Manufacturer's Brand Overview: [Edit]
A decade ago, Ajinomoto sports scientists set out to create an advanced sports performance supplement that would safely and effectively deliver all the energizing, restorative and fitness-enhancing power of amino acid. The end result of their efforts is Amino Vital , the first sports performance supplement formulated with precisely the right combination of amino acids your body needs for greater fitness and higher performance. This delicious, pre-mixed sports drink contains branched-chain amino acids and arginine for ideal hydration and energy to go during workouts or for refreshment and recovery after a challenging day. Now available in refreshing orange and lemon lime flavors, ready to drink anywhere you want to quench your thirst for amino power.

BevNET Review:
Amino Vital is introducing a new level of nutritional science to sports drink enthusiasts. While typical sport drinks contain electrolytes for hydration, Amino Vital also includes amino acids. The drink contains Branched-Chain Amino Acids (BCAAs) "for energy and repair" and argine "for overall health and wellbeing." The brand is "Official Amino Acid Supplement Drink of the US Triathalon". Like its Lemon-Lime cousin, Orange is non-carbonated and contains no caffeine. The orange flavor is very light and beverage has only a slight aftertaste from its supplemental aspartame sweeter (manufactured by Ajinomoto). We think the orange flavor could be strengthened a bit, but this is still a solid product.

Lemon Lime

BevNET Review:
Amino Vital is a new sports drink from Japanese ingredient manufacturer Ajinomoto. The drink includes supplemental amounts of 4 amino acids which the product claims "contribute most to sports performance and long-term conditioning". New Yorkers may very well have run across Amino Vital as the drink is the "Official Amino Acid Supplement Drink" of the Yankees. While we have little basis to evaluate the drink's impact on sports performance, we can say that is has a pleasant lemon-lime flavor and little to no aftertaste from its aspartame-supplemented sweetening. Overall, this a cleanly branded product that should appeal to athletes.
