Energy Drinks...
Do an of you DUers out there partake of those carbonated energy drinks that come in the little cans? i.e. Red Bull, 180, Rockstar, Monster...

1. My husband likes them
I hate the taste and I almost have a panic attack.

4. same thing happens to me!
I used to drink two of them every night before I went out on weekends last summer, and I couldn't figure out why I was having anxiety attacks when I'd never had them before (yeah, it's pretty obvious in hindsight). stopped drinking energy drinks, anxiety attacks stopped. now I just try to get enough sleep:)

5. Rockstar is my favorite.
It has milk thistle.

Though Sparks is killer.

Red-Bull is so 1993. And the nicest way to describe the taste is "dissolved rotten gummy bears".

7. I have a new favorite
This power-house is by Jones Soda Co. It's 16-ounces of pure energy! It's like drinking a six-pack of Red Bull.

The downside is if you drink too much of this stuff your heart will, unfortunately, explode.

8. I had one called "Battery"
Haven't seen it in the US. I had in Costa Rica. The can was like a battery w/ a positive and negative and the taste was what I imagine battery acid tastes like.

9. I like Battery!
I prefer Red Bull, but Battery is ok...

I don't drinking them much, though... in excess, they will cook your stomach.
