Hello everyone, this is energy crisis the energy drink
report
Yes indeed an energy drink review
probably for the last video that we're doing for 2019, which is
Insane. We're gonna do a little more of a casual type review today
And I want to try out an energy drink go back to our roots
Go back to the basic roots with the energy crisis series and it's always it's always funny how this is. I
Do these reviews, you know so seldom?
Right because so often I mean, you know how it is, right?
I do the videos with the food and I always go, you know running on empty
Which is always the name of the series, you know, it's running on empty
Which is the food review series and then I say food review
And obviously when I do the energy crisis videos, it's like yeah, this is the energy crisis series
But that's not it's got a little flair to it to the energy drink a report like that
I'm just trying to I don't know what I'm doing right now
but either way we got an energy drink review and yeah, we're gonna be finishing off the year with it, which
Again, it's crazy how it is during this
During New Year's
Crazy, I am I'm breaking out the the frock-coat though. I figured I want to go with a little more of like a
Formal attire if it's if it's possible and I figure well, I got my frock coat here
I don't think you could really see it all too. Well, but it is it's a it's a garment
I think the last time I wore it was for the
500,000 subscriber video back in 2017, but it's still it still fits. It's still in one piece
Thankfully it wasn't lost during the great spillage and in early 2018
Which maybe I just made up for dramatic effect, but either way on to the review
We're trying out a monster a monster energy drink those always do. Well I'm always monster is probably my you know, my favorite
I always like the monster drinks. I was a fan of them and
this is part of the
Let's say Monster Energy
Ultra paradise, you can see it's got the green can right there. It really does kind of stand out. It's a vibrant green
Can we get that again? Look at that? It's even reflecting off like it's got some supernatural power
Be careful don't look into that though. It'll do things to you
Trust me. You don't want to go there. So it's a it's a it's a place that no one should
Monster Energy ultra paradise. This is part of like the the zero ultra type of series and of course
It's the white can is the big popular one right for the boomers and all that stuff?
But this is kind of going along the lines
This is for the people who are elevated right you you've already been through the white can days now
You're at the Green can zero calories zero sugar
Nutrition Facts serving size eight fluid ounces two servings per container
zero calories zero fat
Zero grams of sugar zero grams of protein. So of course, you know, they're trying to be more through and you're health-conscious
You know, if you want to do the New Year's resolutions, you want to guzzle down this monster, you know
all is up to you does have
niacin vitamin b6 b12
Cetera some of the other ingredients I always go through the nutritional statistics here
Carbonated water citric acid Tarim sodium citrate potassium sorbate as a preservative
caffeine
Now, let's see what else if there's anything else worth mentioning
Here we go. Let's see what the caffeine is for this one
Monster Energy blend taurine caffeine Oh carnitine inositol caffeine from all sources
70 milligrams per 8 fluid ounces
140 milligrams per can. Alright, so it's not a ton of caffeine, but maybe enough to kind of get you going so, you know, it's
140 for this whole can I've seen more
But again, I think it'll definitely kind of start start you off. Anybody who are ill you only give you a boost
However, whatever your tolerance is really
And here's the best part
The little inscription right here. So let's let's clear my throat so it'll be in good reading today
Um, there we go, all right, here's what they have to say
Where is paradise a
chalet on the slopes a
streamside ranch or a
penthouse in the city
How about private island with a white sand beach?
turquoise water and a gentle tropical breeze
monster ultra paradise pure crisp
invigorating island flavors kick back and enjoy
Paradise is wherever you can find it
unleash the ultra beast
Monster energy calm and then all the various media is right there
So this one's getting a little a little introspective, you know
Some of them are kind of in-your-face to like this is the best. So this is the this is what it is. This is the
You know the thing
This one is kind of the making you think is taking the philosophical outlook
Well, what is paradise and that's why I think this is the perfect drink for the new year
When when of course the decade now, we're gonna be in the 2020s
It's gonna be a new decade right as the calendar shifts were entering into 2020
We kind of get a little a little retrospective or looking back at the last year. Maybe the last 10 years
What's happened? What we accomplished what we weren't able to our successes our failures
what we have planned for the future and
This is perfect for it
What is paradise is paradise a real place? Where is paradise merely a state of mind, but they claim. Hey, do you drink this?
