Rockstar Energy Drink with Caffeine Taurine and Electrolytes, Recovery Orange, 16 Fl Oz (Pack of 12)

Rockstar recoveries are great for hangovers, and I like the lack of carbonation. Even when I'm getting tired on the road, these perk me up way more than a Monster.I wish stores stocked these consistently. They're not syrupy, and feel light and easy to drink. The convenience stores and party stores around me are hit and miss on this line of Rockstars. Most energy drinks are tolerable, but taste too sweet and fake.I miss the PIna Colada ones though.

Great taste, great value. These are my husband's favorite and it was nice to find a pack with multiple.

This is a frequent purchase for us. A member of our household prefers this energy drink over many others due to the clean flavor and low carbs. We also purchase the Recovery lemonade for the same reasons.

Just finished a workout and feeling drained? Craving that sweet, lemony goodness, but also need a little pick-me-up? Look no further than Rockstar Recovery Lemonade!This isn't your average energy drink. It ditches the fizz for a smooth, lemonade taste and packs a punch with caffeine, electrolytes, and B vitamins. Think of it as a post-workout reward that also gives you a little extra oomph.Tastes great: Seriously, it's like sunshine in a can.No fizz: Perfect if you're not a fan of the bubbly stuff.Electrolytes: Helps you rehydrate after sweating it out.B vitamins: May give you a little extra pep in your step.Sugar-free: Bonus points for those watching their sugar intake.But before you go chugging a whole case, keep this in mind:The "shock" comes from the caffeine: 160mg is a lot, so be mindful of jitters and avoid downing them like soda.Artificial sweeteners: Not everyone's a fan, and there's some debate about their health effects.It's not magic: A healthy diet and exercise are still your best bet for long-lasting energy.Overall, Rockstar Recovery Lemonade is a decent choice for an occasional pick-me-up, especially after exercise.

Wow, the reviews for this energy drink are *terrible* - not sure why - but I found this drink to be surprisingly good! It appears that I am in the minority here, but hear me out:Okay, so I have never had a Rockstar energy drink (what can I say, I live a 'sheltered life,' lol); so I honestly cannot compare to previous formulas, like most of the reviewers here have done.That said, I was surprised... and only in a *good* way!There were NO bad "surprises," at all, whatsoever — and no "cons!"I have had "Monster" energy drinks... and found the taste to be awful.I have had "Red Bull" ... and I found those to be *EVEN WORSE!* I literally cannot stomach red bull energy drinks - they are that gross to me! They turn my stomach. They taste like *medicine* to me... actually, no, I've had *medicine* that tastes better! (Sorry, Red Bull fans... but we're gonna have to agree to disagree here, lol)So, I was a little trepidatious — to say the least — when it came to ordering these. (Luckily, I didn't even*look* at the reviews; and I'm so glad I didn't! (I don't say that line very often, lol).So, the day of my first taste came... and I was shocked - and only in a good way!! This is the *ONLY* energy drink that I have ever liked - or can even "stomach," for that matter. Seriously. I love my caffeine — and who can't use a little "extra" energy or OOMPH in their day?? As someone who has CFS (Chronic Fatigue Syndrome) and an autoimmune disorder that I've struggled with since *childhood* — as well as various other health issues, I will say that *I* certainly can! So, anyway, onto the taste:For those that have never tasted this particular drink/flavor, but are familiar with Mountain Dew (I also enjoy many of *their* flavors; *especially* the orange "Livewire" - which is my favorite Mt Dew flavor), I will say that, to me, it tastes very much like a subdued (and less carbonated) version of their orange LIVEWIRE. That is the closest thing I can compare it to. It's perfect for me! The pick-me-up was also appreciated - and I also felt it delivered a good "jolt" (pun intended) of energy; in other words, it served its purpose and lived up to its name — it gave me some much-needed energy and the taste is great, to me!!If you've never had a Rockstar energy drink, and are not even familiar with the "old" formula vs the "new" formula and/or you enjoy Mt Dew LiveWire, give this a go!! I think you will enjoy it. If not, I'm sorry but I offer no money-back guarantees, lol.Bottom Line? For those searching for a new energy drink or a new flavor, and are wondering what this tastes like: It's a nice soft, subtle orange-y flavor reminiscent of Live Wire - so if you enjoy Mountain Dew's "LiveWire," I think you would really enjoy this flavor! I did! Obviously, I feel a little "alone" in that opinion atm (according to other reviewers) but who cares?! All that matters to me is that I enjoyed it and that it added a little extra pizzaz to my day. I did - and it did! I hope you will enjoy it as well!Salud!

First time trying Rockstar drinks and for someone who does not like carbonated beverages, this non-carb version is great! Has that OG orange taste from Gatorade/childhood drinks.

I love this brand and this particular item. No carbonation, lots of caffeine and very little sugar.

I order these frequently and never had an issue. They taste like lemonade, always arrive in tact and not damaged. Leave me feeling good and awake. 0 sugar which is a must for me. Love these.
