Advantages: Tastes good and gives bags of energy

Disadvantages: Unhealthy

Well its not healthy but if you need a sugar rush and you want it in a tasty way then look no further. Lucozade has a very manufactured taste (in the same way that coke does, only the tastes are completely different) which is very nice. If it weren't unhealthy then I would drink it out of choice just because it tastes so good.

This however leads onto the unhealthiness, and this is not good. Most of the energy that you get from this drink is from sugar rather than caffeine, which basically means that it is considerably worse than drinking coke because it contains so much sugar.

On the other hand, if sugar is what you need, for example after heavy exercise (it is fizzy so probably not a great idea before), then this drink will suit this purpose with aplomb. Provided you restrict this drink for when you only need a pretty serious sugar rush, then it is a fantastic product.

Summary: Good for the right purpose
