Sainsburys 'Diet' Blue Bolt Energy Drink

I drink quite a lot of tea and coffee as a bit of a pick me up during the day. However sometimes I find that I can get a bit fed up consuming these after a while and as a result have recently been trying some of the energy drinks loaded with caffeine that are currently available on the market. I vaguely remember at one stage the only available product in this category for a long time was red bull and I used to remember how shocked I was to discover the huge variation in price from store to store when purchasing this particular item which could set you back as much as £1.49 a can depending on where it was purchased. Recently there seems to have been a kind of energy ...  Read the complete review

Now and then I like the odd energy drink, not to actually give me energy but just because I fancy one as a refreshing drink. I hate paying ridiculous prices though for the likes of Red Bull so I try and buy cheaper versions but ones which taste very similar - although I never can find a similar drink. Blue Bolt is one I bought before from Sainsburys, as it is Sainsburys very own energy drink. I often before going out drink Vodka and Redbull too, to try make my nights out cheaper but if buying actual Redbull it tends to make my night quite expensive so that's the main reason I bought Sainsburys Blue Bolt. You can either buy it in the original or diet version, I've bought ...  Read the complete review

Anyone who regularly reads my reviews will by now know I am a lover of energy drinks. Having had an eating disorder I relied on them really as I felt they helped up my calorie intake and boost my very poor energy levels. Now however I've booted the eating disorder up the bum and I eat and drink normally (hence this being a 'diet' product) and I go the gym most days and work me bum off to eat pretty much whatever I want to sort of thing lol. I tend to drink alot of water through my work outs or isotonic drinks but prior to a work out I usually have an energy drink of some variety on route and one when I come out. I think it's just a mind thing really ...  Read the complete review

I tried this for the first time just right now, and I have to say I am not that impressed by it. I tend to drink Energy Drinks most days, especially work days. Today i'm not working, but since I am just up - late night last night, and needing a drink of Juice, this Can is much colder feeling than my unopened bottle of Juice. Although the picture has a Bottle on display, I am reviewing the Can, and i've not seen the bottle in the shop. The brands I normally buy is Asda's, Tesco, or Emerge which is also sold in Asda. I do like the Original Red Bull, but that is so expensive compared to the Supermarket brand ones. This 250ml can cost me 37p from Sainsbury's, and ...  Read the complete review

I have recently gotten back into being a regular drinker of energy drinks, mainly due to working long hours that are quite demanding. I started off with Red bull, however I seemed to consume more than was economical so I looked for cheaper altenatives. Upon stumbling across this bottle on the shelves at Sainsbury's, I read the description which seemed pretty similar to that of Red Bull. Blue bolt contains Caffeine and Taurine and is stated to stimulate the mind and body. The bottle itself is grey with a blue bolt on the front, or there is a can option available. So I went ahead and bought two bottles to try (what a mistake) ...  Read the complete review
