Should let the kids get a hold of these .

Got a couple myself but havent got a clue when to drink them ,

Caffeine is a stimulant, but alcohol is a depressant. Why would anyone drink that?

Same reason why people drink vodka red bull?

That's why don't know when to drink it , was a bit of an impulse buy.

Where did you buy it? I'm a sucker for trying a new drink at least once.

Would be perfect for Friday night when I'm hosting a home poker game, looking to get tipsy but also stay awake all night.

Oh, how times change. 49p a bottle or three for a quid.

I think once kids realised they weren't energy drinks and they were being tricked into drinking something good for them (or at least less worse than what kids normally drink) the novelty wore off haha.

Well, that or it's a firesale of stock that goes off tomorrow.

If I ever get that time machine there's now an alternative to buying loads of bitcoin

Did you try it? 3 bottles for a quid is cheap even for water.

I spy a Heron. They're doing trays of 12 bottles (single flavour) for £3 here as well. We've just bought trays of six different flavours to hand out as a component of birthday party treat bags for our daughter's birthday. She thinks she's the queen of the school... Madness, but whatever makes them happy I suppose (within reason!).

Ksi and Paul logan don't care. I they got there money worth

cheaper to buy a bottle of vitamins and flavour your own water.

I bet it tastes like diluted coolaid

Scuzi · Saturday at 21:15

@Feek I’m reliably told that “Prime is basic now, bruv”.

I see the latest trend is Prime branded vape flavours. I saw a grown man-child with it recently.

Saw a few flavours for 31p in Tesco earlier this year.

Dreadi · Saturday at 23:11

I saw a tiktok (don't hurt me) by some PT guy who is apparently semi well known saying that prime is crap because there's very little salt, no sugar and loads of potassium, this making it terrible for dehydration....never tried the stuff myself but for 30p, if I can find a bottle I'll give it ago as that's cheaper that most things on the shelves these days

Rob_B · Saturday at 23:30

For 30p I'll try it, but not going out if my way to. I'll stick with regular healthy drinks like Redbull or Cherry Pepsi Max.

MatsyLR · Saturday at 23:34

Isn't it just badly flavoured water?
Its not even good for hydration like poweraid (I don't drink any of the stuff)

Kelt · Sunday at 00:18

When I go out biking, I use a wonderful hydration drink.

Water, you heard it here first.

It was never about that, it was about Logan Paul and KSI.
Kids would have drank urine at that time and claimed it tasted nice.
At it's peak I was unfortunate to try all the different flavours because of my nephews and nieces and the drinks were all horrible.

It was a bit of column A a bit of column B

Logan Paul and KSI released an energy drink with crazy amounts of energy drink stuff but also released a sports drink at the same time with the same name/branding so a lot of kids thought they were buying a cool super-Monster when they were actually buying glorified flavoured water.
