What about "anti-energy" drinks?

Tried them a handful of times, they never gave me energy really.

Some people get WIRED off of them, I wouldnt even get a slight burst of energy

Energy drinks do nothing for me. I can drink them then go to bed.

I do. I've got an allergy to coffee (much to my chagrin, because I love it), so a sugar-free Rockstar is my coffee replacement in the morning.

These.

I'll drink a Red Bull, but only because I like the taste of it. They literally do nothing for me, not even the 5 hour energy crap.

Although none of the energy drinks taste THAT great, red bull is the worst. The Nitrous Monster drinks aren't bad. A little more expensive, though.

lol I'm the complete opposite. Red Bull is really the only one I can tolerate, as far as taste goes.

For the taste? Now Red Bull is the only one I drink, because for me, it works. But it tastes nasty.

I've had a Red Bull a couple of times. They were okay. I don't mess with any of those drinks.

I don't really get a "buzz" from any of them, but my favorite is Full Throttle, and an occasional green Monster. I drink more coffee than anything though.

I guzzle a Low-Carb Monster on the drive to work every morning - you can get a case of it at Sam's or Costco for about $30.

Ran out one day, and the Speedway around the corner had only the the Green (regular) Monster in stock. I won't do that again - I had what must have been a sugar buzz for two hours.

That used to be my time for a lip cookie, but I quit that four years ago.

Red Bull tastes like Jaeger geeee I wonder why at least for me. I still drink them plain every now and then.

Jaeger tastes like stale cough syrup.

I actually don't mind the sugar-free Red Bull taste, but the two taste nothing alike.

I actually like the taste of most Monsters. I don't drink them for energy.
