    I got to admit I am in college and I have only had one before that was Red Bull a few years ago. I did not like the taste since I figured most of the them tastes the same. However I have all nighter ahead of me and need some extra energy to get through the rest of the night since I was only able to get 3 hours of sleep last night and I am dragging. Any suggestions on some that are good and will do the trick?

    Starbucks Doubleshot is the only one that really works for me.

    Also, AMP tastes good, like Mountain Dew.

    AMP like it has been said, tastes like Mountain Dew. I like it.

    My senior year last year I was up late at night a lot. Those 5 hour shots usually did the trick...until I think it just didn't work for me anymore.

    5 Hour Energy does it for me. If I'm trying to concentrate late at night and I drink a Monster or Red Bull, I usually get really flustered. 5 Hour Energy feels a lot better.

    5 hour energy should work if you've never taken it. BUt if you over do, it stops working.

    Lately I drink the ones with juice in them.

    My favorite is the Monster M80 and the Rockstar with Guava.

    Get 6 Hour Energy Shot

    I am on one right now and I was about to fall asleep at 4 pm, it is now 9:30 and I am wide awake. I hate energy drinks as well and never even tried one before college (this is my freshman year). Make sure and get the fruit punch one. It is only one quick sip and it just tastes like watered down gatorade. Doesn't taste good, but it isn't terrible. I have taken it a few times this year for all-nighters and such and it has worked with fantastic results.

    (The mocha version though)

    These are the 2 drinks I've been drinking lately, and I'll probably stick with just these 2 because they have worked for me very well.

    I think I run more on caffeine than anything.

    A medium cup of coffee gets me as jolted as any energy drink.

    A red bull just kind of stimulates the brain a bit. Gets me thinking about things.
