So Rockstar released a new energy drink (least new for me) this week at our local store. First I want to say the name is misleading. There is no sour taste to it, at all... I took the first taste and expected a Tear Jerker or similar sour candy taste, but that sensation never hit me.
The name of the flavor is called Bubbleberry, first what does bubblegum flavor taste like? The original gum style is just like a chewing on rubber, so they had to add in flavors to hide the original taste. They did it here as well, but added in a berry. I'm guessing the can being blue it's a Blueberry flavor which on the ingredients does not list anything Blueberry. Though there is a listing of Purple Sweet Potatoe, Black Carrot and Red Cabbage Juice extract or not.
WHAT! Why do they put those flavors in here? How dare they trick people who can't read and make them have some sort of vegetable in their drink. That's a conspiracy act, espionage or something evil. Though I can't say the taste is terrible, not something I could drink multiples of in a day.
For the energy part, yes it does work better then I thought it would. I sometimes drink energy drinks when I need it and none of the ones I have used have done the effect this one has. So not sure if it's something else in this drink or just because I'm not an avid Rockstar drinker.
