BevNET Review: The first of Xyience's two energy drinks is Cran Razz, a zero calorie energy drink sweetened acesulfame potassium and sucralose. The flavor is enjoyable, with a nice balance of refreshment and functional flavors. Cran Razz's fruit flavor is, however, a bit light, and it's not sweet enough to hide the artificial sweetener finish. Overall, it's a drinkable formula that could use a little bit of improvement in its flavor/sweetener levels. As for the can, the standard 16-ounce can is dressed relatively well, with a bright red circle in the center of the can that immediately tells you what flavor this product uses. We don’t understand the use of the Japanese characters, especially since they seem to visually conflict with Xyience's barcode logo. Still, this product is one of the best energy drinks that we've ever seen produced by a supplement company and we feel that it has found a happy medium of functionality without appearing pharmaceutical in nature. Improvements in flavor would push this product over 4 stars.

Great energy drink that not only gets you going but helps you focus in the right direction. I'm not a doctor but my friends have taken Aderall and compair the effects as similar.

Very Refreshing
5 stars5 stars5 stars5 stars5 stars

I've had alot of energy drinks and although it's not All Organic like one of my all time favorite drinks Syzmo, it's actually very refreshing and tastes like how you would think Cran/Razz tastes. It goes down crisp and clean, has a good aftertaste and gives you a nice kick in the pants. I prefer drinks with calories, but for a zero cal drink, this one is tops. I mainly got it to see how it tasted after always seeing the UFC fighters drink them. Their protein drink was one of the worst I've ever had and I was scared to even try this. I was pleasantly surprised.

Xenergy Cran Raz

I tasted this Drink today for the first time and liked it a lot. I think it has potential for people who like to mix vodka and cranberry juice and can now get the added energy drink buzz. Contents look robust too for an energy drink.

great taste and lots of energy boost
5 stars5 stars5 stars5 stars5 stars

I like the taste of Cran-Razz a lot. Most of the energy drinks in the market have the acquired taste, you will have to drink a number of them to start liking it, and after every sip, I have the squint in my face, but with this xenergy cran/Razz, I don't have that squinty face and I like the taste on the first sip, after a sec or two, it gives me another feeling of satisfaction that I feel that I am drinking something that is of class. Please make sure you drink it chilled or with ice. I don't like the taste when it is not fridge cold, just like any other drink. Energy wise, it gives me a great boost for many hours. I had the energy to drive for 6 1/2 hours straight and I normally would be sleeping on the wheels.

I loved them both, but my favorite between the two was Clear. Not surprising my wife likes the Cran/Raz better.

Long Lasting Energy

I recently had the opportunity to try this new drink and it tasted great. It wasn't too sweet or too carbonated. Plus, it gave me energy for hours and I was hard at work doing exhausting manual labor. I give it 5 stars!
