The folks at XYIENCE were kind enough to send me some samples of their new energy drinks in the forms of canned beverages and pre-workout powder. I must admit I was a little weary. I was kind of expecting to receive mass marketed carbonated and super stimulated products. Instead I got great tasting drinks that weren’t carbonated or overly stimulated (the Pre-Workout Booster only has 60 mg of caffeine).
The XYIENCE Xenergy drink line does have some flavors that are carbonated (actually most are). Since I mentioned that I don’t do carbonated anything, I think I was kindly sent a case of the six non carbonated flavors – Xenergy + Lemonade, Xenergy + Hydration (which is also caffeine free), and Xenergy + Tea (my favorite). Each of these flavors comes in two sub varieties. All the drinks I tried tasted good and were sugar free. The Xenergy + Tea flavor was my favorite.
Two things struck out about the products I tried – they tasted good and the energy component of both the cans and the pre-workout was really smooth. I did not experience the jitters or the high irritability after consumption that I have associated with other energy drinks (especially those marketed in small bottles). I can’t speak for the carbonated flavors as I did not try them and am not the right person to review them as I stated, I don’t like carbonated products.
I would take either of the products I received as a mid afternoon pick me up or for a tasty hydration choice to water during a workout. I would be happy to see a cold can of Xenergy + Tea waiting for me in the festival area after a race.
