It is very nice, but also… Mango Loco.

Mango loco #1, whatever the white sugar free can is #2. Because sometimes I don’t want to speed run diabetes.

I used to regularly buy a case of the white can to bring into work for myself and my colleagues to share. We burned through them.

Have you tried the sugarfree watermelon variety? Had a solid week of drinking that exclusively after first trying it.

The sugar free ones kinda get old fast for me, I really used to like the green ones (paradise I think) but now I can’t stand them.

Similar things happened with most of the other sugar free flavors.

In the end I decided that I should really just not drink them at all and now they’re a nice treat once in a while when I need a bit of energy and something very sweet.

Honestly, I prefer sugar to date, even though I know it isn’t good for most parts of me. Dunno, those artificial sweeteners are just… they always feel like I’m drinking sweetened aspirin.

That’s why I value anything sugar-free which can hold my attention. I know I should prioritise discipline, but given how things are going nowadays… Well, let’s say a bit of hedonism has become a must for me in maintaining a semblance of psychological stability…

My brain works in fantastic ways so I have absolutely no idea. I don’t think I have, but that doesn’t mean I haven’t. I’ll see if my store even has any tomorrow.

Can relate, though my memory seems to be functional when related to taste.

Thoroughly recommend a taste if you manage to find some, it felt simultaneously fresh and nostalgic (used to have a lot of processed fruit juice/soda variety when growing up).

Ugh, Ultra tastes like metallic Lilt, utterly vile (to me).

Mango Loco’s good, but it kinda’… loses its novelty after the first half of the second can… Honestly prefer the peach one (forgot the name) over Mango Loco:-?

I think the peach one is the Nitro version? That is also yummy, though less so to me.

Edit: Just replied from my replies pane, forgot Monarch, that is yummy, but I can taste the sweeteners in it just about.

Personally I miss old Ripper, I swear they changed it (probably sweeteners) from what used to fuel me at Uni in the 2000s.

Oh, definitely not perfect, genuine peach and nectarine juice is lightyears ahead, still! But close enough, y’know?

Yet another variety I never knew existed! See, this is why I hate the internet, it always reveals more and more regrets…

Peach and nectarine is Monarch?

Yes, that one! Thank you! Really nice, especially love to drink a can before starting my evening relaxation period, ironically. Peach is just such a calming flavour in general, I find.

Be sure to follow the rule before you head out.
