EASE IN ACQUISITION—2
Like (it seems) most Xenergy drinks, this one is taking its sweet time when it comes to getting itself out there. Look a lot or wait a while—either way, you’ll find it eventually.
APPEARANCE/PRESENTATION—6
Bare aluminum—why? These cans look so sleek and good when they’re clad in black; but in the plain silver everything just looks bland.
TASTE—9
“Creamy” is not the first word that comes to mind when one asks what I expect in an energy drink, but that’s the first thing that popped to mind when I took my first sip of Tangerine Twister. The effect lessens as you go along but never completely goes away, and it’s just as well—it highlights the tangerine flavor very nicely, kind of like 16 ounces of a liquid tangerine Cream Saver (no, they don’t really exist).
KICK (INTENSITY)—8
If you’ve had any of Xenergy’s newer drinks, you know what to expect—kick on the high end of average, with some jitters, but only enough to make you enjoy it.
KICK (DURATION)—8
Three and a half hours, no crash—in part due to the fact that this (and other Xenergy drinks) are completely sugar free.
THE DRINK OVERALL—8.33
It might not be a personal favorite, but Tangerine Twister is a worthy edition to a repertoire of mostly excellent energy drinks. If you haven’t tried it yet, by all means give it a shot—with Xenergy, there’s always a chance that you’ll find yourself a new favorite.
