They taste the same and both taste shit. If I were to drink an energy drink it would be Relentless or something with that similar sugary tang to it. Can't stand the artificial bubblegum-like flavour of Red Bull or Monster.
>>
>>7151669
Rockstar has some badass flavors, I love the punch and the whipped orange.

The mango venom is hella dope too.
>>
>>7151678
Rockstar is alright yeah. That same base flavour that I like. Can't quite put my finger on what separates the flavours but there are definitely two distinct camps. I don't drink much of the stuff these days.
>>
Doesn't monster kind of taste like bubble gum or is that a different energy drink?
>>
All energy drinks taste like oil, smell like shit, feel like sludge, and leave an after taste of death.

I can not fathom why people like these things. Just drink a fucking espresso, or some coffee, or if you really need to stay awake, get caffeine pills.

Coffee is bitter. Energy drinks are more refreshing in that they are colder, thinner and intensely sweet. I don't have much of a sweet tooth anymore but I still crave a sugary drink like every few weeks. Water is fine in between. I wouldn't bother with coffee.
>>
>>7151723
When pulling an all-nighter at work we start with coffee, but then comes a point where we can't leave because we're afraid to interrupt our workflow so we hit the no doz and energy drinks.

It's convenient to have the pills/drinks in the office.

Red bull is superior to Monster. I've drank them before going in on a busy shifts and have found red bull personally kept me more awake.
>>
I like both Monster and Red Bull, from what I've had of both recently.

Never liked Rockstar.
>>
>>7151669
they don't even taste remotely similar you stupid shit. Monster is much sweeter and redbull is sour.

There's really not that much caffeine and stuff in energy drinks, you've fallen sucker to marketing. Try a strong coffee drink or even dabble in nootropics, both are better and safer than edgy teenager drinks

Anal ruin

But Red Bull is actually good
>>
The Monster shakes have been ruined from what I can tell. I noticed that the can was changed at the store yesterday, so I bought one hoping they'd taste the same. It was thinner, and when I got the bottom pieces of unblended cottage cheese-like soft chunks are all that filled my disappointed mouth. I always thoroughly shake them, too.
>>
>>7154339

> Horchata

What in the name of god... They sell it in Spain?

Monster > Redbull

That said, all energy drinks suck balls because they taste like shitty squashed carbonated fruit and have the worst aftertaste.

The worst part of it is, all our victories at work are now associated with energy drinks. Spending a flawless 16 hour workday putting up IT infrastructure where a 5k bonus is waiting at the end of it and everyone smells like carbonated bubble gum.

caffeine pills work to an extent I remember when I was driving for a few hours after barley getting any sleep I took some caffeine pills and it perked me right up for a bit. I wouldn't recommend doing that though I was kind of spacy and verging on seeing things from being up so long

Rockstar honestly has the best flavors, bar none. It's amazing that they're often cheaper than monster, too, but I guess that's what happens when your branding is associated with Call of Duty and various 12 year olds.
>>
Amp has best flavor.

Redbull is most comfy.

Monster Rehab is overall best.

Regular Monsters suck.

Jolt was GOAT.

Red Bull for all-nighters

Amp for gaming

I think Red Bull is delicious, but then again it might just be my conflict of interest.

The blueberry edition is the best by far in my opinion, it tastes much more like a soda than most energy drinks.
