Red Bull intake...

Red Bull is too expensive.

The generics are way cheaper and just as good.

Just came back from the south of France and I was driving. I averaged approx 7 cans of red bull a day!

Ah that's the reason the French suck at driving..

I don't do energy drinks as they're horrible. Odd can of pop is as close as I get.

I used to have Maybe 4 cans of relentless and monster a week at uni just because they tasted so good and were on offer a lot. I swear I was addicted or something. I haven't had one since uni though (july 2012) so maybe not...

Some energy drinks are like drinking syrup, Red bull included, so I don't drink it. Don't really drink any fizzy crap anymore for that matter.

Some people do drink nothing but this stuff though. You quite often see large ladies with a bottle of coke in their hand.

I drink the cheap 35p energy drinks but I don't touch fizzy pop like coke etc.

if there is Tequila and Vodka around, Red Bull consumption goes up

LoL! So did I. Thought it was some new air duct when it said intake.

I've never had a red bull
I've only had about 10 energy drinks in my life

Nor have I or Monster Energy. Though I am curious what they taste like but I'll probably never taste them.

My favourite drink though was always Lucozade Orange, Sport in the summer. That stuff is just so refreshing. I haven't had Lucozade in a long time. The regular always reminds me of sick times during recovery.

As for Monster Energy, there's only one thing I love about it. The graphics. That is great looking graphics.

Very rarely and pretty much exclusively with vodka.

I will drink a monster if i have been working nights and have a 2 hour drive home.

krooton · 27 Jul 2013 at 21:12

5 a month tops, love tropical Relentless.

Lunatic Dreyfus · 27 Jul 2013 at 21:30

I did have one once but it didn't do anything, nor was I sure what it was supposed to do...

Then again I don't react to caffeine or sugar the way some people seem to.

Since that illicit dabble. None.

I had to have at least 7 a day as I was driving long distance. Needed the boost. Wouldn't touch the stuff otherwise.

VIPER258 · 27 Jul 2013 at 22:06

3-4 a month. Used to have more but trying to cut down.

Energy drinks and me don't go well, just one can of red bull/relentless/monster will make me shake and my heart race like crazy, shame really as I quite like the taste, especially monster.

Yep, dunno what the fascination is with youngsters mixing this drink with vodka & drinking it in large quantities most weekends. One track road to Cirrhosis of the liver & diabetes methinks.

If I want a pick me up in the morning I'll stick to a fresh coffee thanks.

although i only occasionally have one on a sunday morning if i CBA to make a proper coffee.

I've heard some people become really paranoid with this stuff...

LeeUK · 29 Jul 2013 at 02:56

I drink about 5-6 a day now.
