the cusp of fermenting. If you can somehow get past the odor, the liquid that barrels out is astringent to the point of disgust: this is an awful tasting energy drink. The can claims this "drinks like a juice," but my tastebuds know a lie when it sees one- this drinks like medicine. There is a brief moment, a single, solitary moment when your tongue can in-fact taste something that resembles the purported punch, cherry, guava and lime mostly, a decent enough blend that is as basic as they come. Such simplistic sapors would ordinarily be a point of contention for some, but just wait until you taste what is next. Any goodwill achieved is dumped down the drain the moment this crimson cocktail connects with your lips. It grabs your entire mouth, wringing it of moisture and comfort like sipping millions of microscopic knives. The ingredients list is a big one, somehow involving both protein and fiber, but my guess as for the unbearable bitterness is just how many supplements are crammed inside; even the 260 milligrams of caffeine, something my palate repeatedly pines for, is looked upon with the raised eyebrow of suspicion and full-body rejection. This will no-doubt be the scariest thing you drink this Halloween season.
The energy mix is a good one at least, a three and a half hour long buzz I got still not nearly enough to make up for how bad this tastes. In addition to my namesake chemical, we also have the familiar sights of C, E and B vitamins, as well as funky ones like copper and zinc. I like bizarre blends like this, but only when they do not interrupt the process of ingestion; Cypher Ponche De Fruitas would work best as an IV drip.
