Last day of these....this morning, I'm having the #Voodoo flavor of #RAZEEnergy drinks.....and it's...#aight. A common thread throughout all these drinks, with the exception of the #SourGummyWorms flavor, is instead of having a #FakeChocolateFunk, they have a #FakeCreamyFunk, and this is no different. Here it kinda works though, because it tastes like a better version of a #Reign #OrangeDreamsicle. However, It's offputting. It's not like it's bad, but I won't lie when I said this whole line has been disappointing to a degree. No High Yays or Wows, but no Boos or Fuck Your Couches either. This one is....ok. Middle of the road #Yay. Ok, @razeenergy, these are your 4 drinks you wanted to introduce people to your line with. Are the other flavors better or worse? I don't know, but...whatever. I'm just here to help you find which thing works the best for you. I wouldn't go out of the way to get any of these, but I wouldn't turn any of them down, either...well, maybe the #GalaxyBurst one. Bleh. #SwoggleSamples https://www.instagram.com/p/CC0fjqvp5Dh/?igshid=1c8jfwmqy1tck

Ooohhh, I picked a couple @bangenergy flavors I haven't tried yet; one apparently new for today, and one that apparently hasn't been seen in a while for tomorrow. Today, I'm drinking #Champagne flavor from #BangEnergy. Ughhh....look, I don't know on which planet #Banana flavored #BubbleGum constitutes a champagne flavor, but Bang's weak link is that this is Earth. Nope....nope, not digging it. Will finish it though, and no traces of the dreaded #FakeChocolateFunk, so it will get a #Meh instead of a boo, but I definitely won't purchase this again. #SwoggleSamples https://www.instagram.com/p/CBNmiyAJv1X/?igshid=1n64vjfyw8mnv

This morning, I'm drinking the #BerryBlast flavor of the #QuakeEnergy drinks....bleh. The #FakeChocolateFunk in this can is abundant AF. I'll finish it, but I definitely won't be happy about it #Boo for sure. #SwoggleSamples https://www.instagram.com/p/B-PF20JDjJc/?igshid=1272o7gd4u0l4

Ok, finally came across 2 of these at Target...this morning, I'm trying my first of a new #Rockstar line of ripoffs straight from the #ReignBangTrain, this is the #Thermogenic #NeonBlast flavor from their new #Thermo line, which the only difference between this and the #XDurance line is that this one is more chock full of #BCAAAminos, which means jack shit to me, since I don't use these for a workout regiment. It has #GreenTeaExtract in it, which I can taste first and foremost, and it's a good flavor....and does it's part to attempt to cover up the abundance of #FakeChocolateFunk up in this bitch. Look...flavor isn't bad, but it's not super good either, it's obvious that this is a #SugarFree/#Diet drink, but whatever at this point. Would take if offered, but wouldn't seek on my own again. #LowYay. Also, the can print design is fucking awkward and non-appealing, but whatever. #SwoggleSamples @rockstarenergy https://www.instagram.com/p/B8teWGDJ_sk/?igshid=n10011ianjro

Alright, this morning, the last of the #Rockstar #XDurance line, that I'm aware of, this is #BlueRaz. I wasn't looking forward to this, because none of these new-style #Diet/#SugarFree/#Workout #EnergyDrinks have been able to not make #BlueRaspberry taste like shit yet, but #LoAndBehold, this doesn't taste like shit. No #FakeChocolateFunk, the blue raspberry itself is pleasant....like, it's not amazing or anything to write home about, as I'm doing now, I suppose....point I'm trying to make is that it doesn't taste like shit, and that's always a good thing. Middle of the road #Yay. #SwoggleSamples @rockstarenergy https://www.instagram.com/p/B8LxawIpaC2/?igshid=972gmuk7w5gs

....bleh....ok, this morning, I'm drinking the #Marshmallow flavor of the #Rockstar #XDurance #EnergyDrinks....oh my creator, this is #crap, just like I expected it to be. Who had the bright idea to make a marshmallow flavor for a line of #Diet/#SugarFree energy drinks? It does not work on any level. So many awkward and terrible chemical flavorings all over the place. Chock full of the #FakeChocolateFunk, and there's even the worst flavoring in my favorite drink in this line (#PeachPlusIcedTea) hiding in the aftertaste. Look, it's not the worst energy drink, it's not even the worst in this line....but it is by no means "good". It's bad, don't buy this, #HardBoo. #SwoggleSamples @rockstarenergy https://www.instagram.com/p/B8JMmJaJN1E/?igshid=1mbpkmrmpjf5p

