ABB Adrenalyn Shot

Can an energy drink make you happy? Not happy, like "Yay! I am drinking a tasty energy drink!" but happy like a glow all over and a lasting smile on your face? I am positive there are some foods out there with the properties to change a person's mood for the better. A good curry does it for me, and Mole' (a Mexican dish involving chicken, chocolate and chili) almost makes me giggle. I am a generally happy guy, but there is just something in there to make my life seem all for the better. Not to say I did no also get a nice rush out of this - because I really did - but because both times I tried this I was left in a much better mood tha the 10 seconds before slamming the bottle.

Buzz:9
Its not like it was the caffeine. It has a very decent 200mg in the 8 oz bottle, certainly enough to get done whatever you need doing. and yes, it does have a little thermogenic properties, which can give you a little shudder. But it is the other energy ingredients in here I like, and the mood altering makeup was really surprising.
Maybe it was the cinnamon in here, mixed with the Yohimbine and green and white tea. Maybe it was the Beta Alanine, L-Tyrosine, DL-Phenylalanine, L-Carnitine. There is only 200mg caffeine in here - less than in other ABB drinks. This is supposed to be a 2 serving bottle with 100mg caffeine each, but i is near impossible to just drink one serving. The buzz was decent, lasting about three or four hours, but my general lift lasted me almost all day.

Packaging:8
Like the size of most ABB drink shooters, this drink comes in 8.5 oz resealable plastic bottles. There are many things they got right with this design. The resealable cap is nice, in case you manage more self control and can actually have just one serving at a time. They do a fine job with the art, and list the total caffeine in the bottle too. Their little properties box informes you what you should be taking this for and how - which I find very helpful.

Taste:8
This is not as smooth as many of their other flavors, I imagine because of the concentrated nature of the drink. Not that is was bad in any way. Quite the opposite - I found it to be a very nice mixed berry flavor. The tart tang worked well with the berry, and had the hints of all the other ingredients in it. For all he different ingredients in here with strong flavors, I was impressed they managed to hide this all within a berry flavor. There is strong notes of tea, and while not spicy, you can definitely taste the cinnamon.
