Advantages: Several different flavours

Disadvantages: Some arent so nice

Lucozade Energy is an energy drink which uses glucose as the main energy form. It comes in several flavours, including original, orange, apple, citrus and berry. It comes in either 1 litre or 380ml bottles (as far as I know, these are the only sizes) and can be bought in multi-packs.

The smaller bottle is approximately the same height as other bottles you'd typically find in a corner shop refrigerator, although it actually contains less than these other drinks do.

The larger bottle is about the same height as a 2 litre bottle of cola, although this only contains one litre.

The original bottles are orange with the lucozade logo on the side and nutritional information on the back. The orange ones are a lighter orange colour, the berry ones are purple and red, the apple ones are green and the citrus one is yellow.

Original -
The original lucozade has a unique taste which I ahve never experienced in anything else before. It has an almost spicy taste, although it's nothing too overpowering at all.

Berry -
The berry lucozade has a similar flavour, except it is minimized by the berry flavourings which sort of take over the flavour. I prefer this to the original one.

Citrus -
This one is nice if you like lemons and the general taste of citrus. Again, thoguh, I find you can stil taste the original flavour.

Apple -
I find that this one is much sweeter than the others so if you don't enjoy sweet things very much, this isnt the flavour for you. It's quite a pleasurable taste, even though it's a little unusual.

Orange -
I actually tend to find that you can't really taste the orange much in this one - you might as well just buy the original.
