Red Bull The Winter Edition Fuji Apple & Ginger Energy Drink Review

These "Winter Edition" Red Bulls have sprouted into part of my holiday traditions, and this year the flavor is purportedly "Fuji Apple & Ginger." Though I am a sucker for a good spicy soft drink or confection, the Fuji apple is not one of my favorite varieties (that is reserved for the magnificent Jazz apple), but history has been kind to this wacky sub-brand, so let us pray to Santa and hope this product ends up on the "Nice List."

It smells like apples and pours out like a sparkling cider, so palates across the world are not surprised when this tastes like apples. Like, impressively so, the extreme burst of the autumn favorite the moment the golden elixir smacks your taste buds so realistic that it is almost scary. The back of the can declares the involvement of both "natural and artificial" flavors, but my tongue would have bet all the roasted chestnuts in the world on this containing actual juice, a lot of it. But the ingredients fail to list out honest nectar, so my Santa's hat is off to the formulators this time around. Fuji is not the cultivar I immediately placed, Golden Delicious far more front-facing until falling to the Red Delicious' distinct finish and acidity level. But wait, you and your elf friend ask, what about the ginger? It is there, somewhere, lurking beneath the orchard product and struggling mightily against its fabulous fusion of sweet and tangy goodness. This means only some sips climax with a neutered nuance of the knobby rhizome, but that was probably a smart approach- not everyone consumes the spicy root with love the way The Caffeine King does. With sugar and glucose providing a biting sweetness that taste like these crave, this is Red Bull is the real deal.

I wish 114 milligrams of my namesake stimulant was the real deal, but unfortunately, the hour long buzz is not up to par. Yeah yeah, taurine and vitamins are here to party too, but what lousy guests they are; they did not even bring gifts for the Yankee Swap!
