Hooters Lite Energy Drink Review
I had two trains of thoughts going on when I first heard of the Hooters Energy Drinks. The first being that, great another energy drink that tastes like all the rest, basically just Hooters trying to cash in on the ever growing market. My second thought was, yeah!!! Hooters Energy Drink. Yeah, that is pretty much it. So here is what I think of the Hooters Lite Energy Drink in the taste and kick category.

Hooters Lite Energy Drink Review: Taste
Although this drink has more of an orange tint to it, it is basically a Red Bull Energy Drink clone. The only difference is that it is has a slightly less medicinal taste to it and that it is sugar free. So if you have had a Red Bull you have pretty much had a Hooter's Lite Energy Drink. There does seem to be one other thing that Hooters does to distinguish itself from Red Bull, it has a better looking can! Taste Rating - 7.5

Hooters Lite Energy Drink Review: Kick
Well it tastes the same as a Red Bull, but does it deliver a better kick? You bet. With a laundry list of energy ingredients including, almost 2000 milligrams of taurine, 220 milligrams of caffeine, 266 milligrams of guarana extract, plenty of B-Vitamins and 266 milligrams of ginseng extract (full 16 ounce serving) it pretty much puts Red Bull to shame (until you double the size and then it is closer to even). Kick Rating - 8.7

Hooters Lite Energy Drink Review: Final Judgment
With a taste similar to Red Bull and a kick that is quite a bit stronger this beverage is not too bad. However, I think the main appeal of this drink comes from the brand name. Otherwise there is really no need to try more than one of these unless they started changing the model on the can every month to match the Hooters calendar. That might be something to spark some more attention to this beverage! Final Judgment - 8.1
