Review for Red Rain Downpour

CAFFEINE CONTENT

142 mg

EASE IN ACQUISITION—4

Haven’t seen this or any other Red Rain product outside of Dollar Tree; check there if interested.

APPEARANCE/PRESENTATION—6

The bright colors give this can make it so it doesn’t fade into the background so badly as Red Rain; still, the plain can (other than the pinstripe) doesn’t do a whole lot for me.

TASTE—7

The can calls this drink “cherry limeade”, so that’s about what I expected.  The first swig tasted like maraschino cherry syrup—and all I could think was “Ick!”  The cherry flavor mellowed out, however, and soon I wasn’t minding the drink so much.  It wasn’t life-changing, mind you, but it was still passable.

KICK (INTENSITY)—7

About average, but at the same time, not so painfully standard as to cause me offense.  It isn’t the strongest pick-me-up, but it should get the job done for your day-to-day requirements.

KICK (DURATION)—7

Effects last around three hours.  No crash.

THE DRINK OVERALL—7

I wasn’t wowed by Red Rain Downpour, but at the same time, I didn’t dislike it.  If you’re not needing a huge boost and like cherry limeade, give Red Rain Downpour a shot—it’s not all that bad for a buck.
