As an Architecture student, you spend a lot of night's working on projects, with little or no sleep. Well, tonight is no different for me. I'm working on s site analysis that is due tomorrow night for a project that is located in South Beach. It's hard to stay alert and focused throughout the night, so I often turn to things like energy drinks, coffee, and tea to keep me going.
One energy drink I really like is "Rx Energy" by Arizona. It's a beige can with a black and white illustration of runners on the front. The front says: "An invigorating blend of green tea, tropical & citrus fruits, panax ginseng, eleuthero root, guarana, schisandra, and vitamins A, C & E." I like it because it doesn't have that metallic-cough syrup taste that most energy drinks have. Also, it's only 99 cents, which means I can get two large 23oz cans of it for less than it would cost to buy one 8oz can of Red Bull. Now, it definitely doesn't pack as much of a punch as Red Bull, but I'm fine with that.
Another thing I like is 5 Hour Energy. It definitely does its job of keeping me up for a while, but I don't use it much because I have a hard time bringing myself to pay $3 for a little 2oz shot. Sometimes I will just drink a glass of green tea if I don't need much of a boost.
Do you have any opinions on energy drinks or any favorite brands? If so, leave a comment!
energy drinks are way too expensive. thats why i stick with my coffee
ReplyDeleteI heard energy drinks do some weird shit to your balls. Specifically your sperm cells. It was on the news.
ReplyDeleteEnergy drinks are only good with vodka, you get drunk and energized.
ReplyDeleteExtremely bad for your heart, though.
i only drink water. hellyea
ReplyDeleteLove the taste of energy drinks, especially Red Bull, but i prefer coffee whenever i need a boost
ReplyDeleteI stick with the old staples of tea and coffee. I think energy drinks are gimmicky. Is that Rx stuff generic because that is cheap.
ReplyDeleteMike, it's not generic, it's produced by AriZona tea company. They are a great company. A lot of their teas come in large 23oz cans and only cost 99 cents.
ReplyDeleteJust eat an apple instead, energy drinks aren't too great for you
ReplyDeletebeware of energy drinks, they can harm you if you drink too much
ReplyDeletelike thecatz said drinking some water is good keeping you energized, your body is like a hydroelectric plant.
ReplyDeletea little extra sleep at night helps you a lot more than a drink full of chemicals can.
ReplyDeleteThe point was I had to work late at night and didn't have time to sleep. Trust me, I'd much rather get a good night's sleep.
ReplyDeleteI've tried the 5 hour, it works but makes me feel weird. Usually if I exercise in the morning I have more energy throughout the day, can't guarantee that will work for you though.
