    I've tried most of the big ones...

    Red Bull

    Sobe

    Monster

    Hansen.

    Pretty sure I'm immune to all of them.

    Any unknown energy drinks out there that work well?

    Red Bull and Rockstar seem to work pretty well for me. Redline is also pretty good, but more expensive.

    I saw a Steven Segal energy drink at 7-11 the other day. Funny stuff.

    Red Line works pretty well.

    Give Black Pearl a try too, mostly a workout energy drink, but seems to do the trick.

    I really like Rockstar, but I'm more interested in taste and the avoidance of nausea. Most energy drinks give me major stomach rot.

    Monster Lo-Carb is my choice. Not a bad taste and seems to get me going.

    Thailand is the ancestral home of energy drinks.

    Red Bull stole the Thai formula, carbonated it, and marketed it in the West and took off.

    If you can find a Thai grocery store near where you live (usually located near Chinatowns or vietnamese neighborhoods) look for the original stuff:

    Kratingdaeng (uncarbonated redbull)
    Carabao or Caribou Daeng
    M-150
    Shark (carbonated)

    They're much cheaper than red bull and better too.

    Red Bull has great kick! But I like the taste of Pimp Juice the most.

    Rockstar kills my stomach.

    Monster taste the best to me, but doesn't kill my stomach.

    Of the three I drink I rank Monster, Red Bull, than Rockstar.

    Red Bull is about the best tasting for me, and it does the trick when I need some concentration in my 3 hour accounting class.

    good news fisher.

    based on your advice, i have ordered carabao from grocerythai.com since I was too lazy to go out and find a thai store.

    i'll probably never get my order, but i shall update the board on this discovery.

    and in addition, i have ordered some **** from chaser.com (5 hour energy, paid $2.95 for shipping on the sample bottle).


    Regards,

    - Lambert

    If you're going to mix an energy drink with liqour, it's all about Jagerbombs.

    Wow I had never even heard of that site! - let me know if the Carabao they sell in the can there is carbonated or not - I try to buy the uncarbonated one which comes in a small glass bottle.

    Oh - I would stay away from the Durian Chips advertised on that site, btw, if you ever want to be able to exhale without asphyxiating anything in a 10 foot radius.
