Unbound Lo-Carb Energy Drink Review
Well a couple days ago I reviewed the Unbound Energy Drink. I was quite pleased with the original so I thought I would give the Unbound Lo-carb version a try as well. The 16 ounce Lo-Carb Unbound has 20 calories and 6 total grams of carbs. As I mentioned in the previous review the Unbound Energy line up seems to be targeted at extreme sports including super cross racing, freestyle motocross, desert racing and X-games competitions. The suggested retain on this drink is $2.00, which seems to be an average price for 16 ounce Energy Drinks. These are distributed nationally at at BP and AMPM convenience stores / gas stations. If you find them anywhere else let the other readers know. Enough fluff and onto the good stuff.
Unbound Lo-Carb Energy Drink Review: Taste
I could not quite pinpoint the taste of the original Unbound Energy Drink; however, I did enjoy the taste. Fortunately for me I did not have as hard a time pinpointing the taste of the Lo Carb Unbound Energy Drink. To me it tasted like a supped up version of the Red Bull Energy Drink. Why supped up? Well there was no medicinal aftertaste and the blend of artificial sweeteners used seemed to be right on the money. The taste was a little sweeter than Red Bull, but not over the top. Now normally I am not a huge fan of drinks that taste like Red Bull, but in this case I was impressed as Lo-Carb Unbound managed to improve on the taste, get rid of the medicinal aftertaste and keep the calorie count to 20. Taste Rating 8.8
Unbound Lo-Carb Energy Drink Review: Kick
The taste was pretty good but how does the kick hold up? Well it is better than Red Bull as the lo-carb Unbound used the same energy blend as the Original. That means that in 16 ounces you get an energy blend that consists of 16o milligrams of caffeine, 2000 milligrams of taurine, Ginseng Root extract and a healthy serving of B-Vitamins. All that without the sugar. No crash, but a slightly slower delivery of energy. I can't complain, I didn't mind waiting a couple extra minutes for the kick. Especially when the calorie count is so low. Kick Rating - 8.7
Unbound Lo-Carb Energy Drink Review: Final Judgment
Good taste with a good kick. Price is average at $2.00 for a 16 ounce can. Is there anything I would like Unbound to fix? Well they are good in the taste category but I would love for them to keep the same taste and release an Ultra Unbound with about 100 more milligrams of caffeine in a 24 ounce version. Why? I like caffeine. You gotta problem with that? Final Judgment - 8.8
