Energy Drink Ratings Explained



Crave Energy Drink Review
I don't know about you guys but I have been hearing tons of news about the Crave Energy Drink. Why so much hype for this new drink? Well first off the Crave Energy Drink is a multi level marketing business so there are a lot of crave independent distributors out there trying to earn a living selling this stuff. That's right one packet is about $1.50 and you get two servings from it. Second, it is a cheap, healthier alternative to your normal every day sugar laden energy drink. Third it is really portable as it comes in a tiny .18 ounce packet that is ready (it only has 9 calories and 1 gram of sugar per serving) to mix into 8 ounces of water. Fourth, it is also supposed to be a fat burner. Now I don't know whether or not this is true. I am only going to try the one packet so there is no way of me finding scientific evidence that supports this claim. Fifth it is supposed to be all natural. I am sure I am missing a couple points about this beverage but I am pretty much just here to tell you how it performs in the taste and kick category. If you want more information on becoming a crave independent distributor, making money off of crave, or company information this might not be the site for you. So enough fluff and onto the review of the Crave Energy Drink.


Crave Energy Drink Review: Taste
So with all this fuss and hype, does the drink actually taste good? Well I followed the directions on the packet and poured roughly half of the packet into 8 ounces of bottled water. Now I have had experience with other ED's that you have to mix into water and they were not that pleasant as they usually did not mix well. However, after only a couple shakes of the water bottle, Crave quickly dissolved. This made me happy because I knew that in the middle of a drink I would not get any chunks of powder (like I did with A.C.T. Alright, back to the taste aspect. To sum it up the Crave Energy Drink has a smooth lime taste to it. There is no carbonation (unless you plan on mixing it with a carbonated beverage) and their is no bitter aftertaste. It actually tasted somewhat comparable to a Hi-C Ecto-Cooler except without all the sugary aftertaste. To sum up I was pretty pleased. I was expecting no taste and a clumpy mix and Crave delivered way better results. Taste Rating - 8.8


Crave Energy Drink Review: Kick
Alright the taste was way better than I was expecting, but how is the kick going to perform? Well from what I could gather from the packet the energy ingredients include caffeine, guarana, taurine, green tea, b-vitamins, hoodia and a **fat burning complex**. Now I have no idea what amount of each of these is actually in here, but I do know that caffeine and guarana are available in very potent powder forms. I also know that after drinking the packet I did feel a surge of energy. Now it was not an over the top kick like some of the 500 + milligram ED's that I have had, but it was noticeable and well sustained. I believe it lasted for about 2-3hours which is not bad at all, especially when you consider the value you are getting. $1.50 is the cost of a whole packet. So a half packet at roughly $0.38 got me 2-3 hours of energy. Take the whole packet at $1.50 and you should get roughly 4-5 hours of energy. Again, not bad for the price. Also, when you consider that there was no sugary crash, the value becomes even better. Kick Rating - 9.0 (more points based on value)


Crave Energy Drink Review: Final Judgment
After trying this drink I think I can shed some more light on all the hype I discussed in the opening paragraph. Yes, it's still a multi-level marketing business and sure some Crave independent distributors will make quite a bit of money (especially since they have a good product to sell). Second, it is cheap and it seems to be healthy as it only has one gram of sugar and nine calories. At $1.50 for two serving giving you about 4-5 hours of energy, it's a pretty good deal. Yes, it is portable. You could probably take 50 of these in place of one regular 16 ounce ED. The fourth aspect of being a fat burner I can not weigh in on as I only tried it once. However, it did seem to curb my appetite slightly. Fifth - it looks to be all natural, but I can't be precise on that factor either as I don't know what they are considering to be "all natural." It does have artificial coloring which does not seem to be natural to me, but I could be wrong (it has happened two other times now). So sure there was a lot of hype and a lot of promises made by this company, but it seems that they have lived up to most of them as far as I can tell. Final Judgment - 9.0
