Oh, I tried the recovery today. I wasn't too crazy about it, I'm not sure if it was the bitterness of the lemon juice or the sucralose/ace-k.

Grab the cola first. It is pretty good. Don't expect a huge boost but the flavor is nice if you like pepsi. My fav Rockstar is the Zero Carb which is super liquid sweet tarts berry flavor and provides a good boost. You won't have to hide when drinking the Cola though because it looks so damn good

So, if I was thinking about jumping this mental hurdle and fighting my demons by actually trying a Rockstar, which one would be THE one to try? Cola? Mango?

That way I can go in the dark of night, quickly grab THE one off the shelf, and slip into a dark corner where no one can see me and that can, and try it.

Cola and Zero Carb sound interesting. I'll have to bite the bullet.

I'm drinking Recovery right now. It's really good. Just like drinking a country time lemonade. No word on how it's going to effect me energy wise or if I will indeed party like a Rockstar tonight.

I've been looking for the Cola around here, so far haven't found any.

I finally found the cola, and I have to say that it is the best looking Rockstar can ever. I even walked out of the 7-11 in broad daylight, can in hand.

It pretty much tastes like a cola. About halfway through there was a hint of bitterness, but if you like regular cola taste and want a boost, this isn't bad.

Damn I wanna try both..my favorite ED of all time still stands as Rockstar Punched ..always been a fruit punch fan..and this is great and gives me a good energy boost always.

Over here in the Cincinnati market, Rockstar is a big seller. It was when Coke had it and since we have gotten it, it has blown up. I don't know about up there about how much Coke was pushing it but they didn't really push it down here. Since we took it over, we have pushed it hard and it has paid off.

Finally saw these locally (at Kroger's convenience store chain Loaf 'N Jug) a couple of days ago. Bought one of the Cola - thought it was pretty good, better than the old Rockstar Cola I remember from a few years ago.

I have both of them and I tried the Recovery one so far, not bad. I'm not a big lemonade fan but I liked it.

I'm going to try the Cola one next week. I love anything Cola so I think I'll like it.
