Note: Not all store carry it, or have it on clearance, so very YMMV.

I am not a fan of any energy drink really- find them all too sweet.
But I enjoy these well enough- Original, Lite, Yerba Mate, and Matcha in order of preference.
The fact that I recognize everything listed on the ingredients, and nothing sounds like mash ups from the Periodic Table you find in other energy drinks is a BIG plus for me.

Note that the Original uses cane syrup and grape juice concentrate for sweetness.
30g sugar and 120 cal.

Lite, Yerba and Matcha use a little cane sugar, Monk Fruit and Stevia. But the tartness of the lemon flavor covers up that after taste you usually get from Stevia imo.
4g sugar and 25 cal.

12 oz cans contain 140mg of caffeine.

My favorite energy drink is actually Sambazon Organic Acai Amazon Energy, but it is hard to find, and rarely ever on sale.

I've tried the Lite multiple times because they Sprouts keeps having digital coupons to get them free. They're so nasty, they're not even worth free. I thought maybe I'd eventually grow to tolerate it like I did Red Bull, but I still hate it as much as the first time I tried it. And in terms of actually giving you energy, they're really weak compared to conventional energy drinks like Rockstar or Bang. Of course, everyone's tastes are different, and the sugar version may taste better than lite, but just a word of warning.

Some info to put these drinks into perspective. I've never had this drink but just giving info based on details off the can. The original/reg version has 115 calories. A can of reg coke has 140 calories. This energy drink has 140mg of caffeine. A cup of coffee has about 90mg. The ones with fewer calories is sweetened by "natural" sweeteners. It uses both stevia and monk fruit sweeteners which are both extracted from plants. IMHO they both taste a bit off from real sugar but I still like them as healthier alternatives to the really fake sweetners. I'd give this a try if it were convenient.

EDIT: I just read everyone else's comments on how this drink tastes. Apparently everyone thinks it's terrible so buyer beware. Don't want to come off like I'm pushing these for tasting good.

We bought some when they were $10, they taste terrible.
Almost like medicine flavor.

Saw them again, but for $5 and passed.

these are tasty. too bad they included the full sugar version in the case. totally different market for that. nobody should be drinking full sugar drinks in current year.
