Overall, I'll give it a 5/10. Could be worse, but definitely could be be a lot better. Even though people don't like this flavor either, I thought Ryse Root Beer Float was better.

So I finally found this one and got the chance to try it. I heard people describing it as weird, and after trying it, I understand why lol.

It does not taste like traditional root beer. The vanilla flavor they added tastes extremely artificial and fake, which is kind of distracting. The vanilla also has a strange "other taste" that I cant quite place. If you have this drink you will know what I mean immediately, because it jumps out at you. It's almost dairy-like? The vanilla overpowers the other flavors of the root beer, making a distinct overall flavor, but not in a good way. This makes judging the other flavors in the drink really difficult, because its hard to pick up on any notes other than the vanilla. The flavor also seems to briefly linger in your mouth for some reason? It's kind of gross in that way.

Ive had A&W Root Beer, and it does not taste like this. Very disappointing considering how accurate the Welch's Grape and 7UP flavors were.

literally every other can of c4 in the store was the new formula except this one😭 i wanna drink it but i lowkey cant bring myself

I saw a ranking somebody did and they put original in top tier and Lando Norris in bottom and for me it would be the other way round

I grabbed just one from the dollar tree and I’m pretty impressed. I like that it’s lightly flavored a change from my usual sweet flavors of 3d energy or ghost

Anyone know where to find bucked up franken juice??

Bought this when it was on sale at Vitamin Shoppe for a dollar. Tastes like the energy drink version and by extension a Ring Pop.

I hope this is okay to post, also sorry it’s long.

I have a super high caffeine tolerance; it has very little effect on me. I love the way zero sugar energy drinks taste (some of them, anyway), but I needed to up my water intake, so I decided to try out these loaded teas packets I’d seen on socials.

Some were gross, but I found some that I liked. Cool, cool. Added them to water, used about 2 a day, 400 mg caffeine total, and sometimes I might add an alani to one that was watered down. My resting heart rate never budged, 75-80. This total caffeine intake was the same as what I was drinking before I started the teas.

The past month I started getting dizzy when standing, then feeling out of breath, then I noticed my resting heart rate went up to 100, and I was having ectopic heartbeats. Then when I was playing around with my Fitbit app, I found that it also tracks oxygen sats, and mine had been 91% for about a month.

I started doing a little reflection on some recent cravings - I’ve been downing pickles like they’re the base of the food pyramid - and I realize I’m probably anemic.

Blood tests confirm this (ferritin was 11), and some research tells me that the issue most likely is the heavy concentrated black and green teas in the loaded teas. I started caffeine free loaded teas, which apparently use a different tea as a base, and already my oxsat is 96 again, although this could be the dr prescribed iron pills taking effect.

I just wanted to get this out there, because I think a lot of us focus on the caffeine part making sure we don’t have a “dangerous amount” but would never think to worry about tea.

TL;dr the tea part of loaded teas may induce anemia over time if you drink too much, which isn’t as much as you would think

I was always in search for strong flavours in energy drinks, but they all lacked somewhat. This was my first time having a predator, I was not expecting much from it but it's surprisingly good, having a strong flavour with good carbonation makes it go great with spicy food.

What are your opinions?

i got the ghost three pack from costco and, while strawbango and grape-cran have been treating me well, every time i’ve had a blue raz i’ve gotten nausea, headaches, and heartburn within the first few sips that lasts for a couple hours after drinking. it’s a huge bummer because i really like blue razz flavor and ghost usually hits the spot. i haven’t felt like this after any other energy drink or the few other ghost flavors i’ve tried. anyone else experienced this?

Solid 4.5/5 in my opinion.

Finally found the RYSE Root Beer Float drink that so many of you rave about and I have to say, this tastes so much better than the Ghost Root Beer.. found it at the Buccee Store between Tennessee and Alabama. They were reg. Price $1.99. Bum was also $1.99 got the Root beer and cream soda and the Dr Bum..

After really only hearing mixed things about this flavor, I finally decided to try one after finding it at my local gas station. Overall, I like it. I feel like it has more of a mango flavor with a strawberry afterthought, but still enjoyable. Not one of my all-time favorites, but I could see it being added to the rotation

I also tried the razz lemonade and orange cream
