I read about this drink a while ago. There was some contraersy about it because of the name and because of the caffiene content. It claims to have energy equal to 3 1/2 red bulls.
Heres a link to the official web site for it: http://drinkcocaine.com/mainindex.php
Now I'm an energy drink connoisseur, I've tried almost every one I could find. I went to a gas station that has every energy drink I've ever seen, (it's one of the only places in CT that carries bawls) and I found it. So I decided to try it out, because I just had to.
Now it claims to have 350% more energy than red bull. Out of all the energy drinks I've tried, red bull gives me the least energy. I know this is the most well known energy drink, but honestly it tastes awfull and it doesn't give you as much energy as most other drinks.
I really don't think this drink is 3.5 times stronger than red bull, though. It gave me a lot of energy, and more than redbull, but it really wasn't that special. One drink I can think of that gave me more energy was a 24 oz. can on Monster. Now that was a kick. This drink did not give me as much as the big Monster cans.
On the claim that it gives you a euphoric feeling similar to the real drug...I've never had cocaine the drug before, (uhh, drugs are bad!) but I didn't really feel anything more than a bit of a jolt in my legs. I think this is probably a bs claim.
Now the taste...the site claims it tastes like a fireball. My first reaction when I took a sip was that it was really cool, and it did taste like a fireball. Next, it started to burn my throat. Then, about halfway through the can, it started to taste gross and I was sick of it. The taste was unique and cool at first, but then it became almost unbearable. I think red bull even tasted better.
There seems to be less crap in your drink than other energy drinks. Why? Because we only put into Cocaine what we thought was needed - Nothing else. We worked hard at giving Cocaine a kick without being sickly sweet. We think it worked!
This had to be the sweetest drink I've ever had. It had wayy too much sugar in it, and it tasted like soda syrup. I think the makers were on real cocaine when they made this claim. (you know I had to make one joke in this post about it)
One thing people use energy drinks for a lot is for mixing with hard alcohol. (jagermeister,vodka, or rum, usually; but jagermeister makes the best mixer by far) You can't even taste the alcohol in most of these drinks. I've read a lot of bad things about doing this, but I've made energy drinks with alcohol plenty of times. But if your not going to listen to these health warnings, please listen to mine: DON'T USE REDBULL FOR MIXING. Redbull is an 8 oz energy drink, and it costs a little over $2. This gets you about 2-4 mixes, depending on how you make them. There are energy drinks out there that are 16 oz, which would get you 4-8 drinks. Most of these drinks mix just as good as red bull, if not better. I can tell you 2 that are better tasting drinks than red bull: Monster Assault (red camo can) and Lost. So you get more for less money here. Also, stay away from Full throttle, this is an awful mixer.
I haven't mixed cocaine yet, but I think it will either be a really cool, unique tasting drink, or it could taste awful. I'm gonna try it out soon, and I'll post the results.
So overall, I think this is a pretty bad drink. It was cool to try, but I wouldn't buy these regularly. If I really neeeded energy I would just buy a 24 oz can of Monster, because it actually tastes good, and gives me more energy.
It's really hard to find this stuff right now, but I think people are selling it on ebay. If it's really expensive, I would say forget it, unless you love energy drinks like I do.
