Advocare Spark Energy Drink Review

advocare-sparkHave you ever been to an electronics store and found a great deal on men’s cologne?

No?  Well how about a two-for-one deal at a car lot, have you seen one?  I wish.

What about a farmer’s market?  Ever been to one and found an incredible energy drink product you’ve never seen before?  No?  Well nah nah in your face I have!

This summer I took a trip to the local farmer’s market with my mom, my greatest excitement being the possibility of finding a flawless eggplant to complete my cornucopia crafting project.  Sarcasm.  Anywho, I walked by a table where a nice lady was selling Advocare performance products.

This table just reeked of multi-level marketing, but I couldn’t resist inquiring about the “Spark” energy drink powder packets.  Without even telling the saleswoman about my status as an EF writer, she grabbed a bottle of water, filled it with a whole packet of Spark, and let me continue on my way while I drank the bottle down.  < 20 minutes: holy organic cucumbers Batman!

Taste

I later bought three flavors of my own Spark packets: grape, fruit punch, and mandarin orange.  They also offer citrus and cherry.  All you need is a cold bottle of water,  one of these packets mixed into it, and it will plaster a smile onto your lethargic face.  The experience was better than I could have even expected, especially after E-Boost set my standards so low.  Not one stage of the show can be categorized as bitter, transparent, overly sweet, or overly tart.  Delish!

Ingredients

/begin list/ 120mg caffeine, 750% B12, 750% B6, 300% niacin, GABA /end list/

Effect

No matter how you consume a packet of Spark, whether it be straight, snorted, mixed into your Easy Mac flavor packet, or… oh ya mixed into water, you are guaranteed the perfect long-lasting energy boost.  No joking around here, these packets are simply the perfect pick me up.  This will be my first product review where I end up purchasing more of what I sampled.

Verdict

Advocare Spark changed my energy drink life.  I can now truthfully say that given the immediate availability of a Spark packet, I would choose a bottle of water from a cooler instead a stand-by favorite energy drink.  That’s right, a flavored bottle of water over, say, a NOS or Rockstar Punched Citrus.  Up until Spark, that’d just be crazy talk.

my curiosity is peaked. any chances it’s in a store or am i going to have to start crashing farmers markets to find these suckers? (keep in mind i’m wary of ordering product online without having at least a sample of it first)

lol Great review. Now I want to try this so bad.

Glad you guys like the review :)

Problem with this product is that it’s not sold in stores. As I hinted at in the post, there’s a bit of multi-level marketing fun going on with the company. Ordinary citizens must first buy Advocare products before they can then sell them. So, to get some you must become an Advocare salesperson and buy product in bulk, or find someone who already has done so.

Maybe you can get lucky with their “contact a distributor” feature on the website?

You can order right from the website and they sell it in canisters too! Mix up a gallon and take it to your friend’s kid’s birthday party, sit back and watch the fun!
Seriously though, looks like they sell some kind of shot too.

Dusty August 31st, 2009 12:21 pm

Yep, the have a shot called Slam. I have one but haven’t tried it yet

I am a distributor for the company. I personally use the Advocare products and have seen great results. I have a lot more energy and have lost 40lbs since Memorial Day.

I too was wary about ordering, but taking on the products was probably the best thing I have done in awhile. The company is based in Texas and was founded in 1993. I attended their event “Success School” this summer and the company is truly amazing.

As for the products, they really work. True, you have to get them through a distributor and if you do not know one, there is a find a distributor link on Advocares site.

Thanks

A friend turned me onto Spark about 3 years ago. As a wedding photographer I like having energy on wedding day.

I was drinking redbull , Nos or 5 Hour energy. At $2.50 or more a serving it adds up.

Spark is closest to 5 hour energy, you are more alert. The main thing is it is less than half the price when purchased in the tub.
