Rockstar XDurance

Posted in Reviews with tags , , , , , , on 05/11/2012 by Brett

Just like NOS, Rockstar has released more new flavors into Canada. But Rockstar has released three new flavors: XDurance, Rehab and Iced. My review today will be about Rockstar XDurance. First of all: I was quite intrigued about the name of the drink itself: XDurance. Figured I could use a little extra endurance one day, so I tried this one. And I am quite impressed with how this drink tastes. It combines acai, blueberry and pomegranate flavors into one drink, as well as branched chain amino acids (BCAA), which gives anyone that extra endurance they need for anything any day of the week! And the first time I tried this: I definitely felt it working. Not saying I could bench press a ’57 Chevy after drinking a can, but certainly felt pretty strong after. So give Rockstar XDurance a try today. You won’t be disappointed. Monday’s review: Rockstar Rehab.

Talon Energy Juice Pomegranate & Grape

Posted in Reviews with tags , , , , on 06/10/2011 by Brett

So Talon Energy has been one energy drink I have wanted to review for a while. And one drink in their line-up is their energy juice, which combines pomegranate and grape flavors. I always say there is no way anyone can screw up grape. Talon is no exception. But combining it with pomegranate? It was very, very good! Right when I opened the can and received a nice whiff of it, I knew things would be good. And I was right. Absolutely delicious. And what else is cool is when I picked up some Talon, there was a 2 for $4 special going on. Like a date with your favorite supermodel, you can’t turn that down! You’d be nuts to.

So go out and get a can of Talon Energy Juice today. You’ll be glad you did!

Rockstar Juiced Pomegranate

Posted in Reviews with tags , , , , on 03/30/2010 by Brett

For the last three years, Rockstar has had their line of energy juices on the market. A few reviews ago, you would have seen a review done on Rockstar Juiced Guava. One energy juice that Rockstar has had in Canada for the last three years is their Pomegranate juice. One thing that health experts have determined is pomegranates have excellent antioxidant properties, which in this healthy society nowadays is nice to know. But Rockstar Juiced Pomegranate also has an excellent taste. Now, this isn’t a true “juice,” because they use carbonated water. Nevertheless, it tastes great and has always been a favorite of mine. It would be a sad, sad day if they ever pulled this drink from the market.

As always: Keep up the great work, Rockstar!
