Lemons on the chain with the V-cuts
Xyience Xtreme Lemon Blast
You know what is better than regular Xyience energy drink? Xyience Xtreme energy drink. At least I hope so. I mean take an already strong contender and juice it up and you have to expect good things.
Packaging: You know the shiny silver cans Xyience uses for there regular drinks is fine but these slick black cans for Xyience Xtreme are even better. I love the barcode, the UFC logo, and the colored circle logos in the middle. This is one of the most polished looking drinks I have seen in a regular 16 oz can. Grade A-
Slogan: “Xtreme science for your active lifestyle” is right on the can. Not really catchy or cool but I think it fits well with the packaging and athletic aspect of the drink. Grade B
Taste: Ok so when I pop the top I am greeted with a nice lemon scent. Pouring some in a cup I am surprised when it comes out a pale pink color. It looks pretty refreshing with a mid to low carbonation level. Taking a sip I get it right away. Pink Lemonade! It is a smooth lemon flavor that is not overly tart or acidic. The level of sweetness is on the lower side and really it makes for a sugar free drink that tastes more natural than most sugar free drinks. This is a very thirst quenching drink and when it is ice cold it is very tasty. Grade B
Kick/Ingredients: Well after chugging this bad boy down it hit me hard. It was like that kick BJ Penn gave to Diego Sanchez head in UFC 107. I was full on buzzing with energy. I was in a great mood and really felt the need to move about and do stuff. My motivation was up and I really got a lot done. I had this major butt kickin buzz going on for a solid 4 to 5 hours before it finally tapped out. The ingredients in Xyience Xtreme are stronger than regular Xyience and include Caffeine at 250mg or more, Taurine, Ginseng, Guarana, Inositol, Glucuronolactone, L-Carnitine , and some really good B vitamin levels. DV. There are 0 calories, 2 grams of carbs, and no sugar. It is sweetened with sucralose and Ace K. Grade B+
Web Presence: Like I said in my X shot review the site at xyience.com is top notch. You will find plenty of product info, tons of MMA and UFC info, a store, events, and more. Really this is one of the better sites I have seen in a while. This is a site you need to check out for sure. Grade A
Recap:
Ok so this drink is like regular Xyience on steroids. It is pumped up full of rage and ready to kick some butt. It comes in a super sharp can and taste pretty damn good (if you like pink lemonade). I think this is a drink company that has turned the corner. Many thought the brand was down for the count. It was not though. It seems it was off training and improving and is back to be a serious contender. Step into the cage with this one if you are not scared.
