After drinking the various brands of energy drinks available on the market for the past 2 years, I had to write an article about my experience with the 2 top energy drinks that I have ever had. I used to drink Red bull for many years. Recently, I have been drinking XS Energy and I was able to compare & contrast both brands.
In my opinion, Red Bull (the big name brand) & XS Energy (an amazingly fantastic brand not many may have heard of) are the best of in this category.
I enjoyed the XS brand more than Red Bull mostly for the nutritional content & effects it had on my performance during a typical day. The information here is what I obtained from the website of each brand. You can draw your own conclusion if you do the research as well.
XS Energy 12 oz. Cranberry-Grape
XS Energy 12 oz. Cranberry-Grape Blast boasts an array of B-vitamins, great taste, 0 grams of sugar, & can cost between $1.50 - $2.99 depending on the IBO you deal with (like myself), and is Kosher certified.
Red Bull Energy Drink
Red Bull has a decent taste, somewhat of a limited selection of flavors, a great amount of B-vitamins as well, can come in sugar-free (even though the sweeteners used amount to 10 calories, the sweeteners used include aspartame which I would not recommend), can vary in cost (if you shop around online you can probably find a good deal), & the caffeine in one can of Red Bull equals that of one cup of filtered coffee.
Overall
Overall, these 2 energy drink brands provide the necessary energy & vitamins needed to get the job done. I sway more toward the XS Energy side as it has the edge in nutritional content in my opinion as a certified personal trainer. Besides, I know that I can negotiate an amazing deal for the XS line of drinks. I liked this line so much that I started my own business selling this line of energy drinks along with other products. To me, it's the best-kept secret in the energy drink market!
