RedCon1 Vice City
Blast of sweet tropical flavor, and a bigger than expected boost. What's not to love?
Overall Score
/10
Introduction
Free energy drinks always taste better. I don't make the rules.
My buddy Justin picked this up at Vitamin Shoppe for me to try and I couldn't be more excited to try it. WTF is a RedCon1? Never heard of this brand in my life.
Taste
7.8
The taste is definitely true to the can - and the name - if that even makes any sense. Each sip hits with one, massive blast of flavor. No real aftertaste or pre-taste to speak of.
The massive blast of flavor is best described as a tropical candy. Definite hints of pineapple and strawberry, and the fizziness makes me think of pop rocks.
Appearance
8
The can is awesome. It caught my eye even in the picture that Justin sent me.
RedCon1 has a cool logo, and the fruit at the top of the can is a nice touch.
Kick
9
200mg of caffeine, with 0 grams of sugar and 0 calories. Not sure if it's the nootropics, taurine, and/or L-carnitine, but definitely a bigger energy boost than I was expecting for 200mg of caffeine.
Conclusion
I think you'll like this one if you're into sweet, carbonated energy drinks. I love the energy blend which should appeal to a wide range of consumers.
