I won’t say this is the tastiest energy drink I’ve ever had. I’ll give this fun yet crowded day at the boardwalk out of rad. Sadly the sucralose is garbage and kinda hurts this otherwise pretty good drink. This is supposed to be an energy juice so the sweetness of the sugar isn’t going to beat out the sucralose. See, this isn’t like Punch Monster where it was supposed to be overwhelmingly sweet. Why, Monster, did you have to put sucralose in this? It would have been fine without it. The nice tropical flavour is still there, but it is doing a dangerous tango with sucralose. You know what I mean? I can sense the medicine taste, but the fruit flavour outshines it. ![]() It does sting a little from the medicine taste, but that is held back by the strong pineapple flavour. Then a wave of pineapple comes in and reminds me that this is a nice tropical beverage. You get a strong fruity taste with the kinda pop of bubbles, yet there is no bubbles. Well, the initial taste is of sparkling cider a little. The pineapple scent is a lot stronger than the banana, but both are apparent. It smells like it has sat out for a little. I get a strong pineapple and banana scent to it, but it doesn’t really smell fresh. ![]() What does this smell like? It smells fruity, but kinda off. They taste like they have more in them.ĭelaying, yes. The Kickstart cans are kinda small, but still. This automatically has more energy in it by the 200% B Vitamins. If you are looking at its competition, you can turn your head an look at our old friend, Mountain Dew Kickstart. It is like a sunset.īy the way, this is an energy juice. It isn’t pink like the can or straight red. Oh! This is less red than I thought it would be. Pineapple juice too! I wasn’t expecting it from the description, but now that I think of it, it really is a Hawaiian staple. I mean, there’s apple juice too but who cares? They probably grow that in Hawaii too. They have all the juices they mentioned in the text. RED 40 CHAS RAD APPROVED! KIDS OFF THE WALL!

So, shall I move on to the ingredients and facts? Yes I will.Ģ servings in this. At least Monster doesn’t taste so bad compared to other energy drinks. It has all the energy stuff Monster has so that’s fine. That’s not why I buy it though, because the can could be boring, but the drink could be tasty. Sure it feels kinda Hawaiian, but it is kinda boring. Well, other than the texture and pink, this can doesn’t really have anything else going for it. I mean, I liked Baller’s Blend enough, but this is advertised as a “Juice Monster.” I’m expecting this to have more than 10% juice. I’m truly hoping this is more of a juice than a punch. If I ever see you again, I’m buying you a guava. I knew a guy in high school who refused to believe guava was a real fruit. This is apparantly a Hawaiian punch (not THIS one, guys) and has “the best of Hawaii.” They include passion fruit, orange, and guava.įunny story about guava. Yep, it is a nod to surfers and a giant wave that happens in Hawaii every winter. I’ll take a read of it and summarize it for you. ![]() I suppose this is what a surfboard might feel like, but I wouldn’t know since I can’t swim let alone surf.Īs Monster usually does, there’s a little excerpt here. This is called Pipeline Punch and a nod to surfers since they surf through pipelines. It is like sand paper, except way smoother. See the lighter pink flower design think on the left and right? Well, they have this kinda texture you’d feel in a hotel shower. This is a Hawaiian themed drink so I say the pink works darn well. I have a pink polo but that is only to be worn during the summer or nice spring weather. He usually has okay taste in things, I guess. I picked this up because I believe Gildem said it was his favourite flavour of Monster. I picked up two Monster drinks that are both Hawaii themed. So, here we go with this Hawaiian weekend. ![]()
