BevNET Review
Using a reddish-orange color that's appetizing in appearance, we were definitely most attracted to the Ruby Orange flavor of Bomba. However, the "ruby-orange" name implies a taste that doesn't line up with the fruit punch-like flavor of the product. It's sweet and sugary with a mild caffeine aftertaste, which is nothing we haven't seen before -- aside from its grenade shaped glass bottle. Overall, it's a moderately refreshing experience. The available PET bottle comes with a convenient, re-sealable top, but it doesn't quite have the shock value of the glass container.
