Rockstar Juiced Mango Review

December 3, 2008 – 11:04 pm

Today, I will be reviewing Rockstar Juiced Mango flavor, the first of three juiced flavors I’ve tried offered by Rockstar. I’m loving how more and more flavors are becoming available, especially fruit flavors like mango, guava, passion fruit, etc. I’m a big fan of mango, so I was anxious to see how they would incorporate the mango flavor in their energy drink.

Rockstar Juiced Mango, was pretty awesome tasting if I should say so myself. I was pleased to see that they left the carbonation in this drink. I’ve tried a couple of juice energy drinks, and the few I’ve tried so far have been non carbonated. The mango flavor was not overwhelming, and there was no weird aftertaste. There’s not many mango flavored carbonated drinks on the market, so this was definitely a treat. Rockstar Juiced Mango will definitely be an energy drink I’d like to enjoy again in the near future.

The AMPED factor for Rockstar Juiced Mango is pretty much on par with the rest of the Rockstar energy drinks. My energy buzz lasted for a good couple of hours, and accompanying it was an increase in mental focus and clarity. I was at work when I drank it, so you know I was cranking away on projects left and right.

Okie dokes, here is my final verdict:

Price: $2.54

Taste: 8.5 out of 10

AMPED Factor: 8.5 out of 10

Rockstar Roasted Mocha Energy Drink Review

November 7, 2008 – 9:18 pm

The energy drink I will be reviewing today is Rockstar Roasted Mocha. I’ve noticed more and more brands introducing coffee flavored energy drinks, and I think it’s pretty cool since I’m a big fan of coffee. I believe Monster has around 8 different coffee flavors and Rockstar has 3. A 15 oz can of Rockstar Roasted Mocha packs 120 mg of caffeine, 17 g of sugar, B vitamins, taurine, gingko biloba, guarana, L-carnitine, ginseng, and milk thistle extract.

As far as taste goes, there’s no bitterness or tart taste whatsoever. I was also expecting it to have a lot of carbonation, but I was pleasantly surprised. It’s very smooth and easy to drink, but it tasted a tad bit like watered down chocolate milk. If i could suggest one thing to Rockstar, it would be to thicken it up a little bit.

If you needed a big energy boost early in the morning, needed to down something fast, and had a choice between this and a grande iced coffee from Starbucks, you’d probably want to choose this drink. It might be a little more expensive, but you’ll definitely get more bang, or should I say kick for your buck.

After drinking the Rockstar Roasted Mocha, I had a pretty nice energy buzz going. I was able to stay AMPED for a good 3 to 4 hours. If I didn’t have such a heavy lunch, my energy buzz would probably have lasted a little longer. Also, I’d like to add I experienced little if any jitters or crash with this one.

Ladies and gentleman, here’s my final verdict:

Price: $2.29

Taste: 7.5 out of 10

AMPED Factor: 8.5 out of 10

Interesting Fact: July 31, 2008 JetBlue Airways Corporation announced that customers jetting on flights serviced by its Airbus A320 fleet will soon have the option to upgrade their JetBlue Experience
with ROCKSTAR energy drinks.
