Hello all! Today I’ll be reviewing a drink I recently tried called Monster Mixxd Energy Drink. I bought this particular drink at a local liquor store down the street from my work. Even though I’m not the biggest fan of Monster Energy Drinks, I have made it a mission to try every energy drink they have to offer. I mean who knows, I may stumble across a flavor I actually really like.
Monster Mixxd Energy Drink comes in a 16 oz can. The design of the can is pretty much similar to the Monster Khaos and the M-80 can design except is has a cool purple color for the Monster logo. Taking a look at some of the verbiage on the can, it says that they took a mixture of “back-up” flavors and tossed’em together. When I first read that I knew I was going to be in for a surprise.
At first sip, I really had no idea what to make of the Monster Mixxd Energy Drink. I couldn’t quite figure out what flavor this drink was. By looking at the color of the can, my first impression was that it would taste more like grape soda. This was not the case. I found myself taking sip after sip trying to figure what it tasted like. To be honest with you I didn’t like the drink at first, but the more I drank it the more I seemed to grow accustomed to the taste. As weird as it may sound I actually ended up liking it somewhat. I still can’t really put my finger on it, but I guess the best way to describe the flavor is that it tastes like a less carbonated Dr. Pepper with some juice mixed in. I’m a big fan of Dr. Pepper, so maybe that’s why I ended up somewhat liking the drink.
As far as getting me AMPED, Monster energy drinks never fail me. After drinking Monster Mixxd Energy Drink, I had plenty of energy to get through the rest of the work day. I always love that initial rush energy drinks provide. I had a lot of reports to run that day, and Monster Mixxd Energy Drink definitely helped me get through them with ease. I was a lean mean reporting machine!
Alright, don’t get your panties in a bunch, here’s the final verdict:
Price: $2.99
Taste: 7.5 out of 10
AMPED Factor: 8.5 out of 10
