NOS Liquid Energy Shot Review
I’m scared…….
I have in my hand NOS Energy Shot, the most powerful caffeinated energy shot in all of the land (Southern Hemisphere that is….).
This shot has already sent several kids to their school nurse feeling dizzy and having heart palpitations. Oh well, you only live twice! Let’s see if NOS Liquid Energy Shot made by parent company, Demon Energy, truly is “The New Breed”.
Taste
Lemon-lime or Limon would sum this one up along with the super sweet artificial sweetener after taste. Not to mention, NOS has the typical bitter hit that most energy shots possess. It wasn’t horrible, but I wouldn’t sip it either. Down the bugger, quickly!
Ingredients
NOS Liquid Energy Shot may boast a “high octane” and “R-16″ warning, but it is there for caffeine alone, clocking in at 250mg. All of the other energy ingredients are pretty weak and did I mention besides caffeine there are only essentially 3? Taurine 500mg, Guarana 12mg, and B2 2mg. Sorry as in this department and for 4 dollars a shot, one would expect at least a full hit of B vitamins. Oh yeah, and the obvious being no NOS anywhere to be found.
Effect
Why was I scared? I don’t know….. Dizziness? Negative. Heart Palpitations? Negative. Nausea? Negative. Jitters? Negative.
I did feel that great caffeine feeling of my sinuses clearing along with a definite pick me up. However, it’s not over the top, but I must say impressive for a New Zealand product. I should note that I drank NOS on an empty stomach and after having two cups of coffee earlier.
Verdict
NOS Liguid Energy Shot is the highest caffeinated product on the market in New Zealand at least of the ones I’m aware of. They get around the caffeine restrictions by calling NOS a dietary supplement. Is it worth the $4 price? I don’t think so, but in the land of Middle Earth where choice is still a bit limited, you might want to give NOS a go.

250mg? I the ones in the U.S. have 125mg! So, I’m surprised to see that!
Fixx extreme is the highest I have found at a nice even 400mg per .17oz shot…that’s right, 0.17oz and 400mg to really let your head and heart produce a sonic boom.
Hey Even, Like I said in the review, it’s not the same company as NOS USA.
In the U.S. NOS shots are nothing special. My favorites here are Headshot and Rockstar shots.
