I gave up caffeine. It always left me dazed and dehydrated for hours afterward. Caffeine loves me though. I do miss the Dew! Redbull + vodka is especially awesome, Redbull + Jaeger ain't bad either. I'll still take a dose if I am critically close to passing out and need to stay awake.
 
I drink the Vitamin water. Well that and coffee in the morning. Afterall coffee is the most important mael of the day. :p
 
red bull is good with jagermeister, but i am a fan of full throttle. that stuff is awesome
 
Sometimes here and there, mostly for when i'm up all night scrimming with my team, before a match. Or at a LAN/Lanning or at a lan centre.
 
I drink Vitamin Water Energy (or another) at least once a day. I buy Monster or something like that, maybe once every-other week. No soda, unless eating out, or coffee.
 
Ol'Glory
Rockstar
Redbull
Monster
Mountian Dew energy drink (forget what it is called)
Starbucks double shot
:eek:
 
My energy drink is a good cup of black coffe. :cool:

I dont drink those other drinks, as i read on the web a few years ago that they had a tendency to make you gain weight, and make you more likely to have a heart attack (depending on frequency of x3 or more a week - "red bull").
:(

You do know that the caffeine in the energy drinks is what leads to the heart attacks, right? The fattening aspects don't help, but the caffeine increases the heart rate, which increases the blood pressure, actually causing the heart attack. :eek: And if you don't drink your coffee blacker than the heart of Satan, then your not doing so hot on the fat side either.;)

I prefer to avoid "energy drinks." They have a remarkable tendency to make me (and most my family) tired, due to some whacked genetic disruption related to caffeine and ADD. :confused:

And besides that, if I wanted a fat and heart attack in a can, I'd buy a bunch of cherry pie filling and actually enjoy the taste of what I'm killing myself with. :D
 
The Rockstar juiced versions are good.

I usually keep at least a case of Red Bull in the fridge (vodka + red bull = uberness).
 
I work in a cafe so Ill make myself a fair few double flat whites on any given day. I'm just glad I don't have to put up with whatever starbucks pass off as coffee...aside from that I get free red-bull at work so that and v are my other choices
 
I've never been a fan of those sports/energy drinks, I always imagine them tasting pretty horrible, like the sweat of the people advertising them on telly. I'm not that desperate for a quick jolt, and the mains socket seems like the better option if I did...

I am fairly keen on different coffees, though. Not Starbucks, the real stuff, Italian espressos and what have you.
 
I like to try one out every once in a while just to see how they taste, but I've given up sodas, caffeine, and other unhealthy things, and energy drinks fall under that category. :(

I never really drank them often anyways. Maybe 1 every few months.
 
If I'm tired in the morning I'll usually find some caffeine. Often this is in the form of an energy drink. I stick to the sugar-free ones though; Gotta keep slim for the ladies...
 
I used to drink Cocaine before it was "banned by the man." I kept a can of it since they stopped producing it a long time ago.
 
My bro told me about that, but I've never tried/seen one. Why ban?
 
I dont even know if they count as energy drinks (although they are usually sold on the same shelf and have the thin little can), but i frequently buy "Airforce", a soda made in my home state of minnesota right nearby, and was initially marketed at airport vendors, but now seems to be sold elsewhere, at least in Minnesota. I odnt know if it's sold anywhere else, i didnt see it while i was going to school in California anywhere.

I've tried 10-20 different brands, but no energy drink ever gave me any "energy" beyond a 5 minute buzz.

Its still for sale at the local party store. Have yet to buy one though.
 
I drink lots and lots of coffee. But I don't actually think it helps at all. I just like the taste :D

I tried an energy drink once before a final exam in college. I didn't seem to feel a thing...

Never really bothered to try it again. I like running off natural energy :D
 
It's encouraging to see how many of you don't drink energy drinks, and those who do, aren't living off them. I'm surprised to see this, coming from a computer forum. :p

I must admit to having Starbucks Frappucino every once in a while, it actually has the reverse effect of relaxing me a bit.
 
i only drink them if im going to an event or really need the energy for something.. and if i do its usualy a monster or redbull
 
I don't buy energy drinks at all. But if [Hard] made when, I would be buying packs weekly. It's kind of like supporting your favorite team by buying their merchandise :D
 
I'm not really big on energy drinks. Usually blue powerades are good enough for me.
 
want energy dip a cigarette in water nuke in a microwave and smoke.your head may come off.is this general hardware?:confused:
 
Some taste okay and some taste like total shit....the only one that I truly like is Redbull, for the simple reason that (someone already pointed out) it tastes like a liquified sweet-tart and packs a strong punch for a small can that can be downed in a couple chugs.:cool:
