2008 EXPO: New Energy Drinks
If you’ve been wondering what new energy drinks are slated to hit the market you probably should have headed to the 2008 Beverage Expo located in Boston, MA last week.
The overall theme definitely should have been “The Year of the Organic”, as almost every company had some wonderful all natural drink straight from the depths of the rain forest.
Well, since most of you probably missed it, here are some of the new energy drinks you could see soon in a store near you.
Adina
A new coffee based energy drink

From Everlast Nutrition, this is a 2 oz. energy shot packed with CoQ10, Green Tea and Grape Seed Extract, currently available in Berry Rush. Citrus Rush is in production along with a line of RTD energy drinks.

very interesting i’ll have to keep my eyes out for some of the new stuff
I just tried that new red bull natural cola. it was disgusting. stop nature from invadijng our energy drinks. i want mine full of chemicals.
i love the taste and effects of natural drinks like Guru and Brain Toniq, but nothing will ever beat the amazing taste of red bull
My personal favorite is the Howling Monkey cola… but I can’t seem to find it anywhere anymore. My local 7-11 stopped carrying it, unfortunately.
I had the opportunity to be at the EXPO this year. You’re right, so many new organic stuff out there! Which is great I think: everything is better organic! What caught my eye at the EXPO (and pleasantly surpised my taste buds) was Guru energy drink. They tasted like juices, and 4 out of 6 flavours were non-carbonated. I wasnt too fond of green tea and tangerine but loved the superfruit and lemonade…
a good reason to start drinking water ^^
