NOS Sonic Sour

If you like anything green apple, I think you’ll like this drink. It’s not too sweet, not too sour, and goes down smooth with a nice kick.

Introduction

As much as I like NOS, my love for Monster Zero Ultra has drawn me away recently. Time to get back to my roots - albeit with a brand new flavor. Super excited to try NOS Sonic Sour.

Taste

8.5

Taste is sour green apple, which I feel like is a thin line to walk. There’s a high risk, in my opinion, of making it either too sweet or too sour. NOS Sonic Sour walks this line. It’s close to being too sweet, but I think they nailed the balance. Imagine squeezing the juice out of a green jolly rancher and you get this drink.

Cool logo, above average can.

Kick

8

As a true Caffeine Shark, I rarely get a “kick” or caffeine rush that I used to get from standard, 160mg energy drinks. Which makes it even more impressive that NOS Sonic Sour gave me a noticeable rush. I felt wired for about 3 hours of gaming with no negative effects.

Conclusion

If you like anything green apple, I think you’ll like this drink. It’s not too sweet, not too sour, and goes down smooth with a nice kick. My only hesitation is that I wouldn’t drink this multiple days in a row, for example, because it’s such a strong, specific flavor. But as a change of pace drink I highly recommend it.
