The Heat Is On
Heat ESP
Ok here we have a new drink called Heat E.S.P. The ESP stands for Energy, Stimulation, Performance. So this is an energy drink as will as a stimulant drink. I won’t go much into the stimulant(libido enhancement) part but still looking at the ingredients I have high hopes for this drink. Heat is an all natural drink with no artificial colors, sweeteners, or flavors.
Packaging: Heat is pretty unique here with a short 8 oz plastic bottle. The bottle is ribbed(for yours and her pleasure?) and has a resealable lid. It proclaims “All natural Stimulant” on the front and has a nice starburst pattern with a chick in the middle in a flame. It’s got a cool party vibe to it and is pretty unique. I give it a grade of C+ for packaging. Better than average but nothing eye popping.
Slogan: “Get You heat On” is the slogan and I think it works great with this drink. The slogan is drink specific, unique, and fits well with the whole stimulant vibe. Grade B
Taste: Twisting off the lid I get a nice light berry scent. Pouring some in a cup it comes out medium red color with no carbonation. I take a sip and it is a combo of apple, Raspberry, and a hint of Acai. It is very lightly sweetened and so it goes down easy and is pretty refreshing. It reminds me of a sweetened water type beverage like Hydrive. This drink will not leave you with that sugary mouth feel you get from so many energy drinks. It is light with no bitterness or after taste. I also tried it mixed with vodka and it went pretty well as long as you don’t add too much vodka. Try 1 shot vodka to ½ bottle Heat over ice and you will get a very smooth drink. Really it is weird but when mixed properly Heat seems to actually meld into a whole new experience. Overall this drink taste pretty good and gets a grade of B
Kick/ingredients. I tried this drink on several occasions and it really performed well. It kept the party going one night and got my day going good one morning. Each time I drank a bottle I got a super strong buzz going. It was not a jittery buzz but it was focused and powerful as well as mood enhancing. Really it put me in a great and energetic mood. The buzz lasted the usual 4 to 5 hours with no crash. As far as the “Stimulant” part it is hard to say. It would be to long and hard for me to go into here and would probably take all night! The ingredients are all natural and include Caffeine(from green tea and coffee bean) 90 mg, Yohimbine, Maca, Horny Goat Weed, L-Arginine ,Tyrosine, Taurine, and B Vitamins. It also has Acai and Pomegranate along with a good dose of vitamin C. It is sweetened with Stevia and crystalline Fructose. To top all that off it has apple and raspberry juice and comes with only 35 calories and 9 grams of carbs and sugars. Grade A- for kick/ingredients
Web presence: The website heatesp.com is not bad. It is pretty new so some sections are still under construction. It does have a really nice section on ingredients, a faq, a store, a mixer(bar) section, some interesting articles to read, and more. It’s east to navigate and looks pretty good as well. B for web presence. They also have a Nightclub type site at http://www.thenightlifedrink.com you might want to check out if interested in the mixer side of this drink.
Recap:
I have to say I was very impressed overall with Heat ESP. It really provided a quality potent buzz. It was a natural buzz for sure and I felt good about drinking it. For a natural drink it was not at all “Whole foods” tasting and it has no artificial sweeteners. To top it off it makes a damn good mixer for those of age. I think that it is a drink you might like to try. I would however suggest that you don’t drink it at work. Being stimulated and energetic at work could cause you some issues lol. Give Heat a try and let me know what you think.
