Jolt Orange Blast
Jolt Orange Blast is a play on your everyday orange soda, and it pulls the flavor off quite well. Not overly sweet like a lot of beverages in that category, but not too tangy either. It knocked off Rip It’s Citrus X as my favorite orange flavored energy drink, easily.
There’s a touch of bitterness from the caffeine and other energy enhancing chemicals. Not enough to hurt the drink all that badly, but it is noticeable. That’s the only blight in the area of flavor, and it’s not all that bad.
I did sit down and drink the whole can at once, and I was most certainly charged up when I was finished. I believe there are something like 300 mgs of caffeine per can, and 3,000 mg of taurine. That will have you chasing your tail if you are not careful. Those are not official numbers though, so don’t hold them against me one way or the other. The can is 316 calories though, which isn’t horrible for 23+ ounces. Could definitely be worse.
‘Blue Raspberry‘ is still my favorite Jolt Energy Drink, but ‘Orange Blast’ is a solid number two. I feel safe recommending it, assuming of course that you enjoy orange sodas. Enjoy!
