I replaced my morning coffee with this can, and I feel I gained about the same level of focus as if I had gone with my trusty cup of black. I’m not sure if there’s such thing as diet Orange Crush, but this would have that same vibe. The orange smell is pleasant, and the taste is reminiscent of orange soda. It’s like you have to program and calibrate your mouth the first couple sips on each can, but once you’re off and running things start to taste more like you want them to. I popped open the can on my way to work and had a similar first experience to the Cherry Limeade, but this time around I was better prepared for the taste. I started the Cherry Limeade on a Sunday, so the Orange Citrus would be my first live test during the work week on Monday. One flavor down, three days to go.ĭue to these being energy drinks and all, I’m not drinking all four of these in one sitting. The cherry/lime mix is refreshing, and while the aftertaste of low sugar will sting every now and then, this looks like a great option for a slightly less horrible energy drink. I stepped up to a good healthy rip from the top of the can and I was sold a different story. ![]() ![]() I thought about it for a second and realized that I was sipping from the can like a bitch. I poured her a healthy sip and she downed it, much to her pleasure. I was just about to give up on this first flavor but decided to give some to my wife. I took a small sip and I recoiled at the aftertaste. The smell is a little sickly, but nothing different than you’d have with a can of Monster. Stupid as that is, let’s move on to the actual drink. The cans look sexy as hell and in my hand I feel like a pretty cool dude walking around with a can of Rowdy. While not zero sugar, the nutrition facts sport 90 calories and around 18 grams of sugar…not bad for this industry. Given the brand logo and cans I’ve seen in promo shots, the Cherry Limeade seems to be the flagship flavor. Let’s take the cans for a spin around the track and see if we can keep it off the wall. I ordered a sample pack of four cans from and it was delivered as quickly as it’s owner drives, so it would seem that we’re already off to a good start. Canned energy drinks for people that have some regard for their internal organs? Not sure if this philosophy can hold up considering the NASCAR fan base, but what the hell, this looks like fun. ![]() NASCAR driver Kyle “Rowdy” Busch has started his own energy drink company, directly going after the mainstream Red Bull(s) and Monster(s) of the world with a little different attitude.
