Used to be Monster for a long time.

Then I got onto Rockstar as it had a stronger effect. Drank those for so long and now Monster isn't as good as I remembered it to be. Rockstar's taste I enjoy, but I'm getting tired of it lately.

I've been drinking Red Bulls as of recently. Sucks, as it's so expensive, can get a very small can for the price of a regular sized can of Rockstar/Monster.

I also really like NOS.

The only one I can tolerate is Powerade. It's not so much an energy drink but an electrolyte replacement drink.

All flavors of Monster except the sugar free type. I need to have everything and hate it when that's the only Monster at the coffee shop in my college. There isn't any other place to buy it but there.

Water, tea, fruit juice, V-8 (the regular vegetable kind)...I can't drink regular energy drinks, they taste nasty.

Fun fact: taurine is synthesized ox bile =D

Actually that was proven false by some researchers.

Energy drinks taste too funny to me (yes I based my opinion off one sip of Red Bull )

My heartbeat is 45 when resting but when I had a redbull it shot up to 145 - and I was just sitting in a chair.

I'll never touch the stuff again.

Rockstar although the trouble is that it doesn't come in big bottles only comes in cans. I don't eat much sugar so when i drink one of these in about 1 minute I'm bouncing off the walls

Twice besides my post has a "sweet" or "fruity" taste has been mentioned. Try Rockstar, it's bitter but an enjoyable bitter, and is the only one that really stands out.

What was? Taurine being synthesized? Or energy drinks having a nasty taste?

I know it's only Wikipedia, but it says "taurine in the pharmaceutical or food industry is chemically synthesized".

The Melatonin you get in a pill form for easier sleep is synthesized from similar-to-human Melatonin taken from the cow's brain. I wouldn't be surprised. At least we're drinking fake stuff and not really ox bile, otherwise we'd be on a Fear Factor where you don't get a $50,000 prize.
