I found a new energy drink called XS, it has 8 calories, 0 sugar, and tastes pretty good...Look at this comparison chart.

How much sugar is in XS drink?
There is less than 1/2 calorie of sugar in XS Energy Drink. This qualifies for the government-approved statement "No Sugar". The 8 calories in XS are from amino acids and are protein calories that aid your body’s natural metabolic process.

Most 8 ounce energy drinks in the market today have over 100 calories from 27-30 grams of sugar, which is a simple carbohydrate. Most 12 ounce non-diet soft drinks have 170 calories from 40 grams of sugar. Most 5.5 ounce juice drinks have 80 calories from 20 grams of sugar.

Energy Drink Calories: XS Citrus Blast® 8
Red Bull® 110
Sobe Adrenaline Rush® 140
Impulse® 110
For comparison: Coca Cola® (12 oz) 140

Is XS safe for diabetics?
XS drinks are exactly what diabetics have been looking for. With zero sugar, diabetics can safely enjoy great taste with great benefits and the extra boost of energy they need.

Interesting if your a diabetic ^

I just had 2 and I'm feeling a buzz, it tastes pretty good, and I guess it would help when riding because there isn't a sugar crash..If your interested in buying some PM me.

What kind of energy drink do you buy?

I drink those Amp drinks by Mountain Dew all the time just cause they taste good, and they mix damn good with some Crown Royal... :D

I'm completely upsessed with Monster Low cal energy drink.. its amazing how much better i feel during the day after i drink one, it just wakes me right up..

I have about 2 a day on average, and the blue and black can only has 10 calories and no sugar i believe.. good stuff!!!

Beer is different ... beer actually tastes good and after a few I hardly even notice it's carbonated .

Red Bull on the other hand tasted awful when I tried it . I drank half a can and threw it out . LOL

I'll just stick to taking a shot of Tequila then . :D They gotta make the stuff taste better before I try another one . If it tasted anything like Powerade , I'd be all over it . I drink 2 or 3 Powerade per day !!!:devil:

To the people that say they drink one before a race or any athletic activity you should stop. Energy drinks are only good to keep you awake or get u awake in the morning. For racing they are bad because they give you the "buzz" or hype for a little bit and then wear you out. If you race MX and you have one before the first moto or before the practice you will be dead tired when the first moto or 2nd moto come around. Plus they are filled with crap that is not good for high endurance sport and activity.

I used to drink them all the time but i did a little research on them and came to the conclusion to not drink them before a race or just for a drink. I will only drink one to wake me up.

I like Lost energy drink the most, if I can find it. Monster has revised their old formula, and it is the EXACT same thing as Lost, so I just buy Monster now cuz you can get it anywhere.

The absolute worst ever energy drink I tried was Rockstar. I drank one of those one night studying and I got so ill it wasn't even funny. I was crashing hardcore and it was the worst feeling/headache ever. I almost thought I was going to puke at some point. Way too strong, never again..:ermm:

I'll stick with what works for me :D

I forgot about that one I have drank that if I remember right it had a citrus taste wasn't terrible. I like no fear, and monster there are so many energy drinks now its getting out of hand. I just tried some Hydr8 blue rasberry more of a sports drink not too bad.

last weekend when I was the 30 sec board girl at Houston Supercross... you could get free food and drinks in the staff office and I tried a Monster energy drink for the first time...I am now hooked... that and thats all me and my friends have been drinking lately. I just bought a bunch of them and they are all gone bc we were up working on my quad till 2 am. Also I have had a cold for the last 4-5 days and those Monster drinks definitely make me feel better.

Another energy drink I would like to try is Bookoo but havent seen any in the stores around here.

Energy drinks, like beer is an aquired taste. I used to not be able to get down half of a Monster in a day now I down at least 2 a day - usually in about a 5 minute period. I plan on kidney failure when im 20.