Holy shit, I knew this one was gonna be bad, but fuck, man....ugh....so this morning, against my own better judgement, I am drinking the #CottonCandy flavor of #Rockstar #XDurance....it's like they dumped a shitload of generic ass #PancakeSyrup (not pure MAPLE syrup, mind you) into a tub of generic ass white #CakeFrosting, somehow turn it into #SugarFree vile bile, and hit you upside the head with that flavor out the gate, as the trailing flavor of #FakeChocolateFunk finishes the rest of this wretched experience. NO BUENO. This is too bad to just boo; the is getting a #FuckYourCouch. Stop with these fucking trash cotton candy flavors, energy drink companies! #SwoggleSamples @rockstarenergy https://www.instagram.com/p/B7LfiaxJqvP/?igshid=14kjtf5rnhui8

So, it looks like @rockstarenergy is trying to get on the #ReignBangTrain, and released a line of #300mgCaffeine #Diet/#SugarFree #EnergyDrinks called #Rockstar #XDurance. I picked up the 3 they had at Fry's, and this first one is #SuperSourGreenApple. I figured it would be a safe bet; the #SourApple flavor #ReignBodyFuel puts out, and the #SourHeads flavor that #BangEnergy put out are both pretty good...wish I could say the same for this one, because this ain't it, chief. It starts off ok, but that #aftertaste, tho....the #FakeChocolateFunk has run amok. The sour is heavy, but they also try to make the apple heavy, and it's gotta be one or the other in these #ZeroCalorie drinks, don't get greedy. This is no longer a fun experience, but now a chore...but a finishable chore, though. #Meh....low meh if that were a rating, but IS NAHT....just like this drink....is naht. #SwoggleSamples https://www.instagram.com/p/B7I0WLPBLwz/?igshid=14z4fvfo0xdwu

This #ChristmasEve morning, I'm having a #RazzleBerry flavored #ReignBodyFuel drink. My biggest fear was encountered in my first sip, as the #FakeChocolateFunk aftertaste pops up, but to be honest, it's barely there, and this is pretty decent. Middle of the road #Yay rating sounds fair. #SwoggleSamples @reignbodyfuel https://www.instagram.com/p/B6cySkcp8ga/?igshid=1jmlcurl0glnx

Now that I'm all out of #BangEnergy drinks to try, let's try some of the #ReignEnergy drinks right below them on the rack. #OrangeDreamsicle automatically popped out as being something different than what @bangenergy had. It's exactly what it describes....kinda. The first couple drinks were great, then I recognized the #FakeChocolateFunk that Bang has in some of its drinks. Still though, for #SugarFree, this isn't terrible and is kinda spot-hitting. Because of the funk, it gets a middle of the road #Yay from me. #SwoggleSamples @reign_energy https://www.instagram.com/p/B6AuY_pJ2No/?igshid=rb5azfvs1kdn

I was fearing this one because I was worried it might have the #FakeChocolateFunk flavor that has made me hate 3 other #BangEnergy drink flavors, and while this did have the smallest hint of the funk, the ONLY flavor that really comes to mind while drinking #BlackCherryVanilla is #SugarFree #CherryKoolAid. If you ever wanted a clear #Cherry #KoolAid that doesn't #RedStain TF out of your mouth, and don't mind that it's sugar free or has an unnoticeable hint of a flavor horribly posing as a vanilla, then this is the drink for you. Middle of the road #Yay for me....I'd rate it higher if it weren't for the #funk. #SwoggleSamples @bangenergy https://www.instagram.com/p/B5utIEVJomv/?igshid=1uu5bpd5816ib

This morning, I'm trying the #BlueRazz #BangEnergy drink...this is the 3rd flavor, after #BirthdayCakeBlast and #CottonCandy, to have a hint of #FakeChocolateFunk when #chocolate shouldn't even be a profile in the flavor at hand. Like, why is it there? Anywho, this flavor isn't nearly as bad as the other two, but that funk will be reason enough for me not to go for it again. It's not terrible, but it's not good really at all, it's #Meh. #SwoggleSamples @bangenergy https://www.instagram.com/p/B5m-gzcpt1e/?igshid=z3hck92qq5zk
