Heads Up

Just tried a new drink, goes by the name of 'DraGon Soop'. It is basically energy drink + flavors + BRIGHT colours + plenty of vodka.

Currently for sale at Bargain Booze stores (I know as I deliver it). Retails for a massive £2.99 a 500ml can, strength wise, it is 8% and 4units, per can.

I opened a can, after buying it...I blame the packaging...the liquid was BRIGHT blue (I had the blue one...duhh). It smelt like WKD, so didn't really smell good. Upon on tasting it, you can immediately tell this drink is laced with vodka, it hits you. It is very sweet, but contains tons of caffeine (35mg/100ml). That is more caffeine that some energy drinks.

I have also tried the green one, and needless to say, it is BRIGHT green. It tastes a lot better than the blue one, a lot less sweet, and more sour, akin to its name, Sour Apple.

Just thought I would let you know about these, they are nice, but profoundly expensive for what they actually are...

Is there a pink one?

Caffeine is bad for your skin

Nice. A product that contains a stimulant combined with a depressant.

Dont see that causing any problems

Well when it's such huge doses, but i'm sure in moderated amounts it's fine

It can cause acne breakouts and can dehydrate the skin

Bright blue?

*Proceeds to fill empty coke bottles and sell on as Nuka-Cola.

Alcopop meets Buckfast, just what's been missing from our streets on a Saturday night. Lovely.

8% cans are already pretty deadly... This sounds downright lethal, can you buy online?

I'm quite fond of caffeine (moar coffee), get through about 7 or 8 cups a day. It's more that I LOVE the taste of coffee than feel I need a perk (unless it's morning), but I don't like decafe. It's not the same. My skin's okay, never had any issues with acne or dehydration.

Think if you top up on water it's fine.

+ I'm still young so my skin's still springy.

I guess this must be it.

I bet it's dangerous.

"The number of units of alcohol per 500ml can (4 units) is clearly marked, so you can drink aware."

+ all the other crap in it :-O

It'll be brown. It's always brown.

Edit: 175mg of caffeine per can. Ouch.

Craig1981 · 31 Jul 2011 at 19:44

And I thought Vodka and red bull was bad for you...

Indeed, that's the stuff. Didn't know there was a 'Herbal Fusion' flavour, will have to keep a sharp eye out.

But this will be a hit with the younger drinkers I could imagine, only thing off putting is the £3 price tag per can...
