Sugar Free Red Bull

Red Bull, a caffeine and taurine-based 'energy drink', was first invented by an Austrian, Dietrich Mateschitz. The original inspiration had come from a drink he had encountered during his travels in the Far East. Red Bull was launched in Austria in the late 1980's and spread throughout the world fairly quickly thereafter. I started drinking it in the nineties, along with another, less readily available product that came in a garish green can. I drank Red Bull as though it were going out of fashion, and looking back, it probably was. I drank it thoughtlessly, carelessly, incessantly, whether in a glass with ice, or gulped directly from the can, mixed with ...  Read the complete review

Red Bull markets itself as "the world's number one energy drink". It is not just your common or garden soft drink to be knocked back when you are feeling thirsty, oh no. Red Bull is a tonic or "utility drink" that is intended to be drunk to relieve mental and/or physical exertion, or as they put it "to give you wiiiiings!". It has been around since 1987 when it was first released on the unsuspecting public in its home country of Austria (this rather surprised me, for some reason I had always thought Red Bull was an American thing). Red Bull obviously went down very well, as it began to be exported from 1992 onwards. This latest ...  Read the complete review

Currently on a mission to try every energy drink known to man I stumbled upon sugar free Red Bull, as I'm in an almost never ending state of exhaustion energy drinks and chocolates bars have been coming to my saviour recently. As I've been through Lucozade, Powerade, Gatorade, Monster, Relentless, Rockstar and the original Red Bull I've had varying amounts of effects, with Lucozade alert actually being the best so far in waking me up, the original Red Bull coming a close second and Relentless tracking a long way behind as it had pretty much no effect. Coming in a silver and light blue can (250ml) the can is very similar to the original Red Bull just a lighter ...  Read the complete review

There are many opinions as the weather any of the typical energy drinks work. Some people swear by them to help keep themselves focused and others think they are a waste of money. Over the past year or so I have tried many of energy drinks from the most expensive to the cheapest supermarkets own makes. To be completely honest the best energy drink I have came across has to be a one called relentless. Its works well and tastes good but does nothing for your tummy if you are on a diet. So off I go in search of an energy drink that is sugar free. When out shopping I came across the sugar free red bull. The description: The sugar free version of the red ...  Read the complete review

I am a fan of Sugar Free Red Bull (as I am the normal version). I love the drink it fairly regularly (budget permitting of course!). The can is pretty distinctive as it is light blue, silver & red and has the Red Bull logo on the front. The taste is quite fruity really and is pretty similar to the original Red Bull but you can tell that it has been tampered with slightly and this is likely due to the subtraction of the sugar which has been replaced by other sweeteners. I do feel that this drink helps to give me a lift but I would advise not drinking more than 1 or 2 a due to the adverse affects of excess caffeine and/or ...  Read the complete review
