So, today I was in the shop looking for something to drink, and I saw a ton of energy drinks I’d never tried, so I’ve decided to try any energy drinks I find and put a little review up here, for something to do

So for the first review, this can of Red Devil:

Although I’d never heard of this stuff before, it’s apparently the #2 energy drink in Europe. It’s in a sturdy steel can, 440ml size, which is unusual as most energy drinks sold here are in 500ml tallboy cans or smaller 250ml cans.

The price is pretty good too; at 69p for 440ml, it’s at the cheaper end of the range, and with a caffeine concentration of 32mg/100ml, it clocks in at 2.04mg of caffeine for every penny.

The taste is fairly unique, it’s a sickly sweet mixture you might get by mixing Tizer and IRN-BRU. You can feel the sugar as the red liquid leaves the can. Luckily it’s without major aftertaste, although you are pretty much guaranteed a sugar comedown later.

All in all a fairly average energy drink but with a good price point if you want something cheap to keep you going.

Taste: 6/10
Value: 8/10
Experience: 6/10
Overall: 7/10
