Battery Energy Drink
It’s not often I get the chance to review a drink from a place as cool as Scandinavia. With tales of viking conquest and the some of the highest human development ratings in the world, I got to wonder what they use to keep themselves productive and alert… and I may have the answer in my hand.
I’m holding a can of Battery Energy Drink, originally from the land of Finland. Presenting itself in a stubby, polarized can, I’m wondering if Battery will leave me feeling positive, or perhaps negative?
Flavor
Battery has a very tart, electrifying flavor with a subtly sweet after taste similar to candy like Rockets. It has a liberal amount of carbonation, but isn’t too heavy, so you could down this fairly quick and it would taste alright. Containing regular sugar, there’s no artificial sweeteners that add any weird tastes. It isn’t anything amazing, though, as many other drinks on the market feature a similar taste. It would benefit from being a bit sweeter.
Ingredients
This can encapsulates 105.6mg of caffeine (32mg/L), and concentrations of taurine, B6, B12 that are a fairly common elixir in the modern energy drink. With a little more caffeine kick than most drinks in its size (11oz/330ml), I’m speculating that this could be an excellent balance of a satisfactory drink and a pick-me-up.
Energy
Battery was just right to get me out of my mid-day slump and back into gear as I navigated through my books. Stimulating me enough to rise above the waning effects of my previous drink that day, Battery came through with an electrifying jolt of positive energy. I seemed to be in a better mood because of Battery’s “charge”!
This amplifying drink from Finland was certainly a positive mix of soda-like consistency, tart taste, and the charge I needed to break into the books. Battery definitely has potential and with a bit of added sweetness, it could rise above in the saturated energy drink market.
