![]() ![]() Then it transitions into a sort of sweet taste, but it is mostly sweet from sugar and not really fruit. The initial sip first brought a lot of sour taste to it and it was kind of tingly. Well, it doesn’t taste terrible if I’m honest. I would know what a mango smells like since I bought one WITH this drink, mind you! It smells sweet all in all, but it doesn’t really smell all that fruity. It has a fruity scent, but it is mostly dulled down, probably from the sugary-sweet aroma. This shade of yellow can only be obtained by chemicals. Seriously, though, it is a very unnatural looking yellow. Agh! Is snake venom supposed to look like urine?! It was bubbly and foamy too when coming out so, ugh. I’m not even going to tip-toe around this it looks like urine. Oh well, maybe the natural flavouring is really that good. There isn’t any juices to help dilute the vitamin flavouring. It is just corn syrup! I’m kinda iffy now reading the ingredients. Seriously, there’s sucralose, corn syrup, and natural flavouring with glucose. I see a lot of energy stuff and very little flavourings. Monster and NOS seem to have 2 servings per can so it is really more like 400%, but this is 99 cents so buying two is still slightly cheaper than buying one Monster.Ĭarbonated water, corn syrup, glucose, citric acid, maltodextrin, taurine, sodium citrate, l-carnitine, inositol, caffeine, sodium benzoate, potassium sorbate, niacinamide, natural flavors, sucralose, ginseng extract, pyridoxine hydrochloride, guarana extract, caramel color, riboflavin, yellow 6, yellow 5, cycanocobalamin. ![]() This doesn’t mess around, does it? 200% is on par with the big ol’ companies like Monster. Don’t drink this kids or pregnant women!Ģ30 calories. Well, let’s jump to the facts and ingredients! It has mango flavouring too so it isn’t “fruit punch” or whatever others put to make it sounds as generic as possible. Well, they have the money to make a decent drink so I don’t see why this won’t be any good. Pepper product! I didn’t know they were in the market, quite frankly. I guess their catch phrase is “own it” since it says that on the top as well as in their excerpt. I dig this and if it tastes good, I will surely buy more, especially for 99 cents. I gotta say, Venom has a really well designed and cool can. I just noticed the V and the M make a point that’s like snake fangs. So, their blend is taurine, guarana, l-carnitine, ginseng, and B Vitamins. Kinda reminiscent of Monster’s claw thing.īasically, it gives me a little “you need the venom bite of a Killer Taipan for energy!” Not a direct quote, but close enough. Well, what else can I say? Is there any excerpts? The eye thing looks pretty cool. None of this really matters if it tastes terrible. Whatever! 99 cents for this is a good deal since it looks pretty much the same size as a Monster can. Though, it can’t really be the AriZona of energy drinks since AriZona has the Rx Energy. I said” 99 cents for a mango energy drink in a can that looks pretty well done? This has got to either be a really tricky scheme or this is going to be the AriZona of energy drinks.” You can tell this was cheap because at the top it is advertised as “own it for 99 cents!” Yep! That’s why I got it. I mean, those “tropical” energy drinks might try to have a bit of mango flavouring, but none feature it as the main flavour. That’s kind of cool because you don’t see a lot of mango represented in the energy drink world. The flavouring for this drink is mango with energy. ![]() So, yeah, I’m drinking an energy drink that is named after one of the most deadly snakes in the world. Thankfully, they are only really native to Australia and that part of the globe, so I doubt I have to worry about one breaking into my home and biting me. They are super venomous and some of its species are considered to be one of the most deadly snakes in the world. Venom goes with Killer Taipan which makes it sound like it could kill me. I mean, Monster doesn’t call its sugar-free drink “Boogieman’s Blues” or something like that. At least they are going with the snake theme with this drink. Second, I didn’t know what a Taipan was until I just looked it up online. First of all, I have never even heard of Venom. This is a Venom energy drink that goes by Killer Taipan. Thankfully, I saw this interesting looking drink at my grocery store last week and have been meaning to write about it here. I’m beat today and the beatings will keep on coming tonight so I need a little kick to get me through the day. ![]()