It'll taste good and maybe it'll get you there. Maybe it won't
So either way we'll find out what it tastes like
There we go
Wonder if it's gonna be green in color what its gonna be like, let's pour this out
we're gonna go with via the pilsner glass today arcing back to my
Fifth fourth video. I was calling at the doser glass, but it is a pilsner
with a P
Wow look at that again, isn't that something?
Look at that. It's kind of it's it's kind of green
it's like a
Not quite totally green well isn't isn't that something look at that look at that
That's something it's always it's always so cool whenever I I do these and you get to see them in these exotic colors there
There I am you can see my eye whoo looking at you right there
Yeah, look at that. It's kind of like a it's like a green. It's like a
Bit of a Bluegreen maybe a turquoise green
carbonated though and
How about we give it a yeah, give it a try. I always like it when it's in these exotic colors
Alright, so it is monster energy ultra paradise going in wishing everyone of you a happy and healthy new year
Hmm no, it's not bad at all. I
Think monster I
Remember saying this when I tried out the zero ultra a couple
couple weeks back or however long ago it was it sort of feels like anyway, I
Remember I said
When I first tried it
Back in 2013. Oh, I hated it
I I it filled me with disgust it wasn't that bad
But you know, they got their act together and maybe it's just an acquired taste
but I really think that did change the recipe and it was a lot better and
This is good. I'm a fan of this too
For something that has zero sugar zero calories
We've read off all the the statistics there, right you you know that there's not a lot in it. They still find a way
to make it taste good and
in doing so
It just doesn't taste like it's full of this, you know, artificial sweetener or all this synthetic stuff
Which I mean, you know, it is there's no there's no lying about that
Nothing to be ashamed of with that either
But the fact that they're able to cover that up and not make it seem so thin it's synthetic
But it still has a sweetness. It doesn't have this tart flavor nor does it taste, you know unnatural or weird like to chemic?
Chemically, you know doesn't impose chemical synthetic taste they make it really tasty
It's of course carbonated but it's like it's refreshing. This is a refreshing drink
But it can be taken at any time of year
I mean here we're we're in the midst of winter right now the midst of of winter, but we're still drinking this down
I see this more like a tropical type of beverage, but it's good for any time of year
Um, but it's got this sweetness then it's got this Pleasant
It's like this fruity type of taste but to prevail interestingly enough though
they kind of make it seem like it's ultra paradise to make you think that it's maybe gonna be like, um,
whatever
Pineapple, you know that type of flavor I taste a distinct
almost green apple type of flavor in there
And it's as fascinating. That is the most pronounced flavor. I would say easily
Maybe that's their kind of gone with like the green color here
Yeah, there's that sweetness
There's like this green apple flavor
that's very distinct and
Then after that is like this other little like fruity tropical type of blend
I wouldn't go out of the bat though and say that this is a tropical, you know tropical fruit flavored beverage
Because again, I taste that green apple thirst and then some you know, just like a fruit blend maybe
So that's what it comes down to but overall very very interesting. I'm like it. I've never had it before
I think it's a new release a fairly new. Anyway, it was released in 2019 and
Yeah, I mean I think for what it is. It's definitely good definitely good
I would say it's a buy I got this for around it was a dollar ninety-nine or so at the at the supermarket
And yeah
I'm a fan of it tastes good and I think monster they really got their act together
With these zero calories zero sugar type of beverages. I think they're just whatever they did whatever changes they made
However, they redid the blend. I think did a good job
And I think this is just another good one. I think it's tasty. It's flavorful
Monster you guys did a good job. They're four out of ten
I'm gonna give it a straight eight out of ten eight point zero flat out of ten
I think it's a deserving drink of it
I really don't have anything to criticize it on and again the caffeine content could have a little more but I know people have their
Sensitivities to it. That's completely understandable
And again, I think it'll still get you going no matter what
Alright, so with that this is energy crisis the energy drink report. I'm your host the report of the week
Probably the final review. I'm gonna be doing for 2019 and it's just
Wow
Time flies, but it's just so crazy. But here we are at a new year
And with that I can proudly say I think 2020 is gonna be a good year
I think it's gonna be a big year and
I know we're gonna keep the videos down the reviews going into 2020 into this next a decade
I think it's gonna be a lot of fun. So bear with me
I think I can say I'll be seeing you next year. Thank you and do take care
I'm your host the report of the week. Have a happy new year
