Q: What do Pink, Kid Rock, Rod Stewart, Fernando Vargas, Snoop Dogg, Red Hot Chili Peppers, James Hetfield, Mike Tyson, Ice Cube, Outkast, Missy Elliot, Jessica Alba, Eva Longoria, Jon Bon Jovi, and Sean Paul have in common?
A: They are all celebrity supporters of RockStar Energy Drinks.
Q: Does that mean I should drink them too?
A: God no. Not by any means, even if you are extremely desperate for an energy boost. They are paid to drink these products; you have to pay to drink them.
Price
Once upon a time RockStar Energy Drinks cost much less than comparable products that were half the size. I remember when you could get a RockStar Energy Drink for 99 cents, now the most common price I see on one of these is $2.49. The thought of spending almost $3 for a 16-ounce drink makes me ill. You may think that it is worth it to shell out this much money for a boost of energy, but I did not really feel all that energized after drinking this drink.
Flavor
I have often heard RockStar Energy Drinks compared to Red Bull, personally I find the later to be much more appealing. Since the first sip I ever took, I have found RockStar to be extremely unappetizing. It is somewhat similar to Red Bull, but much sweeter and with a horrible after-taste similar to cheap, generic bubble gum. If you are opting to go with the RockStar brand, go with the diet version. While the original flavor has an unbearable after-taste, the after-taste of the diet version is slightly less offensive.
Energy
I have been taking Real Estate classes all summer long. Two classes a week, 4 hours per class [plus an additional hour drive both ways]. I always need caffeine to make it through my classes and that long drive, but I did not find that it gave me an even noticeable energy boost.
Verdict
Stay away from this stuff. Granted that they did send me a free shirt [which might fit a Barbie… Find out below how to get your own], it does not make up for this disgusting, over-priced drink. I prefer the Diet RockStar Energy Drinks over the regular RockStar Energy Drinks the reduced calories and also for the better taste, but they far from live up to the name RockStar.
