Ever dream of drinking watered down cola? Me neither! What if it had a splash of caffeine? No, still not appealing? I didn’t think so either. Well if you are masochistic enough you can try the new Red Bull Cola; it not only assaults your taste buds but also is a huge let down on the energy front.
For starters, I will admit that I have never been a huge fan of Red Bull and I am drawn to drinks with a little more kick. Nonetheless, Red Bull has come out with another disappointment. In my opinion Red bull has never performed admirably on either the taste or the kick front, but this new flavor is definitely a new low for the Austrian company. The flavor is reminiscent of a cola that has had too much of the ice melt into it and the kick is nothing compared to anything within its price range. On the other hand the packaging is quite appealing and begs the average consumer to taste the vile bile within.
While I’ve never been an avid Red Bull fan, I will gladly give them the respect they deserve for starting the energy junkie phenomenon that has swept the country during the past few years. With this in mind, I would advise that all of you energy connoisseurs try it once and see what you think. For the rest of the reading public, I believe that this drink should come with its own warning label that would caution all drinkers to stay away unless you have no taste buds left and would like to throw your money away. Don’t Buy It, Don’t Chug It, But try to Stay Wired!!

I actually liked this drink a lot. Got one just about every day until they stopped stocking them at the local gas station. Everyone else I knew who'd tried one said it was awful, though.
