The last time I drank Redbull and Vodka, pre-Atkins, it wasnt a pretty sight.

I ended up falling out of my GFs truck and knocked my head on the ground... and took a shower that I couldnt remember taking.



That was the one and only time I drank Redbull and Vodka..

Avengeance.....
How many red bulls and vodka's did you have to give you that effect or do you remember? I'm sure you did remember the feeling the next day. Ha Just had to ask!

Thanks for the info. re: Diet Rockstar. I will try this prior to working out. I feel like I need a boost to get me back on the treadmill, since I am out of shape.

By the way, how much caffeine does the stuff contain?

If you can find it, XS energy drink is zero carbs, sweetened with sucralose. It comes in two flavors, Cran-Grape and Citrus. They're quite tasty.

Thanks!

Can you get the XS drink at the grocery store or do you have to go to a health food store?

Kroger does not have Diet Rockstar. Maybe it's at health food stores or GNC?

Anyone know where to buy it

I tried to go to the website to see how much caffeine it contained but it did not give any info. I love energy drinks. Lord knows I need all the energy I can get. my favorite used to be red bull and Jager. so good but so bad.

BTW you can buy the diet rockstar online at their website. www.rockstar69.com

Default Hansens Diet Red energy drink

Has anyone heard of or tasted Hansens Diet Red Energy Drink? I have tried it and it taste great. Only prob is its kind of a hard drink to track down in stores. It does not contain aspartame and is sweetened with splenda. It has caffeine and glucose along with other ingredients in the energy blend. Is anyone familiar with this drink, and are we allowed to drink drinks with glucose? It has a total of 3000mg of a combined energy formula and one of the ingredients is glucose.

Also, where can we find Sobe Lean drinks in the Bay Area, CA.

Default HUH?

Did you guys read the label on SF Red Bull? It contains aspartame. I thought thats not allowed. I tried the Diet Rock Star and it tasted just AWEFUL like piss water. But thats IMHO. There is an energy drink called Hansens Diet Red. This stuff taste awesome. It contains energy blend of caffeine, glucose, and some other stuff. Total of the energy blend is 3000mg. The label says it has 3 grams of carbs per serving which is one can. Oh, and BTW, it does NOT contain aspartame, and is sweetened with sucralose. Only thing, I'm not sure if we are supposed to have a drink with glucose in it? And it only has 3 grams of carbs so even so, wouldn't it still be allowed as long as we dont go over our carb count for the day?

Question Hansens Diet Red energy drink

Has anyone tried this? Hansens Diet Red. It taste just like Red Bull IMO. It has NO ASPARTAME!! The stats are:

Calories= 10
Total Carb=3g
Sugars=3g

It has an energy blend of: 2500mg

L-Carnitine, Glucose, Caffeine, Guarana, Inositol, Glucuronalactone, Maltodextrin.

Ingredients: Carbonated water, Glucose, Taurine, Natural Flavors, Citric Acid, sodium citrate, L-Carnitine, Maltodextrin, Panax ginseng root extract, Grape skin extract (color) ascorbic acid, Sucralose (Splenda), Acesulfame potassium, Caffeine, Niacinamide, Sodium chloride, Guarana seed extract, Inositol, Glucuronalactone, Pyridoxine hydrochloride, Riboflavin, Cyanocofalamin.

Does anyone know if this is acceptable for low carbers? I'm not sure about the "glucose", although it only has 2500mg blend and thats one of the ingredients, so that equals only 2.5 carbs right? Does anyone know if this can cause a stall?

Thank You

Yeah, but if you look at the nutrition facts, it says only 3 grams of carbs.
