Pretty much as expected

I'm not a fan of V8 to begin with. I love veggies in smoothies and on their own but I have never like them in store bought juce form. It tastes like fruit but the veggie presence is strong. No carbonation which I wasn't a fan of but I did enjoy the caffeine coming from green tea and it didn't taste overly chemical based for a change!

V8 + Energy Pom + Blueberry

I received the V8 +ENERGY POMEGRANTE BLUEBERRY to try for free in exchange for my honest opinion and was super excited as I have never tried or heard of this energy drink before. I drink tons of coffee but tend to stay away from energy drinks for caffeine consumption purposes. V8 makes fantastic juices which I love so I had faith that this was going to be a great product and I really enjoyed it!

I drank the product yesterday at around 1:30. It was a normal day in which I woke up at the same time I always do (6:30 AM) I worked my normal 8 hour day and I only had one cup of coffee in the morning. Usually I go to bed around 10-10:30 but last night I was in bed by 9. I don't think obviously that the product made me more tired, but I definitely don't think it gave me any energy. Throughout the last few hours of my work day I didn't feel any less tired and I did not have any more energy then usually do. I find this strange because the can at 237mL is smaller then a small can of redbull which has 250mL but they both have the same amount of caffeine content per can at 80mg (equivalent to one cup of coffee!).

The taste of the drink is awesome! You can really taste the blueberry and I love that there are no artificial sweeteners, flavours or colors! I hate artificial tasting drinks and drinks that contain artificial sweetners. They have the worst aftertaste. This drink is fantastic from start to finish. It's a little bit sour but nothing to bad and It has a nice little punch to it. I love that the caffeine comes from green tea which makes me feel a lot better about drinking it. It also has a great amount of vitamins like other V18 juices and it gives you 140% of your daily intake of B12 - something I happen to be low in! Lastly, I love that the product is NOT carbonated which really makes it feel like im drinking more of a juice then an energy drink. Overall I would not purchase this product again as an energy drink but I would purchase it for the taste and price.

I bought this at the Co-op Gastation because I needed a quick energy drink that didn't contain tons of sugar. I pretty amazed how delightful this tasted. It was not too sweet tasting, it didn't have an artificial taste like most energy drinks tend to be, the caffeine is from Green Tea and All Natural Flavors. Nothing artificial in this drink whatsoever! I also noticed right away that this drink only contained 50 calories! It does contain 13 grams of sugar. It's not often you find drinks that are so low in calories and taste good at the same time. You can really taste the blueberry in this drink and it's not a strong tasting beverage.

I'm really sensitive too Taurine so I try too avoid that in any drink and this one contains zero taurine! I will most defiantly buy this energy drink again and test the other flavours they have in this line of drinks.
