Full Throttle Mother Energy Drink Has Arrived

The can actually reads “Full Throttle: Nature is one BAD Mother”.

The drink claims that ingredients are from “Natural Sources” – presumably this means caffeine is from Guarana.

Full Throttle is made by Coca-Cola, and… just to confuse things – Coca-cola have been pushing another energy drink in Australia called Mother. Mother has not been popular in Australia. Maybe they need to try selling Full Throttle instead?

I would be interested in anyone’s review of the drink.

    I’m actually drinking this stuff right now, i found it at a random gas station and decided to buy it, being a HUGE fan of original full throttle. To put it plainly, this stuff is HORRIBLE. it tastes like grass flavored water. with a hint of ashtray. Oh well, the can still looks cool.

    I too am drinking one right now. I don’t mind the taste. it is a little different but not bad in my opinion. ::sips:: no, i take that back. it is quite odd and i am not sure if i like it or not. i am usually partial to the FT Blue Demon and the Blue Monster.
    Personally i cannot stand redbull and Bawls, as much as i liked it going to Lan parties, tastes too much like Children’s Tylenol for me.

  • i dont like the new full throttle it made me sick

  • Energy Connoisseur

    Just as the name says, I try every single energy drink I can get my hands on, and for once, I wish my hands were BROKEN so that I would have not been able to grab this disappointment of an energy drink. It really tastes like Arizona Green Tea that someone dropped about 12 warheads into, then poured in some Perrier…it really is a bad combination. Labels says It had Apple, Pear, Açaí, and Blueberry……………………………………………..yuck?

    I tried this stuff yesterday and i liked it. the taste caught me offguard at first because it tastes like nothing i’ve ever tasted before. i had no problem finishing the can, but the flavor did not however live up to my expectations.

    needless to say i wasn’t really better than blue demon, which i love. but it wasn’t bad. i’ll probably buy this stuff again sometime.

    I live in Oklahoma and stumbled upon this in a store here and gave it a shot.

    The taste is whats bad about it, The aftertaste is just nasty. However after drinking it more often I started to get used to the taste.

    Plus I read up on Acai Berry’s which they use in the drink and the health benefits that stem from Acai Berrys is very good and I would definitely be willing to switch over to something healthier.

    Unfortunately I don’t think this will last on the market to long due to it’s taste, However I really hope it does but like I said it’s unlikely.

    so THIS is what satan’s asshole tastes like.

  • Ashley

    i tried this in Fargo ND and i think it tastes Amazing…i dont usually like full throttle but i really like this one its good!

  • Wolvy

    what were they thinking. At first it tastes sweet, kinda like candy and then theres a burst of sudden bitter sourish flavor, i could barely get it down. If it wasn’t like 2 bucks a can i wouldn’t of finished it

  • Drink Grass

    I had this the other day, it tasted like old mowed grass and maybe because I consume a lot of caffeine it didn’t make me feel any different, we bought it because the name’s so stupid. I chugged it because my friend could not stand how it tasted. It didn’t make me feel any different.

    Really. Not worth the time it takes to swallow it, or the gag reflex control. Sick.

  • kat

    It tastes like really bad berries.. that some one threw up and put in a can or something of that nature.. i recomend not trying it..its seriously disgusting

  • grace

    i love love love!!!!!!!! full throttle but why do people try to keep fixing things that arnt broken? the reg. full throttle is amazing! tastes awsome and gives me alot of energy , but i tried mother today and it was horrible! i couldent even drink it ! but hey to each is own i guess

  • Hmmm

    I didnt think it was as bad as people are saying. Its okay, but it does taste quite odd, even for an energy drink. If you have ever tried tha Sobe energy drink that is pomegranete flavored, i think it tastes very similar to that.

    Weird aftertaste.

    Though it wasnt horrible, i doubt ill be buying it again, i prefer FT fury and blue demon over this and the regular FT.

  • Hmmm

    oh and one more thing…

    the point of the energy drink obviously the energy…

    It didnt give me much energy, but i was very thirsty at the time of drinking it and even though it didnt taste AMAZING, it was VERY refreshing and quenched my thirst.

    If I drink energy drinks too fast, they give me a stomach ache…this didnt do that to me, so thats a good reason to like this stuff

  • Blaze

    I personally think it’s great. Kinda has an earthy taste. Reminds me of how a full throttle tastes around a campfire actually.

    I bought 3 cans to take back to school. Hail Purdue!

  • Steve

    I was grabbing a Full Throttle at 7-11, and I saw this green can. Next to the green can, was a buy a full throttle, get the green can free coupon. Taste is way too health-foody for me, but if it gives a good kick of energy, i’ll snag another.

  • Paul

    A little strange at first, but I found that I liked it and wanted to drink it again; too bad the store sold out of it and apparently didn’t re-order (see below). The acai berry extract tastes a bit like a shake made of chocolate plus raspberries, if you can imagine that, and it has the usual FT kick and additions.

    This product appeared an disappeared on my grocery store shelves within a week, so it’s obviously still a test-market product. Now I suddenly can’t find it anywhere in Metro NY area. Anyone w/tips, let me know.

    This one is quite bitter. It smells like it would taste much sweeter with a berry-sweet-tart candy scent. The aftertaste is a bit odd too. The Nestea Enviga Energy tea drinks are actually sweeter than this one!

    Where’s the sugar-free version? We’re getting only sugar free regular flavored Full Throttle in our area. Very disappointing, I would buy more Full Throttle if all flavors came in a sugar free version. I don’t want so much sugar so I buy Nestea Enviga instead of Full Throttle.

  • Buck

    I tried it because of the acai berry. Acai berry is supposed to be some sort of health kick. I enjoy the flavor. Yeah, it’s sour, leaves an after taste, but common, it’s an energy drink what do you expect. I enjoy this one as much as the other Full Throttle Products.

  • Interesting drink. It has its own unique flavor which is desirable in the energy drink market. It definitely got me buzzed up and it contains 40% juice, so you could do a lot worse than this.
