Everyone will have heard of the drink Red Bull and their extraordinary claims that it 'Gives you wings', well, Asda have their own version and instead of it costing a couple of pound per can it costs just 29pence! Asda's 'Emerge Energy Drink' is a very similar tasting drink to its more expensive rivals' drinks and is a well presented alternative. Packaged in a red and silver can it contains a carbonated mixed fruit flavour drink. Taurine and caffeine are present, and the can states 'Emerge is NOT suitable for persons sensitive to caffeine.' I am impressed with Asda's offering, and at this price it is a viable alternative to Red Bull and other leading brands ...  Read the complete review

Emerge is an alternative to more expensive branded energy drinks. At around 25p it is a lot cheaper than most energy drinks out at the moment. Unlike other alternatives it doesn't claim to give you wings or anything stupid like that, it claims to be an energy drink and quite successfully fulfills that claim. It's a cheaper brand you haven't heard of, they don't advertise on TV and you can't buy them in pubs and bars to drink with your vodka so it's probably going to taste horrible right? Wrong! I prefer the taste to most of the better known brand energy drinks myself. The design of the product is quite pretty looking for a budget brand. The logo is ...  Read the complete review

This is my opinion of the stimulation energy drink Emerge: I came across this product in my local Netto and as I generally like these sort of energy drinks thought there would be nothing to lose in giving it a try. It is a carbonated drink and is branded as being mixed fruit flavour which it certainly is. It seems to be most similar to Red Bull which I assume is the leading brand nationally. Depending on where you shop this is usually at least a quarter of the price of Red Bull. It has the same familiar taste and gives a nice little boost for when you need perking up. The stimulation comes from high levels of caffeine and taurine. It is available in a 250ml ...  Read the complete review

I am not nor have I ever been very big into energy drinks but as I get older in years and heavier in weight I seem to rely on them more and more to get me through my hour of five aside football every week. I loathe paying the price for things like red bull and the other leading brands so I often resort to Asda`s own and things like that but the new kid on the block for me is one called Emerge. Emerge is a typical energy drink both in appearance as well as taste, it comes in a long thin can like most other energy drinks and if it were served ice cold in a glass to me I would swear blind it was red bull as there is little or no difference when cold, but if it is ...  Read the complete review

The product I am reviewing is called "Emerge". What is Emerge? Emerge is an energy drink which is sold in Lidl, Netto, Asda and Poundland. Emerge is a fairly cheap product, depending on where you purchase it. In Asda its around 24p each where as other stores it can cost as much as £1.50. Emerge is usually seen as a cheap alternative to red bull which puts people off buying it for their children, i used to tell my mother never to buy me cheap products in case the other children were to notice at school but now that ive grown up I've realised it really doesn't matter about the label on the product but the quality of the product this is ...  Read the complete review
