Vitaminenergy: dragonfruit 9

dragonfruit 9

Last Updated: 4/18/2007 8:28 AM

Product Type: Functional: Energy Drink: Regular; Container: 16 fl oz (473 ml) can
BevNET Review: Combining excellent flavor and attractive packaging, Dragonfruit 9 is another well executed flavor in the Vitaminenergy lineup. The crisp berry flavor is easy to drink from start to finish, with a well-balanced vitamin enriched taste that is extremely satisfying. And with 150mg of caffeine (naturally derived) per can, this stuff has some kick to it. You'll also find other standard energy ingredients, such as taurine and B vitamins, but otherwise, there's little in this drink that feels "standard" While we're not sure that this product is truly an evolutionary step for the category, we certainly believe that this product has the right stuff to catapult Glaceau into the upper tier of the energy drink category.

Better than Coffee, Monster, and much better than COKE or pepsi
4 stars4 stars4 stars4 stars4 stars

I tried about 80% of the energy drinks and sodas out there. When it comes to providing sustainable energy and a clear head for thinking on your feet as well as in a chair 8 hours a day it is one of the best. The Best drink that I came accross was lost due to the fact that the company got bought out and the new company stopped production of it. The drink was called "Freak" Yes it had a horrible advertising and no one probably even seen it in too many places but the formula that they put together was the best, but Vitamin Energy is the closest drink to it. Red bull sucks at so many levels, 1 price that little can is way too high and like so many other drinks like COKE, PEPSI, MONSTER, and so on.... are horrible for your health but yet they have a great advertising and marketing campagns. Most of those drinks are simply missing 2 most important ingrediants that the Freak and VitaminEnergy have. I will be dambed if I am going to let another great product slip through my fingers, even if it means I have to work 2 jobs to support this company and there superior product to all its so called competitors. P.S. I dont work Glaceau, I am a hard working Industrial computer technician that needs his energy and a clear mind.

Best VE Flavor

This drink satisfies start to finish. Smooth light flavor with a touch of sweet makes this one of the best energy drinks out there. Serve on ice, you won't be disappointed. Beware of Fruit Punch VE, horrible aftertaste.

Not too shabby

I'm not really big into energy drinks because they always taste horrible, but i really like vitamin water so thought when this popped on the shelves at my store that I'd try it. It tastes really good, but i can still taste the fact that its an energy drink, but not so much i didnt buy more. Biggest downfall for me atleast is that the 'buzz' from it rollarcoasters, I'll be hyper and bouncy awake for ten minutes, then start to crash for 15, then be bouncy again for another 10 mnutes. Its a real rough ride.

Dragonfruit Done Right
4 stars4 stars4 stars4 stars4 stars

Vitaminenergy's Dragonfruit 9 is a very good drink, though not perfect. It utilizes the d-fruit flavor well, and gives a sweet, powerful taste that is enjoyable. The scent is clean and the drink is presented well in the simple packaging. However, it has a slight aftertaste, nothing medicinal, just too sweet. I liked the clean taste, it just seems oversweetened at times. Of course, like the others, it is a premium drink that is sure to turn head. Just not as perfect as the others. Final Analysis: Unleash the Dragonfruit.
