How do you get your energy?
I refuse to walk into school without a caffeinated beverage in my hand. My friends like to argue with me about which energy drink is the best. Many say Alani, Celsius, or Redbull, others say Monster, Kickstart, or some other energy drink. My personal favorite is Alani. I honestly hate any other energy drink. In my opinion, the fizziness in Celsius overpowers the flavor, Monsters don’t have enough flavor, and Redbull and Kickstart just taste weird. I hated Alani and made fun of my best friend for constantly drinking them. When she finally got me to try one, I became obsessed. If I don’t have an Alani before school, then there’s a high chance I will skip. Redbull is the most well-known energy drink overall. It contains 111 mg of caffeine and has 168 calories. Monster is the next well-known energy drink, containing 86 mg of caffeine and 101 calories. Kick-Start has 92 mg of caffeine and 40 calories. Celsius and Alani both only have 10 calories per serving and 200 mg of caffeine. Alanis will always be my favorite, but many people can say otherwise. So, which energy drink do you think is best?
I wanted to hear some other opinions, so we put a poll up for everyone to vote. Here are the results.
Alani– 38%
Celsius– 33%
Monster– 20%
Kick Start– 9%
I wasn’t surprised that Alani won because I saw plenty of people walking around with them all day. These results were very expected because most people I know would either choose Celsius or Alani. I wonder if we had included Red Bull if it would have changed the result, but we only had the chance to put four options. These are mainly results from high schoolers, but it makes you wonder what the results would be if this was a question for everybody overall. What is your favorite energy drink?
