If you could create your own energy drink, what it would contains?

[Athanasios]

I like maca and unsweetened cocoa in a strong green tea that is sweetened with xylitol.

[Shepard]

Tyrosine
Caffeine
Glucoronolactone

That would be my preferred basic drink.

[fast turtle]

Honey sweetened green tea with 25mg phenmetrazine.

[caston]

D2O

[boily]

Not sure about my own recipe, but I sure know Red Bull works wonders. Caffeine, taurine, B vitamins and sugar. If I'm really lacking in energy I down one, and energy is restored. I would only drink about 5 or so each year.....

[Pablo M]

I haven't found anything that's as good as Yerba Mate. Love the stuff. Tyrosine makes me crazy, and I can't take those canned drinks with ludicrous amounts of caffeine.

Has anyone here tried coca tea? I was reading about it recently and it seems like it might be worth a shot. Link here:

I ordered coca tea but it got seize at the border (I live in Canada).

Phenmetrazine? Is this stuff legal? Where do you get that?

D2O? You mean, Heavy Water? Is this a kind of joke?

I haven't consumed a regular "soft drink" in years, but I confess to have had my fair share of over-priced, sucralose laiden Monster Lo-Carb and Sobe No Fear Sugar Free "energy drinks". Not for the energy mind you (although the SoBe's are at the top of the list for caffeine). I just love the taste. Especially the SoBe No Fear but they are too expensive (I guess its a good thing really). I beat myself up so much for buying one when I'm on the go that it hardly happens now.

For green tea I switched to instant green tea from TeaTech. It comes in a foil tube and I get the one already sweetened with Stevia. Its really the only way I can drink green tea now. 300mg polyphenols (100mg EGCG) with 40mg caffeine per serving. I take my 1G of taurine, an Activated B-complex, and 250mg of Yerba Mate with water first. Then sip down the tea as I start work each morning in the home office.

I drank lots of coca tea during my trip to Peru last year. The coca plant is prized, and rightfully so, for the stamina it can help you sustain at altitude. It doesn't make you "high" in any sense. Honestly, I didn't notice any effects even at 7-8 cups a day. Maybe it was preventing me from realizing the negative effects from going east coast (US) near sea level to 13k+ feet for a couple of weeks.

but I confess to have had my fair share of over-priced, sucralose laiden Monster Lo-Carb and Sobe No Fear Sugar Free "energy drinks"

I also drink these (maybe one a week) and they work quite well. I only buy them when they are on sale like 5.50 for a 4 pack, or 2 for 3.00. Is there any place to get them any cheaper? If I had to improve these I would do away with the artificial sweeteners and go with stevia. Also, maybe little less caffeine and replace it with a small amount of some other stimulant.

I also like Redline, but it is too expensive to buy very often.

[Athanasios]

Costco, but that is in BULK.

[Gerald W. Gaston]

Circle K often has a good deal on which ever ones they are trying move... if you have one of those near you. Here they have Monster on a 2-fer.

It's plenty legal on my south-pacific yacht. [thumb]

I laid on an "alternative" punch for the non-drinkers at one of my parties that was basically a sharp fruit combination (Grapefruit and Cranberry with a bit of smooth orange) with a large pack of guarana powder mixed in and a kilo of ice. Tasted like a sea breeze and certainly got things started but I was still getting rid of some of them at 4am!

I would put all my fruit extracts together (take away the capsules), so powered form of:
acai, goji, mangosteen, noni, pomegranate, blueberry and red rasberry and put in some rhodiola and gurana and B vitamins

Mix all that in blueberry pulp and pomegrante juice concentrate (for sweetness and a nice thick texture and purple colour) and you have yourself an energy drink! (would make for a cool punch at parties too)

Nice! That sounds best to me...

A couple changes for my tastes though - remove the pulp, and add at least a gram of taurine. Maybe I'm just old school.

I drink the So Be No Fears myself...I also like smoothies.

[shifter]

I used to just by a 400ml bottle of blueberry pulp and drink it like an ordinary drink... mmmmmm Its supposed to be for sauces or toppings but eating (well drinking) the equivalent of 1/2 kilo of blueberries in a matter of seconds seemed like a pretty good idea to me

However those pulps have been flash pasterised so I dont know if that negated all the good effects anyway. Still tasted good!

When you order directly from South America, the tea may not have all the paperwork to get in Canada or USA, custom policy, quality control, Expiration dates, ISO, DEA control, etc. The only place that you can get it legally in Canada and US is Amazon.com , just search for coca tea.
It will not be seized at the order because it is from a reputable vendor that has checked already the papers to aloud the product to be sold to the public.
Good Luck

I use to buy coca tea off the internet. However, I abused all things stimulant and now I cannot even have a little bit. And yes, you CAN get quite a high from this stuff. I use to drink it obsessively. It was active in the 45-60 gram range, a very beautiful "high" and a VERY quick crash. Anything in the stimulant variety now instantly gives me back aches, there is no point for me to take any stimulant.

Also, it is illegal and if you have any in your urine good luck explaining "it was a tea!"

Was this just unsweetened mashed blueberries?
