Grabbing the Red Bull by the horns

Anyone who knows me knows I love a good caffeine buzz. Generally, that comes in the form of a venti Starbucks iced coffee with two extra shots of espresso. The silo, as one co-worker has fearfully dubbed it.

But I've been known to indulge in the occasional "energy drink." Slate has a pretty cool review of these high-test brews, and Red Bull doesn't fair too well.

Energy drinks are the devil!!!

They do things to you that I didn't even think was possible for a harmless looking drink to do.

But dude missed a few:

Crunk Juice - By far the best tasting energy drink out there. Taste like fizzy fruit juice. Had me running laps around a baseball field and there was no harsh let down.

Kronik - So nasty I couldn't even finish the can...and it smells like its namesake to the point that while drinking it at work I was asked if I would take a drug test. I said no.

This joint does the real run down on dam near every energy drink (or crack in a can as I like to call it) out there: http://www.bandddesigns.com/energy/

Red Bull- a fine substitute for alcohol for those with addictive personalities.
