VoJo Energy Mints
I’m seeing energy mints with an increasing regularity, and now that my day job requires me to wake up at 5:30 every day, I no longer pretend to NOT be a chronic caffeine junky. This sleepy soul would try anything to get going in the morning; if Red Bull started marketing an intravenously delivered product line, I’d be lining up to get my fix.
Jolt Energy Mints have been my favorite thus far. They work, taste great, freshen up my ‘coffee breath,’ and come in a cool package. Ice Breakers Energy does all of the above, just not quite as well, but they’re not missing by much. And what they lack, they make up for in simple availability.
VoJo Energy Mints seem even more toned down to me, don’t taste quite as good, and the packaging seems cheap. Cheap! That is this product’s strongest asset, it can be had for 5 quarters. Jolt’s can’t even be purchased in a large chain store, and Ice Breakers can be a bit pricey. VoJo’s can be bought at any Wal-Mart. Tell me where the heck you’re going to go where you wont be ten minutes away from a Wally World!
Each mint carries with it 10 mg of caffeine. So it’d take about 8 of them to equal the potency of an 8 ounce sparkling energy enhancing beverage. So, you can do the math; these are much better suited to maintain your coffee buzz, rather than getting you all jazzed up in the first place. Sugar free, caloric values aren’t even worth mentioning.
Overall, I recommend these. In fact, I recommend buying stock in their company; I will keep them in business all by my lonesome until I get fired!

I like how products are rated depending on their most effective position in the coffee buzz continuum.

Thank you! I don’t see any other sites doing that; maybe it be one of my ‘things?’
